Good

This guy is good. I have forgotten my math but I still could follow his speech. I got it even if I didn't understood the mathematical notation...

3 Danny, April 5, 2007 at 4:25 p.m.:

Why is there no sound when I play this usind Window Media player 11?

4 Sped, April 14, 2007 at 6:46 p.m.:

Nothing happens when I click on the thumbnails. :(

5 Mikel, April 15, 2007 at 5:14 a.m.:

No sound with WMP 11

6 Mikel, April 15, 2007 at 7:44 a.m.:

For those having trouble with WMP, try opening the video via Winamp or some other program such as VLC. Choose open URL and then put: mms://velblod2.ijs.si/pascal/2006/mlss06_taipei/roweis_sam/roweis_sam_00.wmv

I hope this helps.

Regarding the sound issues...

We have found out that a possible cause could be the Windows Media Player 11 issues with videos with Mono sound. If you are experiencing the same problems while playing videos on http://www.cnn.com/ than that may be it.

Please check the following web pages for a solution

If you find a solution, please let is know so we can share it with others or fix something on the VideoLectues site (if applicable).

Another very well presented lecture by him.

Perfectly and efficiently taken......Hats off....!!

12 Ashish, February 15, 2008 at 4:48 a.m.:

Sam has done amazingly good job at explaining topic in a very simple manner!

13 jbgao, April 14, 2008 at 9:07 a.m.:

Can any one tell me what is the best way to download the wmv file so that I don't need to be online every time when I want to watch it?

it seems to me the link simply invokes media player to play without a way to save the file.

Many thanks

Jbgao
