WINR uses Windows' Media Encoder to stream our
signal on the internet. While some folks may not like this, this is
out of our control. (i.e. the university provides the stream and
bandwidth free of charge - we're not going to complain.) If you have
a Mac, there are some known compatibility issues with the system.
However, a workaround has been
discovered.To listen in
Mac OS X:
1. First upgrade to the latest version of Quicktime. (Most Macs have
Quicktime - you may need to update the software. If you don’t have
Quicktime, download it
here.
2. Next,
download the Flip4Mac WMV player (a plugin for Quicktime) from
Microsoft. This is available
here.
3.
Lastly, open this link in Firefox (it won’t ask in Safari) and it
should ask you which application to open it with. Choose
Flip4Mac from your Applications folder. That will bring up
Quicktime.
