Remarks

A MediaPlaybackItem can be passed directly to a player such as MediaPlayer, MediaElement or MediaPlayerElement. Or, you can even pass the player a list of multiple media playback items using the MediaPlaybackList class.

For how-to guidance for working with media items, see Media items, playlists, and tracks.
