Watching films
When you find a title that you'd like to watch, select Play on the details page to open the video player.
Note: An internet connection is required to watch videos; they can't be downloaded for offline viewing.
Moving the slider in the progress bar allows you to jump to a specific point in the video. You can also control playback with these buttons:
-
Start or pause the video.
-
Rewind 10 seconds.
-
Fast-forward 10 seconds.
-
Adjust the playback speed.
-
Mute or unmute the video; hover and move the slider to adjust the volume level.
-
Turn subtitles on or off.
-
Open a panel displaying a transcript of the video, when available.
-
Open the settings menu, where you can enable subtitles, select a different subtitle language, or change the audio language. Subtitle and audio languages vary by title.
-
Go back to the previous page.
-
Enable picture-in-picture.
-
Enter or exit full screen mode.
Note: On the Kanopy website, the progress bar and player buttons are visible whenever your cursor is moving or resting over the bar.
