We will provide a live Webcast (not a Webinar) to enable receiving the FEMP First Thursday Seminars at your desktop computer. You will not need a login or a telephone number to dial into for your audio. This webcast is complete with audio and video of the live satellite broadcast, plus a separate window with the  presentation slides. Be sure and give yourself time to try out the test links before the day of the Seminar.

 

These Webcasts will be archived after each live broadcast and available 24/7 from a link on the FEMP Training website. The links to all Live Webcasts will be available on this website by the day of each course. The Webcast can also be downloaded to your computer after the live broadcast.

 

Things webcast users will need to know/have/do:

  1. Test compatibility of the user’s system well before the broadcast using the test links below.  (Call IT support if they have to give you permission to view streaming video)

  2. A computer with a broadband connection (at least 512kbs per user on the network) The best viewing results will be with high speed connections.

  3. If using Internet Explorer on a PC they will need either Windows Media Player installed or the Microsoft Silverlight browser plugin.

  4. If using another browser (officially only supports Firefox and Chrome) or a Mac they will need the Microsoft Silverlight browser plugin.

  5. Be sure your computer speakers are turned on and the volume turned up before the broadcast.

  6. Test your system http://esupport.fcc.gov/index.htm?job=streaming_media

Note: If a user has questions or problems with testing, please check the FAQ first, then check with your IT support, and if more help is needed send an email to webcast@listserv.utk.edu or call 865-974-7561. Another source of help is the MS support http://support.microsoft.com/kb/265523
