In this short video, CSD MVP Aaron Skonnard from PluralSight guides the viewer through installing the WCF REST Starter Kit. He gives an overview of the components, capabilities, and samples in the starter kit. Then he shows how to build your first RESTful service project and how to run and test your service using Fiddler.

For additional information on the WCF REST Starter Kit, please check out the WCF REST Starter Kit Dev Center on MSDN and the .NET Endpoint team blog. For more information on classes offered by Aaron and the PluralSight folks, check out their catalog of instructor led courses and new online courses that cover a variety of Microsoft technologies, ranging from .NET v3.5 to WSS to BizTalk server.

Hi Joe,

I gave it a try both by clicking on the 'Screencast' pic and using the 'Download' -> 'Screencast' link, and both worked out for me.

My initial guess is you hit a hiccup on server/network as it 'streams' (well, downloads ahead of the playing) and it just ran out of cached WMV to play. Did it continue to give you trouble?
