What is Silverlight?
Silverlight is a small install by Microsoft to allow video streaming. It is similar
to 'Flash,' which is what you have installed if you ever watch videos on YouTube.
If you have ever watched the Olympics live on the Internet or streamed NetFlix movies
to your computer, then you already have Silverlight. Otherwise, you can download
it by clicking here.
How do I make a video?
Currently, Viternus only allows you to upload a video you have already made. The
best way to do this is through your webcam or by using Windows Movie Maker (on Windows)
or iMovie (on Macintosh). We are constantly taking feedback and working to improve
our website to enable easy video creation and upload.
