The following links are a simple way for viewers to test their computer to see if they can view streaming files from our server. Firewalls, poor network conditions,and improperly configured browsers are some of they problems that may be encountered.
The links below can be used to test the different formats (Real, Quicktime, Windows). If a user has difficulty, you can check the Cornell Network Status page to make sure there are no problems with streaming1.video.cornell.edu (the streaming server). If the server is up, then the user's problem is most likely due to a firewall, poor network conditions, or a missing plugin in their browser.
You can download the links to streams that are appropriate to your use but right-clicking (Windows) or control-clicking (Macintosh) to save the reference files. These can be posted on your site rather than sending users to this page.

Quicktime
Windows Media
