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)

Good to know that VS 2010 B2 will have the keyboard shortcut for the zooming feature. Once I was looking for it everywhere and couldn’t find but now I know I just wasn’t here
Guys. You need to update the site. The TFS offer is $10.00 USD per user per month if you are in BizSpark. We offer no free TFS hosting.
Thanks

Hey Paul, apologies for this, we read Martin's post incorrectly, this was our fault and we've updated the description.
Apologies again,

We are an ASP.NET shop and have created automated functional tests using WatiN to drive the browser, MbUnit as the testing framework, and Gallio as the test runner. WatiN lets you test a site exactly as it appears in the browser (IE, with Firefox and Chome in beta) and MbUnit/Gallio let you create great reports that include screenshots and rich text formatting. Highly recommended.

Hey, can you stop letterboxing the WMV videos? Those black borders are annoying and I don't know of any devices that have problems with widescreen WMV9 playback.
How do I go about figuring out why I can't download any C9 videos anymore? It only works on my Windows 7 machine, not on my (Vista) notebook in the same network where it worked just fine only a few weeks ago.
Interesting stuff, I'll look into it
Loved it!
The Dream.Build.Play games look all nice! Sweet competition.

Hey Bas,
Just thinking out loud here, maybe we make this into a "debug your network" piece? If your'e interested, let's setup an hour this week that works for both of our time zones and figure it out
