Watching Hindu Society of Central Florida videos that are in the Adobe Flash video player/codec via the main Premium Player on the website will work best if you have the Adobe Flash 9 player or higher installed on a computer running Windows XP or Vista. Additionally, we recommend that your computer have a minimum hardware configuration of: Pentium 4, 2GHz processor, 512MB of RAM, 16MB Video Graphics Card, and 10GB of available hard drive space.

To verify what the Adobe Flash Codec you have, click 'Play' on a video in the play list. When the video starts to play in the video window, right click the mouse button and you will see what version of the Adobe Flash Codec you have. If the version is not version 9 or higher, click on 'About Flash Video Player 9". Once the Macromedia Adobe web page comes up, select the option that upgrades your Adobe Flash player.

To verify what the Windows Media Player version you have, open Windows Media Player from your 'Start' menu. Select 'Help>About Windows Media Player' from the menu bar. A window will pop up showing which version of Windows Media Player you have. You should have Version 9 or higher. If you wish to upgrade your Windows Media Player, go to 'Help', select 'Check for Updates', and follow the prompts.

If your friend did not get a 'Share' video e-mail from our system, there are a number of things you will need to check/verify. First, please verify that the e-mail address that you entered for your friend was correctly entered. Second, please make sure that the e-mail did not go into your friends 'Junk Mail' folder.

When you cut/paste the 'video link' for a video, all that you are getting is the link that when clicked upon by someone that visits your website, will take the person that clicked on the link to our media player, and automatically start to play the video that you copy the 'video link' for. Our 'video link' does not provide you with a player so that users can watch our videos on your website. However, if you get a Managed Personal Player, instead of the Personal Player that we manage for you, you can associate your favorite videos to your Managed Personal Player, which is then placed into your website or social network site (e.g. Facebook, MySpace, etc..), that does play the videos. To your own Personal Player (that we manage) or your won Managed Personal Player (that you manage), click on the 'Get Personal Player' or 'Get Managed Personal Player' links that are located throughout our website.

In order to add our videos along with a player to your personal website and/or social network website (e.g. MySpace, Facebook, Ning, etc..), we offer you two (2) options. If you select the 'Personal Player' as your personal player for your personal website, no registration is required and videos that we select from our inventory will be made displayed there. If you select the 'Managed Personal Player' as your personal player, registration is required, but, you will be able to select from our inventory of videos which videos you want your friends and family to see via our player.

Thus far, we have been able to confirm that the Personal Player will function correctly on MySpace, Facebook (when using the My Web Embed Application) and Ning. If you are experiencing trouble with getting our Personal Player to work on your website and/or social network site, please send us a detailed e-mail to hscf@hindutempleorlando.org and we will review the information provided with the goal being to resolve the issue and get our Personal Player to work on your personal web space.

If you opted to place the Personal Player (which me manage) on your personal web space and don't have a copy of the original embed code, please send an e-mail to hscf@hindutempleorlando.org, along with the URL for your personal web space and the e-mail that you used when you registered for your Personal Player and we will send the Personal Player embed code to you. If you opted to place the Managed Personal Player (which you manage) on your personal web space and don't have a copy of the original embed code, simply log into your account and click on the 'Get Managed Personal Player Code' icon/link. Once you click on this icon/link, the code will be displayed. In some cases, an e-mail may have been sent to you with the Personal Player embed code as well.

If you opted from the start to get a Managed Personal Player, then you can easily switch the videos that are shown on your Managed Personal Player. All you need to do is log into your account, click on the 'My Playlist' tab, and if you have videos on the playlist that you have linked to your Managed Personal Player, then you will see towards the top of the playlist area the option for you to switch what the source of the videos that are shown on your Managed Personal Player should be.

The most important thing that you need is a browser that supports the playback of videos that have been converted into the Windows Media Video and Flash formats. Thus far, we have used a browser running on Windows XP, Vista, 2000, and MAC OSX, and the service has performed as expected.

We have tested the viewing of videos using the Internet Explorer 6.0+, Firefox, and Opera browsers. If you have a browser that is not providing a good quality experience, please send an e-mail explaining your situation to hscf@hindutempleorlando.org.

In order for you to have the experience we developed the service to provide, you will need to have a high speed/broadband Internet connection having a download speed of at least 768 kbps.
