This past week the entire Webby Awards platform, including The Webby People's Voice Awards voting system switched to Microsoft Silverlight.? The Webby Awards is the leading international award honoring excellence on the Internet, and has been sponsored by Adobe, Nokia, and others in the past.? This marks Microsoft’s first sponsorship of this event.? Webby Award winners range from celebrities and top brands to advertising and creative agencies.? In addition to providing the player for the Webby People’s Voice Awards, Microsoft’s presenting sponsorship of the 13^th Annual Webby Awards includes presentation of a Photosynth and Deep Zoom collection of the Gala event and other Silverlight-powered experiences which will be rolled out over the coming months.?

過去的這周里整個Webby獎平臺包括Webby人民之聲獎投票系統轉移到微軟Silverlight平臺。Webby獎是一項表彰互聯網上的卓越的國際領先獎項，過去一直由Adobe，Nokia和其他公司贊助。這標志著微軟第一次贊助這項獎項。Webby大獎獲得者涵括名人和頂級品牌到廣告和創意機構。除了給第13屆年度Webby人民之聲獎提供播放器，微軟贊助的第13屆年度Webby大獎包括采用Photosynth和Deep Zoom集合呈現的Gala事件和其他有Silverlight提供的用戶體驗將在未來數月推出。

?

The Webby People's Voice Awards – powered by Silverlight, gives anyone the opportunity to vote for their favorite content in the categories of Websites, Mobile, Film and Video, and Interactive Advertising, with over 120 sub-categories.? Over 150 videos entries in the Film and Video category are streaming in Silverlight today on http://pv.webbyawards.com. In just the first day of The Webby People's Voice Awards voting, the Silverlight People’s Voice experience broke all previous Webby Awards records with over 70,000 votes registered.?

Webby人民之聲獎采用Silverlight技術，使任何人都可以在網站，手機，電影，視頻和交互廣告類別包括超過120個子類中為他們最喜歡的內容投票。現在在http://pv.webbyawards.com上的電影和視頻類別中有超過150個視頻項目是用Silverlight提供的視頻流。僅在Webby人民之聲獎投票的第一天，Silverlight人民之聲獎體驗就以超過7萬投票注冊者的業績打破以往的Webby獎記錄。

Some notes on the process of integrating Silverlight into the Webby site by Laurence Moroney – Silverlight developer.?

來自Silverlight開發者Laurence Moroney 在集成Silverlight過程中的一些筆記。

?

When building new functionality for a website, often the integration of the technology is a longer, more difficult, and riskier proposition than the building of the application itself. The integration of Silverlight in the Webby awards site was an interesting exercise, run against the clock. There were a number of constraints, and the flexibility of the technology shone in being able to get around these constraints.

當為一個網站建立新功能時往往技術的集成是一個比建立應用程序本身更長，更困難更有風險的主題。給Webby獎網站集成Silverlight是一段與時間賽跑的有趣的工作。過程中遇到了很多困難，但是Silverlight技術的靈活性使得克服這些困難很容易。

?

• One constraint was that the video needed to have a webby’s bug (the semi translucent logo in the lower right corner) and a Silverlight bumper added. This is typically easy enough to do when encoding video, but this had to be done to existing video without re-encoding it. Silverlight makes this easy. The bug is added by using a transparent PNG and adjusting its opacity. The bumper is added by catching events on the <MediaElement>? to determine when the video has finished playing. Then, it plays another video file which has been embedded into the player itself. Problem solved!
• 一個困難是一個視頻需要添加一個webby的昆蟲商標（右下角的半透明商標）和一個Silverlight緩沖。如果是在編碼視頻的話這很容易解決，但這在不重新編碼現有視頻的情況下很難辦到。Silverlight使其很容易辦到。那個商標通過用一張透明的PNG圖片并調整其透明度給加上了。緩沖則通過捕獲<MedaiElement>上的事件來獲知什么時候視頻播放完了。然后，它播放另一個嵌入在播放器里面的視頻文件。問題解決了！
  
  
• Another was that the player needed to be embedded in an existing site, touching the site as little as possible, so as not to cause any regression bugs. Silverlight can do this easily, as it’s an <Object> tag, so it can be placed on a page without too much difficulty. However, placing the player isn’t enough – the player has to be initialized with the correct video, and with meta data related to the video (a title and link). Typically you might do this with an ASP.NET or PHP page that reads in parameters and generates the player with them. But how do you pass them to the player itself? Fortunately Silverlight has a solution to this in having a custom parameter list on the <Object> tag. So, for example, here’s the custom parameter for one of the videos on the Webbys site:

<param name="initParams"
value="link=http://fr.youtube.com/watch?v=Z_-uKbBYwJk,
video=http://mssilver.vo.llnwd.net/d1/webby/1000000000004265.wmv,
height=520,width=587,title=Better than Prince" />

?

• ?另一個問題是播放器需要嵌入到一個已存在的網站里，盡可能地與網站耦合少，以免引發回放bug。Silverlight可以很容易地做到這些，因為它是一個<Object>標簽，所以不難將其放到一個頁面上。然而，把播放器放上去還不過，播放器還得以正確的視頻和相關的元數據（標題和鏈接）初始化。通常你可能用一個ASP.NET或PHP頁面讀取參數并用其產生播放器來實現。但是你怎么將其傳到播放器本身呢？幸運的是Silverlight有一個做這些的解決方案，它的<Object>標簽上有一個自定義的參數列表。所以，例如，下面是網站上的一個視頻的自定義參數:

• <param name="initParams"
  value="link=http://fr.youtube.com/watch?v=Z_-uKbBYwJk,
  video=http://mssilver.vo.llnwd.net/d1/webby/1000000000004265.wmv,
  height=520,width=587,title=Better than Prince" />

  ?

?

The resulting player can be found HERE.?

由此產生的播放器可以在這里 ?找到。

?

So, thanks to the ease of integration of Silverlight on an existing site (even one built on non-Microsoft technology as the Webby awards site is), allowed us to go from zero to fully functioning, integrated functionality with only 2 people, in only 2 weeks.

所以，多虧了Silverlight在現有網站上的易集成性（即使是像Webby 獎網站這些用非微軟技術建立的網站），使得我們只有兩個人兩周時間的情況下能從零起步到完成完整功能和功能集成。
