DECEMBER 2006
The video can be displayed in a number of
different sizes. To the right are shown three
different bitrates with their recommended
video sizes.
For the sizes smaller than 320 × 240 (which
is the maximum size for the main video),
the video is displayed inside the player area
– it will not fill up the maximum main video
playback area.

The whole video is downloaded to
your computer before it can be viewed
(pseudo-streaming)
A yellow line in the Play Progress Bar
shows you the download progress. When
the video has completely downloaded, it is
ready for you to play by moving the slider
or clicking on any item in the Table of
Contents.
You can still start playing the video before
it is completely downloaded but you can
only move the slider to any position within
the yellow line.
The video is streamed (true streaming)
The yellow line will not be displayed in this
case.
You can move the slider to any part of the
video to view it. The video will stop, load
the requested part of the video to your
browser (called ‘buffering’) and then begin
playing.
You can also click on an item in the Index
to view the video from that location

Examples of Video Display Sizes
You May Increase the Size of the Displayed Video
If you have selected a video playback option
less than 320 × 240 pixels, the video will be
displayed inside the player and not fill up the
maximum allocated space within the main
video playback area.
If the main video is already displayed at its
maximum size (320 × 240 pixels), the
Enlarge
video button will be greyed out.
For other video resolutions, click
to increase the display size, and click
to restore to the original size of the video.
The image quality will be reduced if you
increase the display size.
