Guest guest Posted November 6, 2006 Report Posted November 6, 2006 Dear Kalia, I'm sorry you are unable to see the broadcasts. I had the same problem, and quite by accident I found out that if I used Quicktime 6. 5 instead of 7.1 (the latest version), I could see and hear everything (in order to see the video taped Cosmic Puja classes I still have to use Quicktime 7.1 because 6.5 won't work there). Perhaps you could try changing Quicktime versions as well, you never know. I pray you and Kalachandra and all those having some problems with reception will be able to receive Swamiji in your homes soon, with love, henny - In , "kaliananda_saraswati" <kaliananda_saraswati wrote: > > Dear Nanda, > > I enjoyed very much reading your post and sharing in the joy which > you feel at welcoming Swamiji to your apt not only once but five > times in one week ...

Guest guest Posted November 12, 2006 Report Posted November 12, 2006 Dear Henny, Thanks again for your suggestion I have tried and tried but still no success with the video or webcam. At one time a picture of Swamiji started to open from the daily posted files but it suddenly froze and returning to the download subsequently, an error message appeared. I also tried to download at work where the connection speed is much higher but the result was the same. Thankfully, i got a few of the audio files. love always, Kalia , "henny_v_i" <henny_v_i wrote: > > Dear Kalia, > > I'm sorry you are unable to see the broadcasts.

Guest guest Posted November 14, 2006 Report Posted November 14, 2006 thank you for letting me know the outcome. I'm sorry it did not work and hope a solution can be found in another way. Perhaps the videotaped files could be sent to you on cd or something (I'm afraid this suggestion makes it painfully obvious I know very little about these things). But I'm glad you can at least listen to a few files, with love, Henny , "kaliananda_saraswati" <kaliananda_saraswati wrote: > > Dear Henny, > > Thanks again for your suggestion I have tried and tried but still no > success with the video or webcam.
