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…”
- High Quality WMV (PC, Xbox, MCE)
- MP3 (Audio only)
- Mid Quality WMV (Lo-band, Mobile)
- High Quality MP4 (iPad, PC)
- MP4 (iPod, Zune HD)
- Mid Quality MP4 (WP7, HTML5)

Wow. I always learn so much from *THE* Jeff Wilcox.
@Mike Harsh:well Mike, you know i got that from you. I am sure Jeff is _very_ happy i titled this piece that way too. We all miss you very much over here in phone land.
I noticed that Jeff said that Marketplace requires you to have in-app support info. I just searched the documentation again but couldn't find it. Can anyone provide more details? My app doesn't contain said page but was accepted.
@deiruch,
I believe actually the requirement may have been removed, if you look at the changes (on the MSDN page with the marketplace requirements), the support information is no longer required... but it was added at one point in Aug 2010: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/hh184839(v=VS.92).aspx
Nice job! I didn't know about AGFX. Will have to look into it further. It is such a common pattern I think it should be a service in the phone sdk (and maybe the greater Silverlight SDK as well).
Hey Jeff, Nice Job! I really like you on inside windows phone show with great knowledge you give to us regarding the performance of windows phone applications. Is anybody know the website or link where i can download this "Inside Windows Phone" Wallpaper I really like this!
