Technet video link loads wrong demo for "Configuring a profile synchronization connection to a SQL Server database in SharePoint Server 2010"

Question

On this page

http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/hh269603.aspx

there is supposed to be a link to a video to "Configuring a profile synchronization connection to a SQL Server database in SharePoint Server 2010" but when you click it the video is about "Viewing reports and scorecards on Apple iPad devices (SharePoint Server 2010) ".  Does this demo still exist? It's supposed to cover creating external content types from data in Microsoft SQL Server tables, creating synchronization connections, and mapping user profile properties.

Answer 1

Yup, you're right.  Not really a SharePoint question but what you can do is scroll to the bottom of the page.  There's a "Was this helpful" radio button.  Click "No" and leave your feedback there.

I had the same problem, but check out this page, http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/hh269603.aspx and click on the  For an optimal viewing experience link to watch the video.  If you click on the watch now link just above that you get some other video as you stated.  Took me a while to find this but thought I'd share in case others are looking for this video, which by the way is spot on for adding LOB data to sharepoint profiles.
