Hi,
I'm trying to find a way of displaying videos on prim textures without having to be restricted to the single url set in the land options.
All the content is sat on my server and is already on the web .
I've heard that this is possible through scripting
and ideas?
Thanks

you would have to divide the land for each video but you would have to be on that parcel to see them or make buttons that load videos, i made a script that will load videos on to the land and start playing when touched -LW

Hi Boris, actually you can do this using the Quicktime layer instead of the base parcel media tab. I bought such a product from a designer under the brand of silverstream I think. I will check when next in world and add the designer's name here. Possibly he will be able to suggest some tips for you  I myself have no idea other than theory on how this was achieved, but they use a SL server and some screens with scripts in both, and of course a RL streaming server. I used them inworld in my rental apartments where each renter could view their own video channel without affecting the other despite all the apartments sharing the same parcel

Got it - the site to check out is called www.i3dnow.com and the name of their product that does exactly what you also want to do is Silverstream. They're pretty cheap with these products so I do believe they are more about creating stuff and not so much into enriching themselves so possibly they will guide you in the right direction with your own product  Best of luck!

there is a command that sets the target av for a stream address and can be used to address streams to multiple people on the same parcel, assuming those people have rights to affect it.

Void, do you have some idea of that command and its use in-script? I want to have a go at doing my own for the rentals I have as the product I bought has not been working quite as well as I had hoped (too many bells and whistles). I want to try and code something pretty straightforward against an RL video streaming server if possible.

Hey thank Jesse, this sets me in the right direction, and thanks to the radio script there also allows me to create a second object for each agent on my rental land. I missed this post completely. Many thanks. Ok, someone, pass me the hammer...

O and I forgot, Deanna taught me a para for llParcelMediaCommandList that I did not know existed. I assumed the video product I had seen before simply ignored that completely and used the viewer's quicktime feature to deliver the content.
