Do you have any recommendations on great video courses as a complement to books for learning C++?

A:
Wrath Lands is a project about creating a text based RPG in C++. It's not really something you'd want to learn C++ for the first time with, but it is basically a guy starting from scratch and creating a game, dictating and trying to explain what and why he's doing it while also dealing with errors.
I found it to be entertaining at the least with some good pieces of information. Definitely not a standard though.

Have not used these and I'm not sure about international shipping, but these are partly taught by Yashavant Kanetkar.
Don't let the 550 price throw you, it's in Rupees so about $13 US.

I haven't watched any videos with him so I'm not sure, but I thought he was great at explaining things in one of his books so it's likely he brings that to the videos too.

The Stanford CS deparment has several courses that you can watch (free) online. Of iterest to you may the Programming Paradigms lectures, which cover an intro to C++ among other topics.
MIT also appears to have a similar course available.
