How do I download the videos?
- To download, right click the file type you would like and pick “Save target as…” or “Save link as…”
Why should I download videos from Channel9?
- It's an easy way to save the videos you like locally.
- You can save the videos in order to watch them offline.
- If all you want is to hear the audio, you can download the MP3!
Which version should I choose?
- If you want to view the video on your PC, Xbox or Media Center, download the High Quality WMV file (this is the highest quality version we have available).
- If you'd like a lower bitrate version, to reduce the download time or cost, then choose the Medium Quality WMV file.
- If you have a Zune, WP7, iPhone, iPad, or iPod device, choose the low or medium MP4 file.
- If you just want to hear the audio of the video, choose the MP3 file.
Right click “Save as…”
- MP3 (Audio only)
- Mid Quality WMV (Lo-band, Mobile)
- WMV (WMV Video)
Channel 9 correspondent, software developer and technical evangelist, Ernie Booth, recently sat down with Jim Thill and James Clarke of the
Microsoft Expression Encoder team to talk about today's (September 5th, 2007) release of the product.
James and Jim demo live encoding, switching between sources, adding metadata and markers. They also show off some crazy new templates they will be shipping in the near future...
Coolness.

Need a demo for designers that are not developers to show how easy it is to publish an app or video using Blend and/or Expression Media Encoder.
The flicker isn't because of whatever the refresh rate is since it's an lcd. If it wasn't matched to the lcd you'd see tearing not flickering.
The flicker is because the dude has dimmed the LCD down from full brightness setting and there's chip modulating the backlight so it's not always lit.
This is my pet peeve with CCFL backlighting because if you're sensitive to it you can feel/notice it on all CCFL lights when dimmed which is why Halogen/led lighting is much more preferred.
And if you're really sensitive you can still feel the CCFL effect even if it's at full brightness. I'm not sure whether it's due to the wavelengths of the light or if there's actually still some flickering even at full brightness that you can't pick up without very expensive equipment.
I'm not sure how they handle dimming in LED backlighted displays but I believe it's not pwm.

I love the A/B preview feature with the yellow line and splitscreen. It's like the Adobe "Save For Web" plugin but for video and a bit fancier.
Ben has a good voice for this kind of stuff and kind of sounds like a less goofy Deke McClelland.
