Hello,

I found a simple script that when droped into an object, the object acts as a basic remote
Is there a script i could use that hides that media url when you select a stream?
With the basic script in use, when an object is touched, it pops up a menu but when
you broowse the different urls it also shows the url for each movie file, i'd like to hide that
Am guessing this is the same script i'd find in most movie players in sl only customised?

Thanks later

If the script is not proprietary, post it here, so we can look. There are several media players around, many use "Bucky's Radio" code, which was derived from "Diane's Radio" code. If its based on Bucky's, look for code similar to this:

CODE
doListStations(string mode) {
integer i;
integer startPos;
integer endPos;

if (mode == "a") {
startPos = 0;
endPos = totalStations - 1;
} else {
startPos = curStationOffset;
endPos = curStationEnd;
}

for (i = startPos; i <= endPos; i++) {
string newURL = llList2String(_radioURLs, i);
string newDesc = llList2String(_radioStations, i);
llSay(0, (string)(i + 1) + ": " + newDesc + " = " + newURL);
}
}


That last line that says, "llSay" is probably what you want. Just change it to:
llSay(0, (string)(i + 1) + ": " + newDesc);

You may not want do this in the station Set Up portions of the script. When entering a new URL, you're going to want it to repeat back--so you can test for errors.
