Watching a conference on a portable device (iPod or Zune)

Watching a conference on a portable device (iPod or Zune)

If a conference has downloadable outputs suitable for portable devices, you can download the conference and then watch it on your iPod or Microsoft Zune device. You need to use a computer as an intermediary device and then load the conference to the iPod/Zune as you would any other file. After the conference has been loaded on the device, you can watch it as often as you like.

Site managers can specify that downloadable outputs should be created in the Template used for a conference before the conference is created. After the conference has been recorded, site managers or conference editors can add outputs by clicking Edit and then Manage Outputs for the conference. See Managing conference outputs.

To watch the conference:

1.Go to View Conferences > Recorded and click Download for the conference.

2.Select the required format: - one of iPod video, iPod audio, Zune video or Zune audio.

3.Browse to the directory on your computer in which you want to save the conference temporarily. Click Save.

4.From your computer, load the conference on to your portable device.

5.Play the conference on your portable device as you would any other file.

Sending a link so others can watch a conference

Click Share and then Email in the Recorded conferences page to share conferences with others. The Share link only appears for conferences with streaming outputs. (Note that the fact that you can watch the conference does not automatically mean that the person you send the conference link to will be able to watch it: this depends on the conference permissions.)

If the conference requires a password for security, a prompt is displayed when the link is used.

Note: The link uses the Frontend address specified in Site settings, or if it was not defined, the URL you typed in to your browser to log in to the Content Server.
