With the green screen I thought you might have done a tribute Leslie Neilsen, a la Police Squad.

Background the classic Frank Drebin car journey.
Or fool with the TrickPlay Users, one talks faster the other slower. And the end do the false ending where everyone freezes except for one.
Hey, trick play! I had no idea that'd be in there. I've been waiting for this feature on Channel 9 since... being on Channel 9. I always download the videos and play them at 1.4x speed, this'd allow me to just use the Silverlight player right away.
Also maybe *cough* this *cough* *cough* can be reopened at some point.
Also: Dan should grow that mustache again for the next C9 Halloween video, because man that looked terrifying.
"HTML5 is dead" hahahahaha
Can't stop laughing:)
HTML5 is dead.
LOL. Just f***ing kill H5, MSFT. God I hate those JS junk apps. Make it happen.
Like the "junk app" that let you post here telling Microsoft to kill HTML 5? Did you not notice that you were on a Web site?
Welcome back Brian!
As promested, the interview from TechEd Europe is now up at http://blog.callemin.be/?p=460 (for all interviews) or http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GYP5Ls-IF6w&feature=player_embedded for just yours.
Thanks again for taking the time to sit down and talk with me! And great show!
@AdamSpeight2008: Man, we should have you write a script for us, that'd be hilarious!
@Bas: We'll definitely add it to Channel 9 once SL 5 officially releases.
VS Feature Pack 2 isn't available for MAPDD subscribers.
Another thing you can do with the green screen is displaying what just recorded as the background. Then you get that cool and trippy effect of the infinite tunnel.
