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…”
- MP3 (Audio only)
- MP4 (iPod, Zune HD)
- Mid Quality WMV (Lo-band, Mobile)
Join James Fung from Nvidia as he shows you how to make use of vertex, pixel, and geometry shaders to add visualization to their DirectCompute applications. The following topics will be covered:
- A Quick explanation of the Direct3D graphics pipeline
- Vertex and geometry shader overview
- Binding resources and views for use by graphics stages
- Visualizing 2D array data
- Visualizing particle data (geometry shader)
- Visualizing other data (histogram, waveform, and so on)
- Example of Particle Simulation Compute with Rendering
- Example of Ocean Simulation Rendering using FFT for Compute
The demos used in this lecture are available from NVIDIA's DirectCompute SDK Code Samples page.

This was an informative lecture with some very impressive demos. Thanks!
Is the source code for the DirectCompute version of the Ocean demo available, and if so, where?
I'll see if I can get the source code for demos used in the lectures posted to the code gallery site.
(update)
These demos are available from NVIDIA's DirectCompute SDK Code Samples Site:
