My popup blocker won't let me watch live streaming. How can I fix that?
Pop-up blockers may prevent the video player from opening. Setting your pop-up blocker to allow pop-ups will fix this problem. Please see your pop-up blocker's help section for more information. Many popup blockers can be modified via a "settings," "options," or "block/allow" button.
Why does the live streaming sometimes stop or pause?
The most common cause of a pause or stop is Internet traffic congestion. If this problem persists, try closing the player, then re-launch it.
What about firewalls?
Some corporate networks and Internet Service Providers block video transmissions. If you cannot see live streaming (even though your system meets the system requirements noted above), you may want to contact your Internet Service Provider or Network Administrator to see whether a security firewall is blocking video transmission.
Can I download and save video clips from the live streaming?
No. Live streaming is just that — live. You are viewing the events as they are being broadcast in the plenary hall.
I can open the player, but cannot see any video.
A browser error may have occurred. Try closing the player, then reopen it. Your Internet Service Provider may be experiencing problems with their servers. If you cannot view other pages, and if the problem persists, you should contact your Internet Service Provider. If you can access the player on another machine or other people can view it, it may be a problem with your browser cache.
