WHAT SOFTWARE DO I NEED TO WATCH THE ENIGMA CHANNEL? To watch The Enigma Channel you need to use Apple's QUICKTIME software. Quicktime is available for FREE and can be downloaded directly from the Internet. Alternatively, you may purchase it for a small fee on CD.Rom from www.apple.com QUICKTIME is compatible with both Apple and Macintosh computers. It allows you to watch TV programmes without waiting for the video and audio to download. The Quicktime 'PLAYER' is a handy application whch is part of the latest version of the Quicktime software. The Quicktime player gives you access to a wide range of on-line TV and Radio channels. The Quicktime Player also allows you to playback Quicktime files from CD.Roms. All Apple computers bought today are pre-loaded with the latest version of QUICKTIME. For example, the Apple iMAC computer is capable of receiving broadcasts from The Enigma Channel straight out of the box. Some modern PCs are also available with Quicktime - though many will have Microsofts MediaPlayer instead. Ask your PC dealer about Quicktime compatibility - some PCs only have version 3 of Quicktime - this is not suitable for viewing The Enigma Channel. You need at least version 4, or later. If you are considering upgrading your computer, then we recommend the new Apple iMac, or iMac DV (which can edit digital video and audio). These computers are relatively inexpensive and come fitted complete with a 56K modem. Apple G3, G4, iBook and iMac computers use USB peripherals - just like the latest range of PCs. However, if you do not have Version 4 of QUICKTIME already installed on your computer, you will have to Update your PC or Mac. This process is simple. However, users of Avid Cinema software should not install version 4 of QUICKTIME before consulting with AVID. QUICKTIME is one of several systems used to decode video and audio broadcast on the Internet - there are many other systems available, such as Windows MediaPlayer, Real Video, AVI Player and other systems especially made for PC users. The SEGA DREAMCAST games console may soon be able to recognise Quicktime - keep visiting The Enigma Channel website at www.enigmatv.com for the latest news regarding the Sega Dreamcast console. OPTIMISE YOUR PC FOR QUICKTIME NOW! After you have installed Quicktime, you will HAVE TO CHECK THE PREFERENCES IN YOUR BROWSER AND MAKE SURE THAT WINDOWS MEDIAPLAYER, OR YOUR AVI PLAYER ARE NOT PREFERRED. IF YOU DO NOT CHECK YOUR BROWSER PREFERENCES, THEN IT IS LIKELY THAT THE VIDEO AND AUDIO SIGNALS BROADCAST ON THE ENIGMA CHANNEL WILL NOT PLAY ON YOUR COMPUTER SCREEN, OR THE QUICKTIME BROADCAST WILL NOT BE RECOGNISED. YOU SHOULD ALSO CHECK THE PREFERENCES SETTINGS FOR ANY SOUNDCARDS YOU HAVE INSTALLED ON YOUR PC - YOU MAY FIND THAT EVEN AFTER INSTALLING QUICKTIME, YOU RECEIVE VIDEO BUT NO AUDIO SIGNAL. Many of the transmissions from The Enigma Channel are available in STEREO. You will benefit from connecting external stereo speakers to your computer. FIVE STEPS TO HEAVEN... The picture size and audio quality broadcast by The Enigma Channel will vary according to how fast your modem is. We recommend the following: 1. Use a V90 specification 56K MODEM. (You will still be able to visit The Enigma Channel Cyberstore and Chatroom even if you only have a 28.8K or 33K modem - but video playback will be slow and full of interruptions). 2. If there is a broadband DSL or ADSL (sometimes called something like "Home Highway") option available from your local phone company, then this will ensure that all the TV shows broadcast on the internet will play without interruption. An ISDN connection is also an excellent, efficient way of receiving The Enigma Channel. 3. Avoid viewing The Enigma Channel on a Local Area Network (LAN) - many Cyber Cafes use LANs - these 'share' a single telephone line between many computers and will cause the TV picture to 'stutter'. If possible, always view The Enigma Channel using a direct 'open' telephone line. 4. Use INTERNET EXPLORER Version 4.5 or better. The Enigma Channel can be viewed using NETSCAPE browsers such as Communicator and Navigator, but we have found that Internet Explorer is more 'stable' for Quicktime. Always check the preferences in your Browser software and optimise the settings for Quicktime. You can download the latest version of Microsoft Internet Explorer for FREE directly from The Enigma Channel - go to www.enigmatv.com 5. Always download the FULL VERSION of Quicktime - The Enigma Channel may not be viewable with the 'slimline' versions of Quicktime. You can download Quicktime for FREE directly from The Enigma Channel. Or you may prefer to visit www.apple.com and read about the various benefits of having Quicktime installed on your machine. The typical picture size available from The Enigma Channel presently measures aprox. 4 inches wide by 3 inches high. However, we shall soon enable the Quicktime Player options from within our website and this will allow you to 'drag out' the picture to fill your computer screen. The picture size, audio and video quality will all improve over the coming months. Please contact us if you need any further information. We cannot accept responsibility for any data loss or corruption caused by downloading tird party software - however, we endeavour to help all our viewers to attain optimum picture and audio quality. Please consult the Message Board on The Enigma Channel website for further tips and hints - especially valuable for PC users.
