[vip_students] Re: Audio and video problem

Hi Eleanor,
Adobe flash - whether as macromedia flash or ShockWave Flash - appears to be more widely in use than Silverlight. Silverlight is in amongst the Microsoft Updates, if you go to the Windows update site, or at www.microsoft.com/
I generally just install a Flash player when i'm prompted that a certain content I'm interested in needs it to play or display properly. I had to remove ShockWave Flash, as it caused numbers to appear at the top of pages in pdf files; though whether this was just an artifact of JAWS screen-reading or something else I don't know. I believe I haven't got Silverlight.
If you google those terms, you'll come up with some useful and possibly informsative results.

Hi,

Silverlight is the Microsoft equivalent of Adobe Flash.

Now, there is another player called Winamp which (I believe) if you're
into Internet audio/radio and video, you'd do well to have.  (It plays
file types that other players won't.)  It can be got from
www.winamp.com/
or from the Download A Player link at

www.acbradio.org/

and possibly from
www.whitestick.co.uk

Hi Paul,

You also need to ensure that you have the flash player and Silverlite
apps
installed.

You could test out if you have the flash player installed by gong to
www.youtube.com and trying to play a song on there. If the song plays
then
you should have the flash player installed.


Paul.

Hi everyone, ever since i got a new PC a few months ago i have been
unable
to play various audio and video web sites such as blind radio an the
easy
links site amongst others. I can go on to the site but when i try to
play a
video clip or a radio station using the link all i hear is (internet
explorer can't display the web page). I never had this problem with
my last
pc. I have the reel player and media player installed. I know it is
probably
something simple. Can anyone help.
Paul Mahoney
