What should I do if my video will not play?
There are many things that can affect the quality of your video so we
have put together these instructions to help you review all the things that
need to be tested in order to trouble-shoot video quality.
The first thing we want to assure you is that we have done everything
possible to make sure that our videos will play well. Our videos are hosted in
the cloud by Akamai. Akamai has servers around the world to make sure that
your videos are sent from the server that is closest to you. By hosting our
videos with Akamai we make sure that you receive the highest video quality. If
you are experiencing video buffering or freezing at home or at the office there
are a number of things you can do to help us troubleshoot.
- Proper Video Quality: Although the player will attempt
to match the video quality with your bandwidth, you may find that setting
your video quality manually will give you better performance.
- Popup Blockers: Please check to make sure that
your pop-up blocker is turned off when you go to our website. This
will prevent the video window from opening.
-
Your Connection Speed: Internet speed needs to
be 2.0 Mbps upload and download to successfully watch the
videos. You will want to check and see if your connection
speed is 2.0 Mbps or higher. You can do this by clicking on
this link and running a speed test.
-
Jitter and Packet Loss: Your Jitter rate
lets us know if your connection speed is consistent while
your Packet Loss rate lets us know if your internet
connection could be losing pieces of the video.
- Go to https://www.dotcom-tools.com/ping-test.aspx to
determine if there is any Jitter or Packet Loss on your
connection.
-
This is measured by a letter scale with A being the best.
- If your Packet Loss is below a B, your
connection is losing pieces of the video and
causing the video to skip.
- If your Jitter is below a B, your
connection speed is very inconsistent and may
be changing while you are watching the video
which will result in buffering issues.
- If either of these is the case you will
need to contact your internet provider.
-
Shared Internet Connection: If you are on
a shared internet connection, test playing videos during
non-peak hours when usage by others on your network is low.
-
Reset Your Browser: If you've
tried all the previous steps, your browser may be retaining
data that needs to be deleted, and this requires a reset. If
you are using Chrome, use the instructions in
this link
to reset your browser. If you are using Internet Explorer (IE)
you may need to reset it. You can do this by clicking on the
cog icon on the top right of your page. Then click on tools,
internet options, advanced and reset. If you are using Firefox,
use the instructions in
this link
to reset your browser.
-
Other things to check:
-
At home or at work, test using different browsers
and computers to see if you get the same result.
- Make sure you have the latest version of
the browser you are using.
- If you are using Internet Explorer (IE) you may
need to reset it. You can do this by clicking on the
cog icon on the top right of your page. Then click on
tools, internet options, advanced and reset.
- Try from a different location using a different
network.
- If you are on a wireless connection try a wired
solution.
-
If you are on a home network:
- Test playing the videos when you are the
only user on the network.
- Try by-passing your router to eliminate it
as the point of failure. A direct plug from
your ISP to your computer will take care of
this and will make sure that neither your
router nor other users are affecting your
connection.
-
If you are running Firefox, you can check your plugins here:
https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/plugincheck/
-
Make sure you do not have any other programs open. File
sharing and peer to peer sharing programs, even when
limited to low bandwidth, can make it almost impossible to
stream properly.
-
Tracking Progress on Mobile Devices:
The GogoTraining site is designed to use the native player found in your
browser. If you are taking your course on a mobile device and want to make
sure your progress is tracked, then you will need to play the videos from the
native player that is in your browser. Do not download any third party apps to
play the videos as they do not allow your progress to be recorded. If you have
installed a third party app and want to receive a Letter of Course Attendance,
then you will need to uninstall the 3rd party app or see if the
app has the ability for you to disable it for certain sites.
-
Submitting Debugging Information
If you have tried everything else and still are having trouble viewing
the videos, you can visit this page
where you can help us debug your particular setup by following the
instructions on the page and submit the debugging information to us.
