Overview

Mediasite Viewer allows you to view live, on-demand, or stand-alone presentations—including synchronized support materials such as slide images—using your Web browser. A live presentation is one that is broadcast while it is being recorded. You can join a live presentation before it begins or after it has already started. An on-demand presentation is one that is played-back any time after it has been recorded. A stand-alone presentation is a recorded presentation that is self-contained and can be played back from your local hard drive or a CD.

Watching a presentation using Mediasite Viewer is virtually the same as being in the room with the presenter. The presentation begins playing automatically when you open Mediasite Viewer. The Mediasite Viewer window includes separate controls for the video and slide show portions of a presentation.

This help file discusses Mediasite Viewer requirements and provides instructions for setting Viewer options and using the Viewer controls to navigate and view a presentation's video and slides, answer polls, ask questions, and display presentation details, closed-captions, and links.
