What is required to view videos on Christian Web TV?
First and formost, all video content is free for viewing, there are no sign ups or cost requirements for you to view content here at Christian Web TV. The only requirement is that you have the latest Flash Player codecs from Adobe. Most of you will already have this installed, if it is not installed please click here to get the latest Flash Player.

Can I download Christian Web TV  videos to my computer?
Yes, but it is in low quality and you must have Quicktime installed. To download the video right click on the iphone image and go to save target as, then you can save it to anywhere on your desktop.

Why are the videos buffering, choppy, or freezing?
The quality of the video clip you are watching mainly depends on the speed of your internet connection and how fast your computer is. Christian Web TV uses a progressive download for all to watch. Basicly, this means  the video is downloading to your computer. If your video is continuously bufferring, press the pause button for a minute or two and this will allow more video to download on your computer to be played. You will notice on the player controls there is a percentage number that tells you how much of the video has been loaded. By our use of  progressive download method, even those with a 56k modem dial up may view a program. Please realize the slower your connection the longer it may take to watch the video, so please remember to pause the video if it continues to buffer and give it some time to download. 

For the best viewing experience, we recommend a high speed Internet connection such as DSL or Cable Modem.

It is important to note that even if you have a high-speed (DSL/ Cable Modem/ T1), internet traffic congestion affects your connection speed and/or video performance. You will get slower or faster speeds at different times depending on peak or off-peak use hours. You may also get slower speeds during the morning and afternoon, but faster speeds late at night when fewer people are online. Also, streaming quality decreases when multiple people share the same internet connection (e.g. at work or on a home network).

I am at work and our computers are not allowed to have the latest FlashPlayer. Is there any way we still may see the video?
Yes, you may be able to see the video by clicking on the "iphone users click here" image. Most work computers have the Quicktime plugin installed.

I would like to watch the video full screen, is that possible?
Yes, on the player controls there is an icon next to the volume when you click it, the video will go to full screen. To go back to normal view just click the same icon.

I have an iphone. Can I stream video on it?
Yes, when you go to the video you wish to watch click on the image that says "iphone users click here." Please note this will open a Safari page that will be white with the Quicktime signal and it may take a moment for the video to load depending on your connection speed to the interent.

Are the videos available as a podcast?
Yes, but they are in low quality and not in a standard ipod quality do to the fact they are made for streaming over the internet. You are however, able to download them and save them to any iphone or ipod video system to be played. To do this, just right click on the iphone image and go to save target as. Then you can save it to anywhere on your desktop and bring it into your itunes library to be attached to your ipod or iphone.
