The event may have only been available for live access.
The event you are trying to access has concluded.
The event may no longer be available.

128-bit Encryption is required for your operating system and browser.
To determine if your browser has 128-bit encryption:
- Go to the "Help" feature at the top of the browser window
- Click on the "About" selection from the drop-down menu
- The parameter you need to verify is titled "Cipher Strength" for Internet Explorer.

10. The sound works continuously, but the video freezes

This is usually because of network congestion.
Network congestion manifests itself in different ways:
- The sound works continuously, but the video freezes.
- The program continually stops and rebuffers.
- The player automatically stops, requiring you to click play again to resume.

Please refer to FAQ "The media player automatically stops or it continually stops and rebuffers" for reference on network congestion.

11. The media player automatically stops or it continually stops and rebuffers

Network congestion can occur at any time due to the following problems:
- If you are connecting to the Internet through a slow connection, or over a congested wi-fi or cellular (mobile) network.
- You are trying to access an event during peak Internet traffic hours.
- If you are connecting to the Internet from a mobile device.
- There is heavy traffic on your company network.
To alleviate network congestion, you may want to consider the following:
- Upgrading to a faster connection
- Minimize the amount of applications you are running while accessing the event
- Try accessing the event during an off-peak Internet traffic period.

12. I can't hear anything (or the sound is very faint or choppy)

Please make sure you have an up to date modern browser, that your speakers are connected, and the volume is turned on.
Verify that your speakers are plugged into the power outlet, turned on and up, and connected to the audio port of the computer.
Your speakers or headphones must be plugged into the sound card not into the sound out jack of the CD-ROM drive.
If you still cannot hear any audio, check your system volume settings and the volume on the media player. If your system is properly set-up, then try adjusting the system volume settings:
- Click Start, Settings, and then Control Panel.
- Double-click on the Multimedia Icon.
- On the audio tab, turn up the volume.
If it is grayed out, this is indication that the system is not configured for sound.

13. I can access the event, but I cannot view the slides or the slides are not flipping

Try refreshing the presentation by either hitting F5 on your keyboard or closing out and relaunching the presentation.
If you have joined an event, which has already started, please wait a few moments.
The slides are either synchronized with the event and will flip with the next timed marker in the presentation or are user-controlled and can be flipped using controls located below the slides.

14. My computer crashes when I try to access the event

Verify that your settings meet the minimum event requirements.
Try clearing your browser's cache and restart the event.

15. I can see the video but I can't hear anything (or the sound is very faint or choppy)

Please see FAQ "I can't hear anything" above.

16. I can't see the test video

Your media player may not be installed correctly or your player may not be configured to stream the format of the event.
Verify that the player has been installed correctly and check the player settings to verify that it is set up to receive the stream format.

17. I can see the test video but I can't see the event video

This may be related to incorrect proxy settings in the media player.
Please see FAQ "I can't see the test video" above.
Or, you may not have permission to access live streams.

18. The video is choppy

Video may be received in a choppy format due to network congestion.
Please refer to FAQ "The media player automatically stops or it continually stops and rebuffers" for reference on network congestion.
