Eloquent “Infomedia” transforms a speaker giving a live presentation into a multimedia application. The Infomedia "Talks" included on this CD contains the video of the speaker, presentation slides, and a complete transcript. Infomedia is distributed on CD-ROM’s or over a corporate intranet; and viewed using the Eloquent Infomedia Player.
System Requirements
• Power Macintosh
• MacOS 7.5.2 or newer
• 8 Megabytes of RAM with Virtual Memory on
16 Megabytes of RAM with Virtual Memory off
• Minumum of 256 colors (thousands or millions recommended)
• CD-ROM Drive (to access Eloquent Infomedia CDs)
• MacTCP or Open Transport with TCP/IP (to access Eloquent Infomedia Servers)
Installing the Player
In most cases, the Eloquent Infomedia Player can run directly off an Infomedia CD. Just double click the Eloquent Player icon to launch the Player. There are two exceptions:
• Playing an Infomedia CD that doesn't contain the Macintosh Eloquent Player.
• Playing an Infomedia CD Set (an event requiring more than one CD)
In these cases, the Player must be installed on a local hard disk. Also the Player will launch more quickly off of a hard disk than a CD.
(note: the Macintosh Eloquent Player is capable of playing ANY Eloquent Infomedia CD ,even if the CD does not contain the Macintosh Player)
To install the Player on a hard disk, simply drag the Eloquent Player icon at the root level of the Infomedia CD to a folder on your hard disk.
Many Infomedia events include slides and reference materials in Adobe's Acrobat™ (PDF) format. If you dont already have the Adobe Acrobat™ Reader installed on your computer, you can install the Acrobat™ Reader by running "Install Acrobat Reader 3.0" from the CD-ROM.
Known Problems/Limitations:
The system must have the following extensions installed: MathLib, ObjectSupportLib, and ThreadsLib. These system extensions are available on the Infomedia CD, and may be installed by dragging them into the System's Extension Folder from the CD.
The memory control panel must have "Modern Memory Manager" turned on.
Panes within the talk view will not overlap correctly.
Sometimes when playing long talks, the Player will run out of memory. To solve this problem, increase the memory size by selecting the application file in the Finder, choosing Get Info from the File Menu, and then filling in a larger memory size.
