Troubleshooting web streamed programs

Use this link to get Windows Media Player if you do not already have it on your computer.

If you are using an old (version 6.4) player or are viewing in a computer running Windows NT or Windows 98, you may experience a delay before you see and hear the webcast due to the fact that your Media Player is trying to download and install the latest codecs required for this presentation.

During the webcast, if you stop seeing or hearing the presentation, try clicking the "stop" button, then click the "play" button. This will attempt to reconnect to the stream. If this does not work, please close your Media Player and click the link on the web page again.

Advanced Users: If you are using a computer behind a home network router or a corporate firewall, check your router or contact your administrator to ensure that Windows Media live streaming is enabled using the MMS protocol over TCP and/or UDP. Our servers will attempt to deliver the stream using HTTP over port 80 if MMS fails, however, your firewall may drop the connection prior to HTTP delivery if it is configured to block live streams.

If you are still experiencing trouble, you may email open@doa.nc.gov
