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)
- MP4 (iPod, Zune HD)
- Mid Quality WMV (Lo-band, Mobile)
The Rx team has received a lot of questions about Rx and concurrency, thread-affinity, timers and performance. In this video, Wes explains the major changes in the latest release of Rx.
These changes drastically improve the user experience. Your feedback inspired the future direction of Rx.

"Now this thing ... is loathsome. Besides being loathsome, it is also ..." I can't wait for the opportunity to use this line.
This solution looks great ... I was thinking about time too and when you mentioned the TestScheduler it was right with my train of thought - virtualized time. Can you vary the frequency of threads separately, or in groups - like if you know certain operations can go off and run as fast as possible, or if you were accessing some network resources and you want to buffer certain results etc...? It's like quantization of sorts isn't it? I mean, you take a set of concurrent operations which are continuous in "wall time" and isolate them together into there own discrete time, so I think quantization fits, no?
You certainly could vary the speed of "virtual threads" independently. We have only begun to investigate the possibilities here. I encourage you to play around with it and see what you can come up with.
Well done, this is very nice. Makes me really want to start using Rx more.
Incredible work.
well done on this thanks again.
This is a great video Jeffrey. Thanks for posing this!
