UTEP Library Research Guides: Streaming Video: Swank Digital Campus

How It Works

How Swank Digital Works:

Swank Digital movies are streamed to your students through a dedicated movie server using Microsoft Silverlight software.

Silverlight is available through a free download and is compatible with both Macs and PCs.

Please visit the following page to get Microsoft Silverlight: www.microsoft.com/getsilverlight/

At this time, Swank Digital titles will not play on mobile devices such as the iPhone, iPad or other comparable technology.
