INT 256 - Tree Pests and Disease

Lecture Recordings

Click on the link below to begin downloading a video file. Save the file to a hard drive on your own computer or to a zip disc on a computer in a public cluster.  This should only take a minute or two on campus.  Off campus, the download time could easily exceed 1 hour.  

Instructions for viewing saved files:  To view the videos, you will need a PC with a Pentium grade processor of 120 mhz or faster, 65k colors or more for the monitor, and an audio card. 

To play the videos, you will simply need to open the directory in which you saved the file and double click it's title. The video should automatically start after a few moments (up to a minute or two) using "CamPlay" media player that comes with the recording. To scroll through the recording, click the pause button on the display, drag the scroll bar to the approximate location you need, then click the play button.

Note:  If you are trying to view the recordings in a computer cluster, the computers may be configures such that needed software can't be loaded to view the recordings.  If this is the case, you will need to work with the cluster's supervisor  to install software as explained on the "Alternate Recordings" page.

If you are having problems viewing these recordings, try an alternative procedure found on the Alternate Recordings web page.
