The Chess Media System, developed by ChessBase, is capable of displaying combined chess moves and video. While you are looking and listening to the grandmaster, the moves which the grandmaster enters on his computer are displayed on your board simultaneously. Plans and threats are shown with arrows and threatened squares and structures with coloured fields. Learning how to play chess has never been made this attractive before.

 

 

Radio ChessBase (or TV ChessBase) reguraly broadcasts in the room Broadcasts. There is also a room called Chess Media System in which you can follow lessons or see a report of an important tournament. Open the gameslist to see the Chess Media Files. The files are transmitted as "streaming video", so you are not able to store them on hard disk. If a payment (in ducats) is done, you can watch that same video for a period of 24 hours.

 

You can open/close the Chess Media Window in the Board window - View - Chess Media.
