Propeller Webinar Archives

This is a collection of audio/video recordings from past Propeller Webinars.  These webinars were originally hosted live with a participating audience that attended via their computer.  For the benefit of all, we have provided the important parts of each webinar as a series of short topical clips in both WMV and MP4 formats.

Would you like to attend a live webinar? View our webinar schedule for more details.

Viewing Tips: Many of these clips consist of computer screen captures at a resolution of 1280x1024 to demonstrate software, source code, etc.  For the best experience, they should be viewed on monitors with a resolution of 1280x1024 (or higher) and a fast Internet connection (or each should be downloaded in its entirety before viewing).

 

WMV Files:  (½ resolution video) MP4:  (full resolution video)
View at double-size (200%); press Alt+3 in Windows Media Player, or Ctrl+4 in VLC Media Player.  We recommend viewing with Windows Media Player or VLC Media Player. View at normal size (100%); press Ctrl+3 in VLC Media Player, or Alt+2 in Windows Media Player.  We recommend using VLC Media Player or Quicktime, although Windows Media Player can be made to play MP4 files as well.
