Adding Effects

MediaElement enables you to add both audio and video effects with its AddVideoEffect and AddAudioEffect methods. (You can later remove them by calling RemoveAllEffects.) You pass a string ID, a Boolean that states whether the effect is optional, and extra configuration that can be null if it doesn’t apply.

The Windows Runtime currently includes just one built-in effect: video stabilization. Its ID is "Windows.Media.VideoStabilizationEffect" but you can just use the static VideoEffects.VideoStabilization string property instead. You therefore add it to a MediaElement (named mediaElement) as follows:
