Webcast System Requirements:

The Mediasite server streams video and audio to your web browser using Microsoft's streaming media technology.  Presentations can be viewed using Internet Explorer (IE 5.0 or newer) running on a PC using a 9x version of the Windows operating system (Win 95, 98, ME, 2000 or XP).  Presentations will run best if you have the latest version of the Windows Media Player installed on your PC, although older versions (V 6.4 or newer) will also work. 

If you are using an older version of the Windows Media Player, however, you will still need the latest codec (v 9) to hear the audio portion of the presentation.  If you can see the slides and the video portion of the presentation, but you cannot hear the audio, it is likely that you must upgrade your codec. 

If you are logged into your computer with administrative privileges, you should automatically receive a prompt to download this codec when the presentation starts (unless you disabled this feature).  If you are not logged in with administrative privileges, you will receive either an "Access Denied" or a "You do not have sufficient privileges..." error message.  When logged in to your computer with administrative privileges, you can either download the newest Microsoft Media Player from the Microsoft Media Player website or upgrade your current Media Player codec from the Microsoft Media Player Codec website

If you plan to watch a presentation using a Macintosh computer, it can be viewed using the last release of Internet Explorer (V 5.2.3) on a Mac running OS X.  Your Mac should also have the Windows Media Player installed (V 9).  You can download the Microsoft Media Player from the Microsoft Media Player website.  If you install the Windows Media Player on your Mac OS X computer, you will need to restart IE for this to work properly. 

The presentations cannot be viewed using Mac OS 9 since it does not support version 9 of the Windows Media Player.  Presentations cannot be viewed using the Safari web browser on a Mac.
