Q. I see a broken image/plug-in symbol - am I missing
something?
A. Perhaps. If you don't have a recent version of the RealPlayer
Plug-in or the Windows
Media Plug-in, you won't be able to see the video clip. Generally,
if you don't have the plug-ins, most browsers will let you know
that you cannot view the clip, but in certain cases a broken plug-in
image will appear instead.
Q. I hear sound, but I don't see anything on
the screen.
A. We apologize for this - PBS.org is a very busy site, and
bandwidth may be limited at peak times. If you try back later, you
will probably be able to view the video without problems.
Q. I see
some of the video, and then it says "Buffering."
A. This is also due to heavy traffic. If you try back at
another time, it should be fine.
Q. Why don't you support QuickTime?
A. We are trying to phase in support for QuickTime, but unfortunately
many of our older programs are not available in that format. QuickTime
is an excellent format, but it's difficult for us to serve at the
moment; IC&T Group does not support QuickTime at the level they
support Windows Media and Real Player. We are looking for alternative
ways to support it for a greater number of our streamed seminars.
Q. Can I watch the entire show at once?
A. Sorry, not yet. We plan to implement this soon, but due
to browser compatability issues we are unable to offer it at the
moment. In the meantime, we suggest using the navigation at the
bottom of the window to move between chapters.
Q. How come I can't play this in the RealPlayer/Windows
Media Player/QuickTime player instead of in this web page?
A. IC&T Group is following our company guidelines which
require us to play video in a browser window. |
