It seems to me that a group member with the ability to change media URLs checked in group abilities should be able to change the media URL on land set to group, no? This did not seem to work for me. Is there some step I'm missing?

I believe said land has to be deeded to the group. Parcel permissions won't work if it's just "set" to group.
I could be wrong, but I'm pretty sure that's how it is.

A prim owned by the landowner, with a script to allow group members to chat/notecard a media URL would do it. It would be a minimalist 'radio tuner'

my land is just set group and the mixer (stream changer) I have works it needs to be set to allow through a note card and also the scripted prim (mixer) needs to be deeded to group.
there are many radios out there that will work and then some that wont.

A prim owned by the avatar land owner can 'do stuff' that the landowner can do. This is the same as a deeded prim doing stuff for group-owned land.

From: Ceera Murakami Nope. Only on land DEEDED to the group. Wrong. Shared agent owned radios can be used by others. Even "none" = "same group" if both set the same.

Even "none" = "same group" if both set the same. All the multimedia systems I have installed said clearly that for them to work at all on Group-owned land, the radio/TV Tuner has to be deeded to the group. If the land is owned by an individual, then yes, a tuner owned by the land owner can be used by other people to change parcel streams. But Marianne's question was not about device-assisted parcel media changes. It was whether or not the group role permission for setting the media URL would allow individuals to change the stream, if the land was only set to group. And the answer there remains that for most group roles to function on a parcel, the group must OWN the land. The land must be deeded to the group, or the group role permissions are meaningless.
