To watch the videos , you will need to download the free Quicktime 7 player. The video files are encoded in the Mp4 format. The audio files are recorded in Mp3 format. These files can be watched on either a PC or Mac computer or a on a portable device. If you intend on using a device other than an iPod, you most likely will need a media player installed that can play these formats. |

The videos are encoded in a universal format ( Mp4) that is understood by many devices and media playback applications. It is presumable that if you are trying to watch the videos on some sort of a device other than an iPod that you will need to download a media player for device that can play Mp4. |

No. In addition to the video version of the lecture we have also created "audio only" versions of the lectures. These lecture are in the mp3 format and can be played on any device that will play a mp3 file. |

Yes you can on a computer, but not on most portable devices. The free Quicktime 7 player comes standard with a speed up / slow down function. 1) From iTunes, right click or ( cmd + left click on a Mac ) on the video. 2) From the pop-up menu, choose "Show File" on a PC or "Show in Finder" on a Mac. This will show you the actual media file on your computer. 3) Open the file with Quicktime. 4) From the Quicktime menu options accross the top select "Window." 5) Select "Show A/V Controls." 6) Below is where you can change the speed:
For applications other than Quicktime, you will have to explore that media player to see if they have a similar function. |

Yes and no. You cannot change the speed
of a video on the iPod, but you may be able to on other devices. That
will depend on your device's media player. |
