The DevExpress Channel’s video content is getting an IDE makeover.
New videos and screencasts will use the Visual Studio 2010 IDE with DXperience v2010.x release.
Some of the popular older videos are also getting re-recorded to show off new and changed product features. For example, this week you’ll see old (and some new) videos about the versatile and multi-platform reporting suite: XtraReports.
In case you didn't know, from DXperience v2010.1 onwards, XtraReports works on these platforms:
- ASP.NET
- WinForms
- WPF
- Silverlight
Till then, check out all the great content on the DevExpress Channel:

Did you know that you can watch DevExpress videos on your iPhone or iPod?
Just add the DevExpress Channel’s RSS feed to your iTunes. By adding this feed to your iTunes, you’ll stay current on all the videos because they’ll be automatically downloaded for you.
Just follow these simple steps:
1. Open iTunes, click on the Advanced menu item and select ‘Subscribe to Podcast…”
2. In the URL box, enter http://tv.devexpress.com/rss.ashx and click OK.
3. And that’s it, you’re done!
You now have the DevExpress Channel added and iTunes will start getting the latest videos. If you want the past videos, click on the ‘Get All’ button. Warning: there are a ton of videos on the DevExpress Channel:
Use Any RSS Reader
This RSS feed is not limited to just iTunes. Add the feed to your Google Reader, Bloglines or any other RSS feed aggregator.
Available Videos
While the RSS feed publishes all the videos, iTunes will only display the videos that have a corresponding M4V file. Some of the videos do not have this format yet. However, Jeff our videographer is working hard to add this format in the coming weeks.
Add the DevExpress Channel’s RSS feed to your iTunes right now and enjoy watching the screencasts on your mobile device.

View Original Article Recently, we added a super-useful little feature so you can skip around in the videos without having the video fully loaded. All the videos on the DevExpress Channel are now converted to support the new feature.
How does it work?
- We inject ‘metadata’ into the video as a final step in the production process.
- You click to any point in the video and the player will start streaming from the new cue point. Take a look at the shot of the 9 minute screencast below. I’ve clicked to the 4 minute mark and video player started streaming from this point forward. Sweet!
Who does #2 work for?
Everyone! Especially on those really long videos. For example, if you had to stop watching a video half way through and wanted to continue where you'd left off, you're just one jump point away.
But wait, there’s more…
One of our internal teams is hard at work on a complete site redesign. The new site has a lot of your suggestions like a playlist feature built-in. Stay tuned for details in the coming weeks.
