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 MP4 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 MP4 file.
  • If you have a Windows Phone, iPhone, iPad, or Android 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…”

In Part 3 of our special series on Xamarin, James Quick shows us how to add data to power our app. For our backend, he’ll use Azure Mobile Apps - a service that packages common services to mobile applications like data, authentication, push notifications, etc. – and then he’ll create a simple “ToDoItem” table that we’ll read from and write to in our client Xamarin Application using 100% shared code.
