TO VIEW THESE SHOWS

Your browser will probably come up and tell you it needs to run/install an active x control. Go ahead and just say yes to whatever it asks.  It is completely safe for your computer. If you're running IE8 you might need to download and install the plug in manually. I seem to be having problems with this. The file is located here. http://www.photodex.com/downloads/products/plugins/presenter
contact me with questions.

also be aware that these are hugh files, and you might have to go get a cup of coffee while they load.

You can also save your show to your hard drive.

 

 

 

SAVING A SHOW

Downloading the show:
When you click on a  show, Presenter begins to download the show using a temporary name to the following directory

C:\Documents and Settings\your name\Local Settings\Temp


the file will be called some goofy name with a .psg extension. (also if you're using Windows7 the temp directory will be different.

Saving the file after downloading:
Now that the file is done downloading, DO NOT EXIT PRESENTER
Right click the file that was downloaded to the temp directory specified and select "Copy" (you must use Copy, you can't move the file since Presenter still has it's grubby little fingers on it). Copy the file, go to the directory
where you want to save the file and select "Paste". You now have a copy of the file, but it still has the "psg???.tmp" name. At this point, you can rename the file to whatever name makes sense to you (I usually use
an abbreviated form of the title and the users name). Set the file type to .px (when you rename it, you can do all that in one step - just type the desired_name.px when you rename it). You can now exit Presenter from the web page.

Presto !! You now have your own copy of  your show


NOTES:
--- You do NOT need to actually "watch" the show, you only need to let Presenter download a copy of the show to your Temp Directory. Also note that you must use the copy/paste routine to some other directory,
you can't just rename the temp show in the temp directory, again because Presenter "owns" that file and still has control of it.
