EvNet, which is the codebase that powers all of our channels, was written from the ground up. How is the codebase designed? What's the architecure? What did each developer work on? What were some of the challenges? Who are these dev geniuses, anyway? This is part two of the great conversation with the awesome folks who build and innovate Channel 9 (and several other web sites). Tune in.

Hi,

Very nice video, alot has been talk about. I wonder if you guys have any data about if a video is watched a 100 times. ow many times it it via the silverlight player ? how manytimes via zune ? It would really interest me.

Because for now I feel Windows Media Player gives me a better experience than silverlight. But Silverlight could do so much better
e.g. :

# I would love controls in full screen view (especialy drag the slide and volume because pauze is already there)
# See the time stamp of the slider change while you drag.
# I would love chapsters in video's ( almost every video has a section 'about the people' and 'about the subject' )
         # With 'This week on C9' would really be lovely to skip a part of the video where thay talk about something you acualy saw the whole video of, previously that week. Without loading that part of the video over the network.
# Adaptive Streaming ? Or does it do this allready ? (the player doesn't really show an indication)


But anywho, great work guys ! It's very nice to see you need to maintain so many site's with a so little group of people !
