Play RTSP/MMS/Http live video feeds in WPF

I'd like to pull a live video feed into WPF but the MediaElement doesn't appear to support these protocols. An example video stream is here (BP oil leak live feed):

http://mfile.akamai.com/97892/live/reflector:45683.asx?bkup=45684

Are there any solutions for playing live streaming formats in WPF?

I had hopes for using the VideoLan DotNet component but it appears to be incompatible with the latest VLC releases: http://vlcdotnet.codeplex.com/

Looks like this isn't currently possible in Windows 7:

If you're talking an IP Camera, point the WPF Chrome browser to it:

(you'll need to license the Awesomium wrapper if it's a commercial app).

If it's just webcam stuff, use the WPF MediaKit:

I've run both in Windows 7.
