Streaming music script

New version (0. released with very minor addition (you can now press "s" to stop all the currently playing streams). As usual, uploaded to:

http://stux.wikiinfo.org/moin.py/Tools

I have just released version 0.9. This just removes the xhost + bit. I decided it was too much of a security hole. If you use xhost, and the new slstream will not work, type xhost + before running the script (and xhost - immediately after!), but please ensure you are also using xauth, or have X11 forwarding switched off!

Just noticed in the latest version of SL, video streams have stopped working with slstream.

The problem is the tag has changed from 8 to 12. I have uploaded a new version of the script which should now work with video as well as audio streams.

Is anyone else having problems calling up web pages with the script?

I am getting music streams and video no problem, but can't seem to get web pages anymore. Admittedly I've only tried getting jukebox requests in The Elbow Room! Earlier versions of the script up to 0.9 worked fine but not since using the current and previous version of SL (v 1_11_3_1) and v 0.10 of the script.

Not a disaster, but I had got used to getting web access.......

Clues gratefully received....

I never really was convinced the web thing was working but I'm glad it worked for you for a while....

If you could let me know where I can test it out (SL location etc.) I will try to fix it.

I think it is likely that the tag for web urls has changed with one of the recent releases, as movie tags changed.

In the past it has always worked in the Elbow Room (Mare 106,51,56). Typing "/jukebox" always used to bring up the browser. But alas no more...... I have to dance to other people tunes (just like RL hmmmmm).

I wondered if the tag had changed. But was beyond my competence to check

PS Thanks Theora (and Christine)..... this script has made soooo much difference to SL!! Excellent stuff

Suntan: as you know I have now fixed the script!

For everyone else, the tag has changed to 234 for web pages.. I am doing some research into what other tags mean too.. The new version will be uploaded to the usual place when I get the chance.. bed now!

Edit: Wiki seems to be read only at the moment, so I'm afraid people will have to download 0.10 and make the change to the web tag themselves for the time being.

Hmmmm, well it looks like the tag for web pages has changed again with the latest version (1.12.0.13) as my requests are failing again in the Elbow Room! Is there an easy way to check?

S

It's now 237..

Just use print tag to get a list of all the tags the script picks up..

Thanks Theora.....

Oh and just to make matters more confusing, the video tag is now 4!
