I heard someone saying they were having trouble setting up Smooth Streaming for IIS, so I wanted to try it myself. If you just want to see Smooth Streaming work, visit http://www.smoothhd.com/ for some sample demos. They'll adapt to your bandwidth and look as nice as they can. If you want to fake a low-bandwidth situation, you can use the player at http://www.iis.net/media/experiencesmoothstreaming and play with limiting the bit rate. Step 0: Got IIS? I've got IIS 7 because I've got ... [ read more]

Today I’m pleased to announce the availability of Release Candidate 2 for ASP.NET MVC 2 . After receiving feedback from our last release candidate back in December, we decided it would be prudent to have one more release candidate that incorporated the feedback. You can read the release notes for everything that changed, there’s not a whole lot. The biggest change in this release was described by Brad Wilson in his blog post on Input Validation vs. Model Validation in ASP.NET MVC . Also included... [ read more]

One question that came up recently during my mid-year review is how am I measuring customer satisfaction with the products that I work on? For example, how can I measurably demonstrate that customers are happy with the work we are doing on ASP.NET MVC and that my team is responding to customer feedback? Umm, I can’t? At least not right now in a measurable manner. I don’t have any such metric and I’m not sure how reliable any metric I might come up with will be. But perhaps that’s simply due to a... [ read more]

This post applies to any ASP.NET app that uses .aspx files, whether WebForms or MVC. When you write an aspx/ascx/master file (I’ll just say aspx for here on, but it applies to all), it gets compiled dynamically by the ASP.NET runtime. Note that this is true whether you use a Web Site or a Web Application Project (WAP). While in a WAP, most of the code is built by Visual Studio, the aspx pages themselves are always built dynamically . Normally, when you work with aspx files, you only ... [ read more]
