About User Preferences

All authenticated users have access to preferences where settings such as default category and the number of items displayed on the screen can be modified.

To change your preferences, click the Preferences link at the top right of the screen or on your user name displayed at the bottom left of the screen. The changes will take effect the next time the user logs into the Content Server.

Your Display Name as displayed at the bottom left of the screen before your User Name.

The number of Items per page can be set to 5, 10, 20, 50 or 100.

The Category selection sets that category as a default. On logging in, only conferences belonging to that category will be displayed.

Choose Automatically determine my Internet speed so that when you click on the Play link, the Content Server will select the best size recording for your Internet connection.

Conferences where all available recordings are too big for the current connection will display the following bandwidth info warning in the interface: ‘Your bandwidth has been determined at a lower rate than is necessary to display this conference recording properly. You may experience problems viewing this conference.’

User Preferences Window

Manually select the Speed of your internet connection here to override the automatic bandwidth detection. Using this option will deliver the optimum size conference (if available) for the selected speed. For conferences that have a higher bitrate (speed) than selected, a bandwidth warning will be displayed in the conference listing page. Users may not experience optimal viewing if their connection speed is significantly lower than the speed they select.

Results of the Client Environment check are displayed here, showing if Windows Media, QuickTime and Real Media plugins have been detected and are scriptable, and also the version of Javascript installed.

Green ticks indicate the conference formats that you can view using the Content Viewer. A red exclamation mark indicates that the plugin has not been installed, so conferences in this format cannot be viewed on your computer.

On a Macintosh, only conferences in the QuickTime (MPEG4) format can be played. The Windows Media and Real Media plugins will not be checked and will display a red exclamation mark.

The Client Environment check is run the first time you log in to the Content Server, and the results are stored in a cookie. The check is only run again when the cookie expires or is deleted.

The Re-check Client Environment button lets you delete the stored cookie and perform a re- check of your client environment. This is useful if you have installed a plugin and want to start watching conferences in this format.
