New: RETN Video Conferencing Streaming Server
 
RETN has a new Video Conferencing Recorder by VBrick.  The system is used primarily for the recording of Interactive Video Conferences for live and archived playback of collaboration, professional development, content, meetings, and special events delivered over the RETN network.  Use of this system is intended for members of RETN.  However, a registration is not required for the viewing of general videos that are not categorized as private. 
 
Video recordings that are designated as private and are targeted to a specific audience will require an RETN member to register with a username, password, and contact information.  Access to private video recordings will be granted only if the request meets the targeted audience requirement.  The general rule is if you were invited to the original meeting, then you would be considered the targeted audience.
 
You may go to the following link and submit your registration information.  Once your registration is approved, a confirmation email will be sent to you.  If you have questions, please contact Pat Crawford at pcrawford@esc11.net.
