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…”
- Mid Quality WMV (Lo-band, Mobile)
I love my job! One of the nicest part of it is… having accessing to a whole bunch of people smarter than me (I take comfort that I’m better looking). During a visit to Redmond a few months back, Microsoft Research showed the attendees of our internal TechReady conference a project called “GroupShot”. It allows you to take a bunch of not-so-good photos, pick out the best parts of each and make one good photo.
It comes in really handy when someone in the photo has their eyes closed or doing something annoying like bunny ears. In this short little video, I show you a demo of how to take a bunch of “wrong” photos to assemble one “right”. I also show you how to make funny composites and even how to make something disappear.
You can download MSR’s GroupShot here and have a play: http://research.microsoft.com/projects/GroupShot
When taking group shots in the future… make sure to take multiple shots for use with GroupShot!
