Entire 34 Minute Video:
Broadband
Best quality. Use if you have a DSL, cable, or another high-speed connection.
Dial-Up (n/a)
Use only if you are stuck with a dial-up modem speed. The 34 minute video will display much smaller, and have far less picture quality. (More about this)
Individual Segments
Broadband
You may selectively view certain portions of the video that interest you.
Dial-Up (n/a)
You may selectively view certain portions of the video that interest you.
QuickTime Version
Audio Only
Yeah, Yeah, we know.
But hey, if you are unable to get your video working, then this audio version is pretty good alternative.
Common Video Issues
Browser Problems
The video formats we have available should display in all standards-compliant web browsers. However, we've found that you will obtain best performance if you use Internet Explorer 6.0. Almost every computer sold today includes this browser. If you are using America Online, best to minimize your AOL window and then open Internet Explorer (that's the little blue 'e' icon on your desktop) and watch the video using that browser.
Picture / Sound Quality Looks Terrible or is Too Small
If you are connected to the internet via a dial-up modem, particularly a slow or crummy dial up connection at a layover hotel somewhere, then there is nothing you can do about this. The video is 34 minutes long, and internet video generally displays very poorly on most dial-up connections.
Either use high-speed broadband instead, or try reconnecting with your modem--- as that may sometimes improve your connection speed. Or, if all else fails, play the audio-only version.
No Audio
You must have a working sound card and your computer speakers turned on with the volume set at an appropriate level. If you still receive video without audio, verify that your system audio works by playing another audio application and/or checking your speaker and headphone wires.
If you have any trouble accessing the video, please contact your Local Council Office.
