MAX 2008 NA Session Recording

DIGG IT!     14 Comments Published Saturday, November 22, 2008 at 12:59 PM .

Last week at MAX in San Francisco, the MAX team coordinated the digital recording of over 290 hours of the session content, about 4TB of video. We will be releasing this content FOR FREE, WITHOUT GEO-RESTRICTION ON ADOBETV starting the first week of December. We plan to release 20 sessions per week well into 2009. Additionally we will be posting all videos immediately to the MAX NA Group on Adobe Groups for the exclusive benefit of paid attendees. All attendees will be invited to the MAX NA Group Monday morning.

The teams are working round the clock to get the video content posted online. The goal is to benefit the ecosystem with the latest educational material as soon as possible. As only 5000 attendees could enjoy MAX NA onsite, we plan to reach 2 Million by providing the session content for free online. To reach as many designers/developers as possible we chose Flash for an end to end video solution. Onsite at MAX NA we captured using Flash Media Live Encoder and Flash Media Server and published content to our video partners Digitally Speaking, Brightcove, and Akamai.

Thanks for being patient as we get all this content posted.

Thanks,

Ted :)

    Those who, regrettably, missed MAX salute you and all those working hard to make this content available.

    Request: Searchable SWF first please. :-)

    That's wonderful news Ted! I hated to miss MAX this year so it will be great to catch up virtually.

    OUTSTANDING! Thanks Ted and everyone helping bring MAX, at least the sessions, to those of us who work for cheap companies who don't realize the benefit of their developers rubbing elbows with the majority of other Adobe developers in the world.

    I loved MAX this year, though there were many sessions that I've wanted to attend but were being in session in parallel to the one I was sitting in.

    You mention all attendees will be invited to the group, however, I attended and never received an invite on Monday. :(

    We sent out about 25% of invitations before we ran into a login bug. We have fixed that last week and are sending out all remaining invitations to the Adobe MAX NA grout this week. Sorry for the delay.

    Ted :)

    Any updates on this yet? I'm eager to watch everything I missed :)

    I'm looking forward to these broadcasts. It looks like they've been delayed? I hope the recent layoffs are not to blame!

    Hi Ted, wow I've watched a few of the session so far so good. But there are a few things that could've been better.

    1.- When there are Q&A I can't hear the question, so It's just confusion you could've installed mics in order to hear to the people that ask questions or just add captioning so we'll know what are they talking about.
    2.- Even I enjoy screen capturing I think I would've like better to have first seat attending, where I could watch the big screen, see who is talking, look around when there's a presentation, and so on.
    3.- I live in a country where high speed bandwidth is not a common stuff so it takes a bit of time to download the sessions, and sometimes I thinks it's unnecesary to have a 200mb video file being download just to watch a ppt with voice, I know that you use a technology in order to capture every single click and all that stuff but there're a few presentation where that technology is complete unnecesary, because there's an static page for 2 or 3 minutes.

    Thanks. Keep on inspiring.
