For the Windows Media link (Channel 1) practically any computers with Windows should work fine. As for the Flash, it can be played on Windows, Mac, or UNIX computers with the Adobe Flash player installed (it is actually a plug-in for the browser, not a stand-alone player like Real or WM). The users can download it from the Adobe Website: http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/otherversions
The browser should have a Pop-up Blocker disabled (in the IE7/8 select Tools - Pop-up Blocker - Turn Off ..). The users can play Flash video in a full screen. These are the instructions for the IE7/8 (similar instructions could be used for other browsers):
If you have IE7/8, you can play Flash streaming video in full screen (all ED5 computers have IE7/8): click on the link, select the video window and press F11 on the keyboard, then at the right lower corner click on the arrow down and select 400%, but in this case your video could stop for buffering more often or even stuck. In this case close it and click on the link again.
FlickR: To present your project to the jurors and other interested people, we would like to encourage you to upload pictures of your project to FlickR. We set up a group called "Development Marketplace 2009" which is reachable under the URLÂ http://www.flickr.com/groups/dm2009/ to make the pictures easily findable. Just upload your pictures to FlickR (http://www.flickr.com/), tag them with "dm2009" and add them to the pool of the group (just select "Add photos or video " on the group page). You can of course also add your videos here or on Youtube.
Â
Youtube: If you have videos of your project which you want to share with the jurors or other interested people you may upload them to Youtube (http://www.youtube.com/) and tag them with "dm2009" to make it possible for us to find the videos and feature them. The Development Marketplace also has an own Youtube channel where live material from the event will be added – http://www.youtube.com/user/DevMarketplace2009.
