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…”

Internet Explorer 9 allows developers to more tightly integrate their websites with the Windows 7 task bar and start menu. With Pinned Sites, you can add a website to the start menu, define Jump List tasks, create custom Jump List items, provide visual notifications on the task bar with icon overlays and even add custom thumbbar buttons on the default thumbnail preview. See how this functionality works without any markup changes from you, and then dive deep into enhancements you can add without changing your sites layout! This session will provide best practices and guidance from Pinned Site that have already been built. We’ll see how this is done through the IE F12 developer tools.
