How to Use the Player

When you click on a link that contains an audio file, the Player will automatically open and begin playing the audio file.

Here are five features of the Player that you will likely use:

1.  Play, pause, stop, rewind, and fast forward.
 

The Player allows you to control audio playback just like a tape player. At the top left corner of the Player window, there are a series of buttons that allow you to Play, Pause, and Stop the recording.

You can also quickly move to a new time in the recording by moving the Slider left or right. In order to move the Slider, click and hold your mouse button down on the Slider and then move your mouse left or right and release the mouse button.

Note: If you watch the current time indicator in the bottom right corner of the Player window while you move the slider, you can jump to the exact minute and second you desire.

2.  Adjust the volume.
 

The Player allows you to adjust the volume of the playback using the Volume Control located in the bottom right corner of the Player window. Click and hold your mouse button down on the Volume Control and slide your mouse left or right to change the volume. Sliding the Volume Control to left will decrease the volume and sliding it to the right will increase the volume.

3.  View the current time and total time.
 

The Player always displays the current time and total time for the recording in the bottom right corner of the Player window. You can use this display to keep track of where you are in the recording and how much longer the recording will last.

4.  Enlarge the viewing size (video only).
 

The Player allows you to enlarge the size of the video screen using the Zoom Level Control located in the bottom left corner of the Player window. Click on the Zoom Level Control and a picklist will appear with the following options: Original Size, Double Size, and Full Screen.

5.  Minimize the Player.
 

Minimizing the Player allows you to "hide" the Player window while still listening to the recording. This may be helpful, for example, if you would like to view the text of a sermon and listen to the audio at the same time.

In order to minimize the Player window, click on the Minimize button located at the top right corner of the Player window.

Note: Once you have minimized the Player window, you can open it again at any time by clicking on the RealPlayer button located at the very bottom of your computer screen (in the same row as your Start button).

Minimize


6.  Exit the Player.
 

In order to exit the Player, click the Close button located in the top right corner of the Player window. This will close the Player window and return you to the Northern Hills Fellowship website.
