I'm confused. What do you mean by
"high" and "low" bandwidth? |
|
Bandwidth
refers to how quickly data can be delivered to your computer.
If you are accessing the internet via a cable, DSL, or satellite
connection you are a high bandwidth surfer and can access the high
bandwidth Worship Service stream. If you connect to the
internet via a modem you are considered a low bandwidth user (not
that there's anything wrong with that). You can still access
the high bandwidth stream, but it will take longer buffer/download.
Buffer? |

The SSUMC Worship
Service is a large file (some 70 megabytes). To speed
delivery, Windows Media Audio will download a portion of the service
to your computer before it allows you to start playing the file.
When Windows Media tells you that the service is 100% buffered it
means that enough of the file has been downloaded to your computer
that you can start listening to the service. While you are
listening to the service, Windows Media will keep downloading the
audio file to your computer. This is called streaming: the
program plays the file at the same time it is being downloaded.
I'm not sure what type of
internet connection I have. |

Do you have a son or
daughter you could ask? Other people who might be able to help
include grandchildren and the personnel at your internet service
provider. Either way, nothing bad will happen if you choose
the "wrong" bandwidth. Try to use our high bandwidth stream
first. If you feel like it's taking forever for the file to
buffer just go back and click the low bandwidth stream instead.
Can I save the Worship Service to
my computer? |

No. Do you
really want to? If so, have you thought about increasing your
weekly tithe?
Nothing is working! What's
wrong? |

Microsoft
tends to be slightly territorial when it comes to their software and
they don't always make the best effort to support non-Microsoft
platforms. It's possible that you are using a Macintosh
computer, a Mozilla or Opera browser, or some other competing
platform.
This seems odd to me, why don't
you make a better effort to support non-Microsoft platforms? |
