   The speed is impress­ive. The response from click­ing play like­wise. And a large screen size as well. Is all that thanks to VC-1?

   firstly, thanks for watch­ing

   VC-1 encod­ing and the speedy code on decode. Not bad for alpha code.

   Can you tell me the browser/platform? Ta

   Installed the Sil­ver­light beta and gave it a whirl. Noth­ing. Tried again and the same. Then I had a brain­wave that “this is MS tech” and thought I should there­fore try in MSIE 6.0 (on my PC) instead of Fire­fox 2.

   Video star­ted dis­turb­ingly quickly. Flushed my cache and veri­fied the speed with a second view­ing. Quite impressive!

   Screen size was on max area and motion inter­la­cing in the video was vis­ible. I downs­ized the MSIE win­dow and it was much bet­ter / resolved. Hard to know how to set the video to 100% size for an exact match for pixels on playback.

   Video con­tent was oth­er­wise smooth. Did you have this at the full 25fps?

   Look for­ward to it being able to run on Firefox.

   @Andrew Smith: This should def­in­itely be work­ing on Fire­fox — in fact, it should work on Fire­fox or Safari on Mac as well. I have seen it work­ing on Fire­fox (not Nick’s spe­cific video, but other Sil­ver­light videos).

   @Nick: look­ing swish — although had a chuckle that you are host­ing it on a linux server even though the cross-platform sup­port for Sil­ver­light is Win/Mac.

   @Andrew Smith
   – yes, I noticed the inter­frame inter­la­cing. going to work on this over the next few days

   - video should work in FF2

   - the UI of the player is simple, with not all the niceties of 100%/200% size etc. Going to exper­i­ment with dif­fer­ent play­ers now I know the EmePlayer/emeplayer case bug in the May release

   - Video kept at 25 fps all the way through.

   @AndrewParsons: never really thought through the irony. Now you explain it, you’re right. This is a whole dif­fer­ent Microsoft!

    Hi all. Video now play­ing in FF2 here. Per­haps it just required a restart of the browser?

    Again, most incred­ibly impress­ive and will pos­sibly give flash video a fun for its money. .… and this is com­ing from someone who isn’t ter­ribly biased towards Microsoft.

    These but­tons are the next/previous chapter but­tons. As I haven’t defined chapters, they go nowhere.

    Note this tem­plate is from Expres­sion Media Encoder, not self-written… so find­ing out was a mat­ter of dig­ging through the XAML of the player.xaml
