Why should I download videos from Channel9?

- 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…”

Singapore! Are you ready for our local Sumo-Robot competition with Microsoft Robotics Studio? If you are, check out the video on how YOU can get started on the competition using the VIRTUAL SUMO ROBOT.
Getting the virtual sumo ready on your machine should take about 20 mins! We have number of additional videos to show you the basics of the robot and guidance on how to code your logic.
In this video, Shen Yizhe (MIC Tech Lead from NUS) and Chewy Chong (MS Developer Evangelist) shows you where to get the bits, how to install and how to test your installation. The step by step details can be found at Chewy’s blog (http://verychewy.com).
Singapore’s first Sumo-Robot competition will take place at MEDC Singapore 2007 on 8 June in Suntec. Make sure you sign up to check out the event in person. We will have more competitions across the island over Summer 2007 so stay tuned.
