31 XE3 quick videos in 31 days - Oct1 - Using the Windows 8 Style

This month, I will create 31 short videos in the 31 days of October.  Each video will be focused on a new capability in RAD Studio XE3, Delphi XE3, C++Builder XE3 and HTML5Builder.  I will try to keep the videos under ten minutes and hope most of them will be five minutes or less.  All of the videos will be available for download on Code Central.  This first video covers using the Windows 8 Style in your VCL and FireMonkey applications.  The video also shows how easy it is to convert existing Delphi and C++ VCL forms to the Windows 8 Style using the built-in form converter.

    It’s quite challenging doing a new video everyday - good luck. So far I’ve managed 6 videos on XE3 - far from 1 / day. Although my commercial video on XML in Delphi (Part 1) is recorded using XE3.

    Why is everything so secret with you guys. Can’t you just make it public instead of requiring people to log in or create membership to view it? I have a membership, but i refused to log in to see the video. I also believe there are new people who will bypass this video because of the same reasons.

    I think you should put in a Zombie theme somehow.

    Only audio is coming in the mp4 file. In the video I can only see RAD Studio XE3 wallpaper. I’m using VLC media player.

    Deepak - the first and last 5 seconds have no audio for the opening and closing slides. The rest of the MP4 should play audio and video. I tried Microsoft Media Player, Media Player Classic and VLC Media Player 2.0.3 and all 3 played the MP4 okay on my computer.

    No secrecy - I just wanted to see how many people were downloading the videos (Code Central tells me the downloaders). We are also going to make these videos available on the Embarcadero YouTube channel with open access. It is faster for me to put them up on Code Central while the web/marketing team gets them on YouTube.

    Shane - the first 5 videos are now on the Embarcadero YouTube channel. I have updated my blog posts to include the links to each of the videos. Downloads are still available on CodeCentral. Thanks for watching and the suggestion.
