Deploying Screencast with basic authentication

The NewsGator ScreenCast application is packaged as a Microsoft ClickOnce application. On SharePoint, a ClickOnce application requires NTLM authentication.

SharePoint sites with Basic authentication with not allow downloading the NewsGator ScreenCast application.

Workarounds:

  • If your corporate or IT policy allows for it, you can set authentication of your SharePoint sites to use NTLM instead of Basic authentication.
  • If your corporate or IT policy does not allow you to modify the site authentication, you can copy the NewsGator ScreenCast download location on a network drive and provide a link on the Video Stream page to point to this Windows File Share.
