@avinatbezeq: I just jumped there and tried the High Quality WMV (http://ecn.channel9.msdn.com/o9/te/NorthAmerica/2010/wmv-hq/DEV322.wmv) and it played fine with audio and video for me (video being just the slides, but that is all there is for that session). Did you try just clicking on it there on the page?

I don't know how long this has been in place, but I just wanted to say that I like the thing that happens when you mouse over people's display pictures. The filling background was a nice touch, it prevents massive boxes from popping up all over the place when you inadvertently move your cursor down over the display pics.

I suppose I should work on my MSDN achievements now.

glad you like it... turns out I only have 10 pts in the MSDN system myself and the one achievement you get by just making a post

If only it counted all my time on gotdotnet.com, I'd be rolling in the points!!

@BorekB:There is a bug here I guess, but I doubt I can get it fixed quickly enough to unblock you. Can you make a new C9 account (using the /register page that you get sent to) under a temp name (like BorekBTemp) and then email me with that name and I'll fix your original account up for you.

@MizardX:As you noticed, this is a 'feature' or limitation of Silverlight depending on how you look at it... and we can't do anything about it. Sorry!

@evildictaitor: We don't use your IP address for anything. We *do* store cookies, but we do so by just asking the Live ID DLLs to write the cookies out for us (it is a method on the library). In the past we've seen this happening because of the Live ID Helper 'add-in' in Internet Explorer, but that may not be what is happening here.

When you request the feed in IE, your browser is most likely sending along an 'Accept-Languages' header that says you would like to see the 'cs' language. So we return all entries that are that language. When you write code to get that feed, you are not sending the accept-language header, so we do our default filtering down to only english content... and you see nothing.

If you want to get the same results either way, request this feed: http://channel9.msdn.com/Tags/cz/RSS?lang=cs

Confusing? Yes... I'll try to post back later and explain more, but this should unblock you as to why your code didn't seem to be working.

@jonathanditya:Where did you get that sample from? That will help us track down the right people to help you out

@Digital_V31: and... we just fixed the underlying issue by releasing v1.1 of the extension, instructions on how to update are posted here:

Glad you got it working though!!!

@davewill: at the moment we have no plans to purge entries. We have noticed that the profile page gets slow when the # of queue items gets up pretty high (we were testing with > 100), but we would probably find a different solution to that issue rather than ever change a person's queue.

@Maddus Mattus: You didn't happen to notice what item is was, did you?

I'll try to repro, but the item in question has left the feed I guess because it is not throwing that error anymore.
