Info for viewing videos and slides:

The talks have copies of the powerpoint slides alongside- which are time synchronised to the videos of each speaker.
You can choose to watch the video only - by clicking on the image, or for optimal viewing

we suggest you click on "View Powerpoint slides" this will open a new browser window alongside the video. Make this window half your screen size (drag window edges),
and start the video at the same time as the slides.

The video is streamed from our server - so the video is not downloaded onto your computer. Depending on your broadband connection you may have to wait a few seconds for the stream to play.

Having problems viewing?

The plugins that are needed by the browsers are Flash Player and Powerpoint Viewer-(get these by clicking on the links). If you have Microsoft Office installed on your PC the Powerpoint viewer will load automatically.

Your browser eg. Internet Explorer 7&8, or Mozilla Firefox should handle these videos and slides without any extra downloads. If they dont you may need to get the more recent versions of your browsers.
