Comment1 Chandan Datta, July 7, 2007 at 9:44 a.m.:

Will this be available as a wmv(Windows Media) rather than only flash streaming sometime later ?


Comment2 davor (staff), July 9, 2007 at 9:32 a.m.:

Hello,
sure, the wmv videos will be available next week.


Comment3 jp, August 3, 2007 at 2:14 p.m.:

Just wondering: it is now several weeks after next week and I cannot find a wmv version. What am I doing wrong?


Comment4 peter (staff), August 9, 2007 at 6:19 p.m.:

Sorry about the wmv videos...
We are experiencing some technical problems with disk drive enclosures that we were using during the recording (our external Maxtor tera-byte drives keep overheating and failing causing data loss). It is a sad thing: we will have to completely repeat the whole tape-recording/editing/processing work and it may take a few weeks before it is done. Stay with us...


Comment5 Ajay, August 31, 2007 at 12:30 p.m.:

The flash video continues to load for ever! with no progress. It directly starts at 50% and never moves ahead!
Please post the wmv video asap
Thanks,


Comment6 mikaiel, September 17, 2007 at 9:51 p.m.:

can some one fix the wmv file, or convert the flash to wmv, or tell us how to view the flash. There is noway I can view this video.


Comment7 Ben, September 19, 2007 at 5:42 a.m.:

She is cute, haha


Comment8 Tony, September 27, 2007 at 12:02 a.m.:

I agree. She is pretty cute. =)


Comment9 keller, October 9, 2007 at 10:41 p.m.:

Pls put WMV videos asap!


Comment10 commentator, October 20, 2007 at 7:12 p.m.:

Yeah she's cute, but she's also smart.
And people, stop being pushy about putting up WMVs. sheesh.


Comment11 ML Geek, November 3, 2007 at 11:31 p.m.:

Sorry to post again... can you please also post the pdf of the presentation slides. Thanks a bunch.


Comment12 J, November 8, 2007 at 4:31 p.m.:

Well done. She did a fine job.


Comment13 Shashank, November 10, 2007 at 11:18 a.m.:

Well ,keep up the good work,,, (though i am really waiting for download'ble version of these)

P.S::yes ,she is cute


Comment14 Ramayya, November 19, 2007 at 9:33 p.m.:

How about making the videos available in Open Standard Format such as MPEG. Since WMV is a proprietary format and is not easily viewable on Unix and Linux platforms.


Comment15 macias, November 21, 2007 at 2:08 p.m.:

Great lectures, but please put easy way to download them in some normal format (mms is possible to download, but it is not an easy way).


Comment16 Ruhi bey, November 25, 2007 at 5:15 a.m.:

Great lecture.

Hell yeah, she is cute !! :)


Comment17 suresh, November 26, 2007 at 10:48 a.m.:

Is it possible to download? if it is let me know how to download


Comment18 Jagadeesh, November 30, 2007 at 8:41 a.m.:

If the download is available in http, it'll be great.
We have tough firewall rules on MMS / RTSP.


Comment19 Deepak, December 26, 2007 at 3:08 p.m.:

I think you should also provide a direct link to download these videos in a regular way as a file rather than streaming (i know it will be costly for you to run such web servers, but may be you could do this)...

Or may be something like Google Video Download link...

This will enable and promote sharing among users downloading the video with other people (and this way, it will also act as a mean of reaching more & more audience for your website, as your website address is embedded in very video)....

And isn't Real (.rm) media preferred format for streaming videos on web (have seen wmv as format for streaming videos on researchchannel.org only other than you people. MIT, Berkely etc. all use real media for streaming....Real media takes less space on hard disk for same duration of video...thus saving both disk space and bandwidth)

And finally, these videos are really great....keep up the good work....


Comment20 Gaurav, December 31, 2007 at 4:56 p.m.:

hey... seriously you should consider making them available for download... i have a slower connection at home than at my univ... and the difference is of hell and heaven... please consider putting the videos as downloadable files...

one more CUTE vote :P


Comment21 keta gonzalez, January 2, 2008 at 11:38 p.m.:

but it is easy to record the stream with mplayer.
for example:
mplayer -dumpstream mms://velblod2.ijs.si/2007/pascal/bootcamp07_vilanova/keller_mikaela/bootcamp07_keller_bss_01.wmv -dumpfile /somedirectory/keller_mikaela_01.avi

to get the mms:// adress look at the page source of the corresponding video page

keta


Comment22 Terence Toh, January 5, 2008 at 11:29 a.m.:

just download the free Real Player, and select on the file settings so that Real Player is the default program to play the streamed file. The beauty of Real Player is that it's got a built-in 'Download This Video' from streamed files. I've tried it and it's perfect.


Comment23 Terence Toh, January 5, 2008 at 3:07 p.m.:

or just type 'internet video recording' into the Google search and voila...


Comment24 Argentens, January 5, 2008 at 6:40 p.m.:

Bien changé depuis "dedans-dehors"...


Comment25 macias, January 12, 2008 at 1:01 p.m.:

Keta true, but downloading streams has a lot of disadvantages, there is no resume for example. Even if you download the file, you cannot be sure you get everything. You have to use special scripts to handle mms,instead of built-in download feature, etc etc.

Btw. just in case, a little script that maybe helps:

#!/bin/sh

if [ -e "$2" ]
then
kdialog --title "File already exists" --warningyesno "Overwrite?"
if [ $? -eq 1 ]
then
exit 1
fi
fi

mplayer "$1" -dumpstream -dumpfile "$2"


Comment26 MB, March 18, 2008 at 8:08 a.m.:

Tres jolie!


Comment27 Error!, March 30, 2008 at 8:50 a.m.:

Slides for PART 4 DO NOT MATCH the talk! The slides are from part 3 ... even for part 4 ...


Comment28 Chris, May 25, 2008 at 1:14 a.m.:

Sorry for students at your university, bootcamp or wherever it was recorded! The Lecturer can't speak English and she is really bad at explaining the concepts!


Comment29 Guru, May 29, 2008 at 6:13 p.m.:

Is Superb.....


Comment30 Eric Hamilton, June 22, 2008 at 10:38 p.m.:

This is a great topic, and she does a good job of explaining it.

I can see why this is a popular lecture. ;)


Comment31 not good enough, July 2, 2008 at 4:07 p.m.:

the lecture was not good enough. poor english.


Comment32 anon, July 10, 2008 at 6:36 p.m.:

This is a great resource but incomplete with notes for talks 3 and 4 are missing or pointing at wrong slides. It is very hard to make notes as the camera often points away from the board or misses the bottom equations during critical parts of the explanation. I recommend reading Bishop alongside it as many of the concrete examples are in there too.


Comment33 anil, August 29, 2008 at 5:33 a.m.:

Superb lecture. Ofcourse she is cute; and smart too. Can't blame the cameraman. Thanks for the lectures.


Comment34 Hoshin Gupta, October 6, 2008 at 7:45 p.m.:

The slides for Lecture 4 are missing. Can you post them please? Thanks.


Comment35 sreenu, November 11, 2008 at 9:30 a.m.:

sir please send the basics of ps


Comment36 ALI ADAM, November 20, 2008 at 8:49 a.m.:

I listen the one of the teachers truely i can'nt express how i find it


Comment37 tassos, December 1, 2008 at 12:03 a.m.:
