Notes:

  • For Internet Explorer, the audio and video playback works with Windows Media Player ActiveX component
  • For other browsers, the audio and video playback works with HTML5 audio and video capabilities using automatically transcoded mp3 and mp4 media files.

Test whether the required components are properly installed or not, by clicking on the waveform icon left to the Verba Player title in the top-left corner of the player frame. This test feature is only available when a recorded media file is selected to play from a conversation list. If one of the required components are not properly installed the test will fail.
