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.

The Olympics video team offers you a rare chance to witness an HD production set up, step-by-step, from scratch. Starting with an HD camera, we push the signal through an encoder with a tuned Smooth Streaming configuration, into Internet Information Services (IIS) 7.0, and then out through a Microsoft Silverlight 4 player using File | New and the Silverlight Media Framework. See the same techniques behind Sunday Night Football and the 2010 Winter Olympics, only on a smaller scale. This is a one-of-a-kind session including specialized hardware; not to be missed if you're curious about HD Internet broadcast.
