When cardiacmorphology.com first launched audio and video on its website, 'streaming' technology was fairly new and, at the time, RealPlayer was predominantly used.

Since that time, the Flash format has become more popular and the number of applications using Flash has increased. As a result, you and other users have asked that we consider supporting other software and we decided Flash would be the best format to use.

If you believe you should have access to an area that at present you don't, feel free to email us explaining your circumstances.

No. Flash Player can be downloaded free from the Macromedia site by clicking on the icon below

There are many reasons why this might occur.

Your bandwidth may be being used by another application (or another computer, if your connection is via a home/office network). Your viewing experience will be affected if our servers are unable to deliver data to your computer quickly enough because of network congestion on your connection.

Downloading large files or using peer-to-peer applications while watching video, for example, may prevent you from being able to receive enough data to maintain a constant video stream.

If you do not believe your connection is being used by other applications or other people, we would recommend you follow this link to Flash support pages for more advice.

Adobe.com provide online testing for the Flash Player at their web players testing site here.

Unfortunately, it is not possible to download or save any videos to your computer as this would make it easier for people to use our work without our permission. If you'd like to use anything on our website, please email us.
