That was the course preview time limit, if you click on the course name. I've figured that out already (and watched the first videos, including the long one, very impressive, btw :) ).

Thanks for the link one more time, I'm going to watch all the 5hrs (and tempted to buy the whole course to follow it just for pleasure, but my wife probably wouldn't appreciate this at the moment; the price is more than reasonable, though).

You do not need to specify a credit card to see the 5 hours of free content. In fact you don't even need to create yourself an account on Udemy. You can just click on any lesson marked "Free". And there isn't a time limit on watching any one of the lessons. To make sure nothing has changed since I last checked, I just turned on Module 1 Lesson 1, which is an hour and 20 minutes, and the playback doesn't appear to be stopping after 8 minutes. Where did you hear of a "5 minute limit"?

[heyheyhophop]

Oh, I see it now, they are at the bottom of the page!

Many thanks.

Thanks, that's what I need possibly (and I already had both your definitive series books' amazon pages in other browser tabs, it appears :) ).

One question, do I need to specify a credit card to get access to the 5 free hours? (after the initial 5 minutes end)

[Ken Holman]

I have posted 5 free hours of this video lecture at CraneSoftwrights {dot} com {slash} links {slash} udemy-ptux-online {dot} htm ... the total length is 24 hours but I've marked the two introductory modules and the annexes as free access.

No prob, I was searching YT for some dense intro videos on XSL, XSLT, XPATH and FO

(basics which I'll attempt to learn in the next couple of days).

Btw, if anyone can recommend a good lenghty video on Docbook, I'll very much appreciate it (as Docbook hackig is what I'm supposed to do armed with all that info).

Best regards from Russia

Thank you! I appreciate you taking the time to explain that for me. Hmmmm ... I've never been compared to a robot before.

He means Text-to-Speach, I think :)

Skip to 8:01 for the useful part of the video

What is a TTS bot? I'm the writer of all of the content and I'm the presenter in the top right-hand corner. This was recorded over a 5-day period.
