Media Player Help
Where can I download
the latest version of the Windows Media®
player?
Download the Windows Media® player for
PC or Macintosh.
What do dialup and broadband mean
and what is the difference between them?
The media descriptions describe the minimum
Internet connections you need to experience
the media. Dialup requires a minimum of a
28kbs connection to the internet usually over
a modem. The content may be transferred at
a lower rate, but suitable for the connection
speed. You can always play the lower speed
content over high-speed lines. Broadband connections
(DSL, Cable, T1, etc ...) imply better overall
quality of content and is encoded at 128kbs
or higher.
If I can hear audio, why can't I see
video?
Make sure that your Windows Media® player
is working correctly, go to the Windows Media®
player demo page, and click one of the streams.
If you are getting an error message when you
try to play the .avi file, you can also check
out MSDN for a resolution.
