Q
01:: When I click on the videos on the site nothing happens, all
I get is the same page. What should I do?
This is most often caused by Popup Blockers.
You need to turn off all popup blockers or add our site to the exceptions
list. This varies depending on the software. Please contact the
software provider for more information.

Q
04:: Does MSIE work with video?
Yes, unless otherwise stated our live shows and
videos work with most all browsers. However, as technology advances
some of the older browsers may not be able to keep up, thus limiting
your surfing experience. You may be required to install plug-ins
into your browser to see some content. View our plug-in help section
for more info.
To get the most out of your membership and your
overall Internet experience, it is recommended that you download
and install the latest version of Internet Explorer.
Q
05:: What is a Plug-In?
An internet Plug-In is an application built into
a web browser or added to a browser to enable it to interact with
a special file type, such as a movie, sound file, Word document,
etc.
Q
06:: How do I install Plug-Ins?
Unfortunately there is no one standard for streaming
video over the Internet. Sometimes your browser will tell you that
you do not have the correct plug-in to view the video. Here is a
list of video plug-ins and the links to where you can download them.
Don't be afraid! These applications install very easily and will
greatly enhance your viewing experience. Once you download the plug-in,
run the installer, and follow the directions. You will probably
then need to restart your computer or at least your browser after
installation. For more information click

Q
07:: I am getting wierd colors when I use IE to view videos. What's
the deal?
Your display adapter may only be capable of rendering
256 colors, or, more likely, your display's control panel is set
to 256 colors. If that is the case, set your display's control panel
to thousands/millions of colors or high color/16 bit. Select "Display"
or right-click on the desktop and choose "Properties" to correct
the problem. You'll need to quit and relaunch your browser to reset
the colors. If your video hardware is not capable of displaying
more than 256 colors at your chosen resolution, the video will still
work, but it may be oddly colored and/or look slightly fragmented.
Q
08:: Sometimes a software security alert window pops up. What should
I do?
Select the "Always Trust" box and click "OK."
Q
09:: Sometimes I get error messages, or my the video just won't
play, what should I do then?
Clear your browser's cache and restart your browser.
IE 6.0:
- Go to Tools menu
- Select Internet Options
- Click the General tab
- Go to Temporary Internet Files
- Delete files - Click OK
- Go to History - Clear History
- Click Yes
- To close window, click OK
- Close Browser then re-open it
Q
10:: The audio does not play smoothly for me. What can I do?
Users with less than a 56K connection do
not have enough bandwidth to receive both audio and video. The
software gives preference to video, therefore you should mute
your computer’s volume.
Q
11:: How can I improve overall video and audio quality?
The number one thing is to get a faster modem,
or a DSL connection! Other than that, pressing the pause button
increases the buffer size. The longer you pause the video, the
better it will look and sound once it begins playing.
Q
12:: Why doesn't the video look as good as TV screen resolution?
Huge amounts of bandwidth are required to
transmit TV quality video over the Internet. As prevailing modem
speeds increase, Internet video will increasing look better.
We all just have to be patient.
Q
13:: In the chat room, I get "Your browser does not support
Java." What does this mean?
Our Chat room requires Java be enabled on
your browser. Most Internet browsers have this option enabled.
However, sometimes the option allowing Java support gets turned
off.
How to enable Java Programs in MSIE:
Tools > Internet Options > Security
> Internet/Custom level > Reset custom setting to "Medium."
> OK
Q
14:: Why do I have to sometimes scroll right and left?
Chances are, your screen resolution is at
640x480. This site was designed so that even at a screen resolution
of 800x600, those with monitors less than 17" would have no
problems with viewing or reading text. Please try changing your
screen resolution to 800x600.
Right click on your desktop > Properties
> Settings > Screen area: 800x600 > OK
Q
15:: How do I download pictures to my hard drive?
Position your mouse over the photo, click
on it with the right mouse button, then choose "Save Picture
As."
Q
16:: Why do pictures take so long to load?
Many sites are designed for at least 56K
modems. If your modem is slower than this you may want to consider
purchasing a new one. If you have a 56K, make sure your modem
is configured correctly in your connection to the Internet.
Please contact your internet provider for more information.

17:: My question was not answered, can I e-mail you?
