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)
At the MVP Summit a few weeks ago, Italian MVP Alessandro del Sole was so excited about the new WPF features in Visual Studio 2010 that he asked me if he could interview
Milind Lele himself to get the low-down -- I said sure!
Milind is a Program Manager on the Visual Studio Pro Tools team. In this interview he chats with Alessandro about the new WPF improvements in Visual Studio 2010 for building business applications. This time Milind shows off the new Visual Studio UI and the new WPF data grid as he quickly builds a master-details form against an Entity Data Model using the new RAD drag-drop data binding features for WPF.
Also check out Milind's blog post on this topic for more information.
Enjoy,

They start the application at 10. Minutes in the video and it tooks 30 seconds to run.
What are you guys doing with visual studio.Its going slower in every new version.
Is this a tradition in the Visual Studio Team?
Where the hell is that walking ego Scoble? Videos like this make me miss him.
Not much into the RAD databinding, but thanks for the video anyway!
No comment on the content except that I like the new looking bits of the UI, the old looking stuff like some dialogs and scroll bars seem a bit legacy with the new relaxing blue stuff in there. I hope the looks stay cool. Office 2007 was disappointing in that the RTM looked worse than beta with the awful light/baby blue looks.
edit: I'd like to note that by "baby blue" I mean what people mean with baby blue, based on overwhelming evidence with image search. Wikipedia claims baby blue has GB values of "FFFF" but whatever wikipedia is using as a source is obviously either outdated or wrong in terms of actual usage of the term.
Hi guys,
. Heh, I'm not a video editor, I'm a code junkie so I appologise for any roughness. You might try just downloading it and playing it outside
the SL player to see if that helps.
Thanks for the feedback. The build we were showing you was "hot off the presses" so to speak and was also accessed through TS. I wouldn't focus on the perf at this point, it's the tooling that we're trying to show you. As for the video quality I have to render it this way so you can see the screencast at the same time and also so it doesn't end up being a 2 gig download
Cheers,

The code that is generated gets the data synchronously. That's the plain, simple data load code. Certainly it needs to be modified to fetch data more effectively. The method really depends on how the app is structured. Sometimes you would want to fetch it asynchronously. At the least, you do need to 'page' the data, thus get a block at a time.

Your observation is correct. The presentation uses a snapshot, pre-release build. It's not optimized. Public bits will certainly be optimized and much faster.

Wow, it's like 2003 all over again! Rudimentary data grid, slow clunky drag and drop programming, fighting the design surface, and code gen that inserts code into the same file I am supposed to use with "do not edit" comments... isn't that what partial classes are for?
I realize WPF is the future for LOB... but it looks like a really DISTANT future right now... WinForms smokes this thing for LOB.
hi!
in yourself,
Improvements to course? about visual basic
