For Viewing

CourseCast recordings can be viewed on a number of computers and browsers including Windows 8. 7, Vista, XP, Mac OS X (Intel only), and the latest IE, Firefox, Safari and Chrome browsers. Recordings are also viewable on any mobile device.

You may be required to install Microsoft’s Silverlight plugin on your computer the first time you view a CourseCast recording. Browsers will automatically detect whether you need to install the Silverlight plugin. Follow the on-screen prompts to install or upgrade. Or you may download from Microsoft.

CourseCast recordings, if made available via Blackboard, are also available automatically as podcasts for those who prefer viewing them on mobile devices or subscribing via iTunes.
