Plantsmen's Tour Videos
The following Plantsmen's Tours are available for online viewing. Each requires Adobe's Flash Player (version 9.0.124.0 or greater). Web browser scripting should also be enabled.
Each video is password protected for Friends of the Arboretum members. The user name is always "jcra" and the password will change from time to time. The password is printed on the newsletter's mailing address label and is included in the monthly JCRA e-Update e-mails.
Flash Player Controls
From left to right, the controls in the Flash Player are as follows:
- Play (changes to Pause when video is playing)
- Stop
- Step backwards
- Step forwards
- Video timeline position (note darker gray bar indicates video download progress – it should always be greater than the video timeline position)
- Mute
- Volume
- Full screen
If the video playback is jerky, make sure the download progress is ahead of the playback position. If the download cannot keep up, allow the video to download more by pausing the video for a short while. Also, close unneeded applications since video playback can be taxing on a computer's CPU and memory.
