RealAudio Files
|
To hear RealAudio files, your system must be equipped with a
RealPlayer. You can download one at no charge below:
Once your RealPlayer is downloaded, you should install it:
locate and launch the file you downloaded by exploring your
hard drive or choosing the Run option in the Start menu.
(The file is where your Web browser saved it).
This will begin the RealPlayer 7 Minimal Download setup process.
If you don't know where you saved the file on a Windows system,
first check to see if it is on your desktop. If it is, simply
double-click the icon to launch the RealPlayer installation
program. Normally when you install the RealPlayer,
it automatically sets up your Web browser for you. So, when you
click on a RealAudio link, your RealPlayer is launched in a
moment.
Before you contact LearningRussian.com with troubleshooting
requests or comments about sound file playability, please read
RealAudio's Help and Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ).

Flash Movies
|
The Online Russian Library offers animated texts that work on the
same principle as karaoke. The lines pronouncing by the speaker
are colored in red, so you can easily listen and follow the
text at the same time. The voice recording may be stopped or
paused on any line. You can also playback the line of your
interest by clicking on it.
To utilize the animated texts you need to install the
Macromedia Flash Player 6 on your computer. It's free and easy
to install. If you do not have the Flash Player, you may get
it now from the Macromedia Flash Player Download Center.
Technical assistance with Flash is available at Macromedia's
Flash Player Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ).
