Video Of Scott Guthrie's Newest Presentation: 'First Look At Visual Studio "Orcas"'

Last Thursday, Scott Guthrie visited Belgium for the first time. Throughout the day, he had several meetings with customers, partners, MVP's and the developer VIP's and a journalist. In the afternoon he gave 2 talks for the Belgian Visual Studio User Group. Needless to say that the user group was very proud to host the world première of Scott's newest presentation where he gives a first look at the new features in Visual Studio "Orcas" for web developers. There were about 250 attendees at the event, but I can imagine more people will be interested in this presentation. As the VISUG board did a tremendous job in getting everything arranged for this event in an extremely short time (less than 2 weeks!), I decided to help them as a community member, took my digital camera with me and recorded the entire session. And thanks to MSN's Soapbox, you can now view it here...

Enjoy!!! (PS. If you want to skip the intro from VISUG, start the video at approx 5:00.)

Update 7 February: I've been talking with the people of Soapbox and they are analyzing and trying to fix the issues causing the crash. Meanwhile I've asked the local MSDN Belgium webteam to provide streaming hosting for this video. You can watch the video recording of Scott's presentation here (you can also find the stream so that you can view it in Windows Media Player directly).

Is something wrong with the feed? My IE crashed twice while watching this around 8 min timeline. Also I would love to see wmv download so I can view at my leisure as the length of the presentation is quite long.

Kris: Soapbox doesn't publish the WMV download url. The embedded player works also fine at my end. You can try the direct viewer: <http://soapbox.msn.com/video.aspx?vid=ca256f33-6659-405b-ac8d-75a43d04ba83>.

Could you please share the video file to dowload?

If you have no space on the web to upload it I can create an FTP access for you so people who would like to have the copy will be able to download it.

Thank you.

Jakob, Alexey, sorry guys, at this moment I can't share the 80MB video in WMV format. Jakob: AFAIK you don't need a Soapbox invitation for viewing the video if you click the link I provided earlier (http://soapbox.msn.com/video.aspx?vid=ca256f33-6659-405b-ac8d-75a43d04ba83).

Thanks everyone for the feedback. Since some of you seem to have problems with watching the video through Soapbox, I'm going to try to publish the video in another way today. For those who would like to know, it works fine for me using Windows Vista RTM and IE7 but didn't had a chance to test it with Windows XP yet.
