When you play
streaming media content in Microsoft Windows

take longer than the expected time to start
playing. To
fix this problem,

Windows Media Player 10. |
2. |
On the
Tools

HEAR
the videos in streaming audio with a 28.8 Kbps or higher
internet connection (click audio) and Media Player versions 7,
8, 9 and 10. The videos will begin usually within a minute
of clicking your selection.
When prompted whether or not to play the videos in the Internet
Explorer window, select "NO." Right clicking the mouse lets you
change the size of the viewing screen.

How to download the MPEG
versions
|
|
|
For some reason, simply right
clicking the MPEG link and selecting "Save target
as" can result in very slow downloads. By
using a "download accelerator," you can download
these files much faster in times ranging from 1 hr
30 min with slow DSL (756kbps) to 28 min with slow Cable
(1.9Mbps).
You can use a store-bought accelerator
program if you like, but I would recommend the freeware program
"Free Download Manager," available though C/Net by
clicking here.
