Using Gestures in Metro Apps - c#

I have a MediaElement on my main page and I want to add gestures support in my app. More exactly I want to play/pause the movie when the MediaElement is tapped, increase/decrease the volume when the is a slide up/slide down, or jump to another position in the movie if there is a slide right/slide left. How exactly can i do that ?
My app is designed for Windows Store, so I want the simplest method that I can use for a Metro app. Also I have to say that my application is written in C# and I used XAML for the page design.

About Camera UI in window phone 8.1

How to access to Standard Camera Capture UI from code in winphone 8.1?
I tried FileOpenPicker to open Picture Library (added button to access camera on navigation bar). Is there any another way to access Camera Capture UI than using FileOpenPicker, for example- custom UI with class MediaCapture or is it not a good idea to use MediaCapture for simple capturing image? It mean, Can I call to Standard Camera Capture UI if I know what happen when click button camera in FileOpenPicker?
Sadly, there isn't one in Phone 8.1, see here: CameraCaptureTask missing in Window Phone 8.1 runtime???
You can use the FileOpenPicker to let the user choose an existing image or if they so choose, they can capture on in the moment by tapping the camera button in the app bar.
Windows Phone 10 is set to bring this back, as far as I know.

How to create a rotating image slider in Windows Phone 8.1 RT?

I'm building a simple image viewing app. I need to display images in a control which user can swipe and move to the next one until the end and then moves to the first slide. WinRT FlipView does not behave like this it stops from the last image. Is it possible to create something like that manually? I'm not familiar with gestures and tried to detect the swipe and do it.But I couldn't manage to get the image sliding effect with the finger like it happens in FlipView. Anyone?
I would like to recommend Syncfusion controls for WinRT Xaml.
They have an excellent Carousel control that may meet your requirement.
User can swipe to move to next & previous slide.
