Is there any ASP.NET web control specialized in displaying video? - asp.net

Is there any ASP.NET web control specialized in displaying video?
Thanks

Media players are very easy to set up in Silverlight, which embeds easily into ASP.NET. Silverlight provides an ASP.NET control as one option for embedding.

Are ASP.NET mobile views only for ASP.NET MVC? or can they be used in plain ASP.NET as well?

I know in ASP.NET MVC you can have mobile views and do things like Index.mobile.cshtml and _Layout.mobile.cshtml and the server knows to serve these views/pages to mobile devices rather than Index.cshtml and _Layout.cshtml, but can this also be done in plain ASP.NET websites (not using MVC)?
Note : I am using razor syntax in the plain ASP.NET website.
Thanks in advance.

UPDATE :
To clarify, I am aware of the various browser detection methods. My question is specifically about whether mobile views in the form Index.mobile.cshtml are available in plain ASP.NET.
UPDATE (Functionality now included in ASP.NET latest release announced 18th February 2013) :
Talk of the devil.. this is now possible in a recent release..
Scroll down the page to the heading 'ASP.NET Web Forms Enhancements'
http://weblogs.asp.net/scottgu/archive/2013/02/18/announcing-release-of-asp-net-and-web-tools-2012-2-update.aspx
Take a look at this, brief description of mobile support for ASP.NET Web Forms:
How To: Add Mobile Pages to Your ASP.NET Web Forms / MVC Application
My understanding is that the alternate view modes support native to MVC4 is a result of the WebPages2 used by MVC, and is currently only used within MVC to resolve locating Views via the View Engine (combination of VirtualPathProvider and DisplayModeProvider). This is because views served up via MVC and requests via the URI do not map to physical locations on the server to serve up files from. ASP.NET on the other hand serves up files directly based off of the URI, and does not depend on a virtual path provider the way MVC does.
My guess would be that ASP.NET does not support automatically serving up alternate files based off of the same framework that MVC uses. That being said, I'm sure it would be possible to derive an implementation based off of the of the logic of VirtualPathProviderViewEngine that could achieve a similar result with ASP.NET, however I know of no implementation that does this currently. Best suggestion would be to see if you can find usages of DisplayModeProvider and see if anything pops up.
I'm not an expert so feel free keep looking but I thought I would offer what I can.
So I have come to the conclusion that this is not built in functionality in plain ASP.NET.
Though there are (IMO less elegant) alternatives.

Flash or Silverlight video in Razor?

How can I play a Flash or Silverlight video in ASP .NET Razor? I can't find any information on this online.
Razor is just a server-side language that creates HTML.
You can embed videos the same way you embed videos in static HTML.
For flash you could use the SWFObject script and for Silverlight use the following.

ASP.NET AJAX Library

Coolite facilitates DialogBox, Window, form, etc. (i.e. most of the controls similar to Desktop GUIs). Is there any other library like 'Coolite Toolkit' for ASP.NET ?
Free or fee? Telerik and Infragistics both have extensive control libraries for ASP.NET that include both server-side and client-side components. Most, if not all, of these controls would work with ASP.NET AJAX. Microsoft hosts a community control gallery with many more on their ASP.NET site.
Free use;
there is BackBase Ajax Framework built in Java but can be used through script blocks.

Silverlight in ASP.NET

Add a new Silverlight application to your existing solution. Here's an MSDN article which shows how to integrate it with your existing website, so building the Silverlight application will deploy the Silverlight control to your ASP.NET website's Client_Bin folder.
To add a Silverlight control to a webpage in your site, you can reference the Silverlight test page that's automatically created for you, or you can use the ASP:Silverlight control, which will take care of loading the Silverlight object.
You only need to copy the XAP file to your site and reference it.
When you create a blank SL project you get the boiler plate code for the ASp .net site for free.
Having an ASP .net 3.5 SP1 enabled site, you can asp:Silverlight control:
Going without any ASP .net sugar control (you can use it on ie an php page), you can use an Object intance inside a div:
Soirry tried to paste code samples but didn't work well :-(.
Microsoft does not recommend using the ASP:Silverlight control as of Silverlight 3.
There's a great article at MSDN about how to include Silverlight using the <object> tag, or using the silverlight.js library: Integrating Silverlight with a Web Page. This helped clear up a lot of confusion for me.
This makes it much easier to provide a more customized experience that fits in better with the rest of your application.
(There's also a decent article explaining how to interact with the Silverlight control once it's embedded in your page: HTML Bridge: Interaction Between HTML and Managed Code)
