    TTVN Windows Media FAQ
    The TTVN staff recommends that you use the latest version of the Windows Media Player.  For information on the current version of Windows Media Player, please see:


    Download Free Windows Media Player

    In addition to the Windows Media Player, you will also need a relatively late model computer that has sufficient processor speed and memory to handle live streaming video.  You will also need speakers or headphones to hear the audio.

    For a satisfactory webcast viewing experience, you will also need a broadband internet connection, such as an office local area network, or a cable modem or DSL at home.

    Important Information for Mac Users

    The Mac Safari 5.0 browser supports TTVN Windows Media webcasts as long as you have the Microsoft Windows Media plug-in for Safari 5.0 installed.

    Microsoft distributes the Microsoft Windows Media plug-in for Safari 5.0 via Telestream Flip4Mac. When you launch a TTVN Windows Media webcast using Safari 5.0, Safari will warn you that you are missing the Windows Media plug-in and direct you to the Flip4Mac site when you click on the "missing plug-in" box.

    Use the KAMU-TV link above to test your Safari 5.0 plus Flip4Mac installation.

    Please see the Microsoft Windows Media website for more information about using Windows Media on Mac computers:
