Technical Questions
Our online training is hosted by Vimeo, a popular streaming service like YouTube. If you're having problems streaming the video, here are a couple things that you might want to try:
- Video is Interrupted: When the video is jumpy or stops midway through viewing, the presentation has not finished loading. This means that your connection to the internet is slow (for instance, using a DSL line), so you need to give the presentation an opportunity to load. To do this, hit play and then immediately hit pause. Wait about ten minutes and enough of the presentation should be downloaded so that you can watch it without interruption.
- The Viewing Screen is Blacked Out: Your office has a firewall that prevents you from watching streamed video. If you're office prevents you from watching streamed video from sites like Vimeo and YouTube, then you will need to contact your tech support department. They should be able to give you access that will allow you to watch the presentation. As a last resort, our presentation has been optimized for all mobile devices. If you do intend to watch the presentation from your device, ensure that you're connected to a wifi (or you will use a lot of data).
