Hi,

I used to train on endgames with chessvideos.tv training:

http://www.chessvideos.tv/endgame-training/king-and-queen-checkmate.php

but it seems to not be working lately?

Do you have news on what happened to that site?

thanks!

The server that runs its engine is down.  I tried it with Firebug running to look at the AJAX and I saw this:

GET http://www.chessvideos.tv/gp/?f=8/8/8/8/Q1K5/5k2/8/8&m=Kc4d5&c=0
503 Service Temporarily Unavailable

oki saw it thanks!

I don't know if they figured out that server is down. If you agree I can add your comment above so that they can check that out. Or you prefer just chime in.

Btw, do you know similar resources for practising endgames?

From the admin's comments I'm sure they're aware of the nature of the problem.  I forgot what my login for that website is, anyway.
