Hi,
I am trying a simple script working that changes the music URL on land that I own. I want to use llParcelMediaCommandList with PARCEL_MEDIA_COMMAND_AGENT so that each agent has their own stream.
I can't seem to get this working:
llParcelMediaCommandList([
PARCEL_MEDIA_COMMAND_AGENT, id,
PARCEL_MEDIA_COMMAND_TYPE, "audio/*",
PARCEL_MEDIA_COMMAND_URL, "http://scfire-mtc-aa04.stream.aol.com:80/stream/1007" ]);
I tried the music URL directly in the Music URL field in the About Land's Media tab to make sure that it works. I own the land (not group owned land), and llSetParcelMusicURL works.
I am running SL on a MacBook Pro, if that makes any difference. I have also tried variations of the media type (audio/mp4, audio, and unspecified) and called PARCEL_MEDIA_COMMAND_STOP along with PARCEL_MEDIA_COMMAND_PLAY in separate calls to llParcelMediaCommandList - no change.
I thought this was supposed to work - any ideas?

From: Void Singer did you try audio/mpeg ? (I get it as an mp3 stream) Yup - audio/mpeg and a few other variations - none work (including audio/* and just leaving out the type altogether). I have asked around - some mention that they have better luck with video than audio. Does this *really* work? |

I use the media system extensively in my products and I've found that Audio streams through parcel media have been borked since they added html on a prim to the mix. I don't know what they did, but Audio Media hasn't worked right for me ever since.

Hmm. Works for me. On Linux, but I can't imagine that being an advantage for streaming media. I added a PARCEL_MEDIA_COMMAND_PLAY to the end of the list, just to get it to start automatically, but the OP says that was tried already, so don't think that really has anything to do with it.
You're sure you have the object deeded to whomever owns the parcel, right?
Did you try the non-_AGENT version? (That also works for me.) And/or equivalently, typing in the URL to the parcel Media (not Music) field in About Land?
[ETA: May have spoken too soon about Linux being no advantage. Still working fine on Linux viewer 1.23.4; on Windoze, same viewer version, it switches the media control to playing, but no sound from parcel media audio stream in any way I've tried to set it, but video stream sound works fine.]
[ETA further: On my Linux install, it is perfectly happy to play audio streams with _TYPE specified as "video/*"--in which case it uses the little "projector" icon next to the media play button. When it plays it as "audio/*" it uses the document icon, as if it were a webpage, but plays the audio stream anyway. I'm thinking that the sim isn't sending the viewer that audio _TYPE information correctly, and my Linux/gstreamer install just doesn't care, maybe.]
