Detailed instructions for downloading and installing
RealPlayer, Windows Media Player, or QuickTime software.


Currently, WebcastingTV uses the Microsoft's Windows Media Player, RealNetworks' RealPlayer, and Apple's QuickTime player in all of its V-Buttons and user websites.  

(Please note that the V-Button player detection system will search your system for one of these players automatically.  You only need to be on this page if it found no installed player. To launch a player detection search click on any V-Button, or click this icon .  If a video starts to play, then your system is already configured.  If you are presented with a choice between "Automatic" and "Manual," select "Automatic" to perform the test.)

Below are detailed instructions for helping you through the downloading and installation of any of the popular streaming media players.  You only need to have one of them.  Please select the player you would like to install by pressing the icon. (WTV's current user preferences are WMP-52%, Real-34%, and QT-13%.)
