About WFSU Television Webcasts
WFSU Online

WFSU offers five online television channels to the public. Of these streams, three stream 24-hours per day. These are: The Florida Channel Web 1, The Florida Channel Web 2, and The Florida Channel Web 3. WFSU Web 1 and WFSU Web 2 are available on an as-needed basis. An example would be during a live Florida Supreme Court Oral Argument or during a paid client session. If you do not obtain a picture on WFSU Web 1 or WFSU Web 2, chances are that no video is scheduled for that time.

LIVE STREAM TECHNICAL ISSUES

Please confirm that you have the latest version of Adobe Flash Player installed on your browser. If you are unsure of your browswer's status, you can visit Adobe's Website and use their Flash Player Test.

If you have successfully installed the latest version of Adobe Flash Player for your browser, please check with your Network Administrator to be sure that streaming video traffic is not blocked via a firewall on your network. Our streams travel over both port 80.

Live streams are not available in full screen mode.

 

ARCHIVED MEDIA TECHNICAL ISSUES
Archived web media is available in several different formats depending on origin date. Keep in mind that depending on the file, you will need to install different types of software. Some of our archived media, particularly Florida Supreme Court cases, are available in Windows Media, Real Player, or Flash, (one or all of the previous formats). You must have the appropriate player installed to play the media. Windows Media will require a player such as Windows Media Player that plays .wmv files. Real format media will require Real Player (a free download on the Real Networks site), and Flash media will require the Flash plugin being installed on your browser. Please have a technical person at your home or office help you with these installations as WFSU will not be able to provide support for individual systems.

If you believe that you have the appropriate software installed on your computer, and that your network is not blocked by a firewall, please call 850/487-3170 or email it@wfsu.org to notify us of a possible broken link or other technical issues related to archived media.
