Multimedia Presentation Viewing Tips

The RealAudio Player will control the slide changes. Do not use your web browser navigation buttons while the audio is playing. To control the audio, use the buttons on the RealAudio Player:

• Click on "||" to pause the audio playback.
• Click on ">" to resume the audio playback.
• Click on the black square to stop the audio and go back to the beginning.
• Use the horizontal slider to fast forward or rewind the audio.
• Use the vertical slider to control the volume.
  Note: You may also need to adjust the volume control on your speakers.

Graphics must be turned on.

• In Netscape Navigator, click on Options, Auto Load Images.
• In Mosaic, click on Options, Preferences, Document, Display Inline Images.

In Netscape Navigator, turn off the Directory Buttons to enlage the viewable area on your screen. Click on Options, Show Directory Buttons to remove the check.

On a slow connection, the slides may not download quickly enough to keep up with the audio. If this occurs, click on the || pause button on the RealAudio Player and wait until the slide is completely downloaded. Then, click on > to resume the audio.

The audio alone should play over a 14.4 modem connection. If sound is dropping out, your connection does not have enough bandwidth. Try the following:

• Pause the audio and wait for the slide to download. (See above.)
• Close all other programs on your computer, especially other communications programs.
• If you use NCSA Mosaic, try another browser.

If you don't get any sound and your sound card is working correctly, you may be behind a firewall that is blocking the RealAudio transmission. See the RealAudio Player Information.
