7.1.4.1The Slide Bar

The Slide Bar shows:

•the progress of the video downloading,

•the position where the video is playing and

•a controller you can move to any position in the video.

There are two ways that the videos can be viewed.

1.The whole video is downloaded to your computer (pseudo-streaming)

The yellow line in the Slide 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 slide bar to any position on the yellow line.

2)The video is streamed (true streaming)

The yellow line will not be displayed in this case.

You can move the controller 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.
