Problems viewing video content? Click here. Current Video Playback problems:- We are aware of a problem where the video playback control bar is not automatically hiding itself and obscuring part of the video. We’re rolling out a new video player across the site that resolves this issue and this video will be upgraded soon. |
Additional notes
If your speakers/headphones are correctly configured you should be able to hear a sound when you click “Test”. In the video, you cannot hear the sound because it is played in the narrators headphones!
