Hello Ted

Found this at Chessbase Cafe by Mig Greengard

Question I have a difficult question on which I haven’t found any answer on the
net and from ChessBase: How do you activate the chess media recorder function in
Fritz 8 or in ChessBase to create your own chess media presentations? I’m a
trainer in my club and this function would be a great tool for me. Lahcène

Answer Yep, this has been a big debate, whether or not to make the media
encoding software freely available, sell it, give it only to approved providers
and control distribution, or keep it tightly under control. Right now it is
inaccessible to the public, but this may change. Having a million lessons out
there for free on the Internet wouldn’t so much be a problem as the
proliferation of really bad lessons. If people see free ones that aren’t good
they may not want to buy the professional ones. At least that’s one argument.
(And if the free ones are too good people might not want to buy the professional
ones either!)
