A1. During Live Streaming times, there are a number of people standing by to assist registrants with problems. First, check the Chat Box (above, on this page or on a Viewer Page) to see if an answer has already been provided. If not, put your question in the Chat.
A2. If the Chat is not available, follow these steps:
(1) You can email the IANDS A/V Support people at avsupport@iands.org. Please provide as much detail you can about what you were trying to do, how did the system respond, and what were any messages or errors that you received. A screen shot would be most helpful.
(2) You can contact the IANDS Office via the Contact page: preferably fill out the email form or you may call during business hours. Our office person will probably know how to assist you, but may need to contact the A/V Support people for you.
A. The Chat allows people on the IANDS Videos web site to exchange messages and comments. There are several IANDS A/V Support people monitoring the Chat and there may be a number of viewers also watching the conversations. You can scroll down to find latest comments and questions or review earlier conversations.
To post a question or comment, simply type in the “Enter message here” line and then press the Enter key or the Send button.
Important status messages are posted by the A/V Support people, for example if there is a delay or the video streaming is on Standby. The Chat is the best place to get the latest status. The Chat is shared on this page (Frequently Asked Questions) and the live-stream Viewer Pages.
Comments on the Chat older than 60 minutes are removed automatically. The Chat will open before the first presentation of the day and will be closed after the last presentation of each day.
[Note to admins: Settings -> Wise Chat Settings–> options:
– set chat closed message in Localizations – Error Message #5
– set chat opening hours and days in General – set Opening Days to the current day and the next day (to handle people in Australia/Europe)]
A. On each Viewer Page, the Countdown clock counts the days, hours and minutes to the next Conference Live Streaming event. The time that’s shown is relative to your specific time zone. So regardless of which time zone you are in, the Countdown clock will show the number of hours and minutes to go before the presentation is scheduled to start.
The A/V Support people will always set the clock to the scheduled time for the next presentation for that Viewer Page.
[Note to admins:

2. Set the timezone of the countdown. This is required if you are creating a global countdown! The setting is relative to UTC (-5 is the setting for ET).
3. Note: the time is 24-hour: 19:30 is 7:30 PM.]
