In order to view and listen to the RealVideo®  recordings on this site, you need to have a computer with a sound board and either speakers or headphones. You also need the RealPlayer G2™  program installed on your computer so that your browser may use it to decode and play the video files. You may get this player (it's free) by visiting the the RealNetworks website and choosing the correct type of player for your system. NOTE: This is the same player that plays RealAudio files. If you have that player installed, you have everything you need.

The RealVideo format combines video and sound and the resulting files are highly compressed in order to be modem-friendly, so the picture is small and the quality is not as good as we would like. As the Internet bandwidth available to most users continues to increase in the coming months and years, the quality of future GA video files will also improve (and perhaps even be available live!). Meanwhile, enjoy these files for what they are - the first video images of General Assembly events available on the World Wide Web.

If you have trouble viewing our video files and you can view other RealVideo files (try NPR), write to Donald Griggs at dgriggs@who.net.
