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)
- WMV (WMV Video)

I'd be interested to see if MPF becomes any simpler to use , or rather, if it takes less code to do things. Couple of things I have come across and have a question on whether VS10/11/x will address
(1) Istvan Novak's VSXTra library is a layer on top of MPF that I think is sorely needed. Will that be one of the things addressed in VS10 ( a simpler MPF) ?
(2) Have you seen Victor Garcia (of Clarius Consulting) post on "Simple things which are incredibly hard" where he points out a couple of areas where things that should be simple one or two lines of code end up being very long winded. I guess VSXTra will help now but again, are we taking this on board for VS10(+) ?
i really hope the VS time are on the the backs of the wpf team to drive improvments into the platform
scott "the man" gu did wonderful things to the .net platform by betting on it with asp.net
dogfooding is a good thing and who of not a microsoft team can drive feedback into .net
short feedback loops are awsome
you end up with kilometers of code, which only reinforces what you are able to do today and ends up defining the status quo for everyone else. this is comfortable (and so it is understandable - there is no contempt) but there are cleaner ways forward.
I mean, seriously, wow.
I think that's the first time I've ever been accused of lacking the vitality to say no. This is a totally new experience for me.
And that comment is also lucid and gender neutral. Mind if I borrow it for my next exec meeting?
But to your point, there are few people who lament the "kilometers of code" more than I do. This isn't something you can fix overnight but there isn't any way I'm going to allow a lack of vitality on my part to slow the process down. I promise.
Just what I needed, more pressure
good luck to you.
I know I'm a bit slow, I am really interested in what you are doing here from the perspective of being able to ink annotate over the ide - we have several failed attempts at getting this going how we would like it to. We were so frustrated with the extensiblity (or not) of ides we published a paper on it. It should be in ACM DL by now, but if not it is here http://www.cs.auckland.ac.nz/~beryl/publications/CHINZ_2008_Issues_of_Extending_IDES.pdf
love to hear if you think it will be achievable with the new version.
cheers
Beryl
