Q. I have downloaded the webcast application and QuickTime4 but I can' find any link for connecting to the server. Where is it?
|
| … |

A. Users with webcast application and QuickTime4 will only need to have the webcast application up and running before the opera starts(For Windows = LIFE.exe, For Mac = LIFE). Your webcast application will automatically connect to the proper server and start recieving streams. So, you don't need to know ant address to connect.
As for users with WMT(WindowsMediaTechnology) client, videos and audios of the opera will be available. For users with LIFE webcast application, QuickTime 4 will be used to recieve audio stream.
For users with WMT, please download Windows Media Player from Microsoft's web site and connect to the address that will be announced on the top page. This address will not be announced until an hour before the opera.
