DEN students will be able to view a live link during the scheduled class time. A high definition archive video will then be posted within 24 business hours of lecture completion. Although we make every attempt to provide videos within 30 minutes of class completion, exceptions are made in cases of rare technical difficulties that may arise.

All courses remain accessible throughout the semester and are removed from the servers after the final exams are completed.

Videos require the latest Adobe Flash plugin for your browser of choice. This may also be the HTML5 if Flash is no longer supported by a specific browser.

The live and archived lectures are viewed inside your browser's flash player. Supported browsers include Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox, Internet Explorer and Safari. The browsers best work in the recommended operating systems Windows 7 & up and OS X.

There are a few reasons for getting this error message.

1. The live lecture just recently ended. Once our quality control team uploads the video to the current weekly module, the file converts to flash format before the "Play" button will work. Please be patient for a few minutes after the video has been posted.
2. Your browser's Flash plugin hasn't been updated.
3. Your company's firewall may not accept our video protocol (UDP), thereby blocking the video. Please check with your network administrator regarding the firewall's configurations and to see if there is a proxy server set up for you. If you have any problems streaming video behind your company's firewall, contact your IT department for assistance.

You can start and navigate the video by utilizing the video's playback controls, enabling full screen mode and jumping to sections in the video by moving the scroll bar located below the video window.

Yes. Enable full screen mode by double-clicking anywhere inside the video window. Full screen mode can also be activated by hovering the mouse over the video and clicking the arrows icon on the floating control bar's right hand side, next to the volume icon.

Lectures run from 50 minutes to 180 minutes in length. Our high bandwidth videos play back at 30 frames per second. To navigate through a video, hover anywhere inside the video window and click any point along the timeline to skip forward or backward.

No. You must have a network connection to view our videos.
