Download

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…”

If you watched the Mix 11 keynote, you probably saw Coding4Fun's mad scientist Clint Rutkas driving around in his Kinect-powered, gestured-controlled recliner. In this Show Us Your Tech I talked to Clint in the middle of building it and again after the keynote. Clint shows us inside the hardware, shows us the software, and tells us about some of the design challenges and changes he made during the build.

    so at the 9 minute marker, i said it was hard to turn, it was hard since i mounted the wheels in the wrong pattern.  I had them in an X but it should have been in an 0 shape for the treads.  I corrected this after we got back and Jellybean can turn on a dime now Smiley

  • martinminemartinmine I see you're a coder, I'm pretty much a coder myself

    Haha! This looks amazing! Big Smile Good job!

  • RupreetRupreet

    pretty awesome!!

  • ivan_ivan_ g

    I wonder what was the total budget for this thing.

    I know that frame and wheels will run up to $2000 depending on a model and vendor.

    Could you give us some ranges? Wink

    Wheels were $710, total frame cost would be about $1600
