[M.E. Verhagen]

Could media on a prim be an alternative ?

explained in the other thread, you are running a mega-region instead of 4
separate "regular" regions, and there are certain known issues with
mega-regions.

this paragraph:
> One of the most interesting developments in Opensim lately have been
megaregions. Megaregions are non-standard “big” regions created by
combining several standard, 256×256 meters regions. For example, you can
combine four standard regions in a square to get a megaregion of 512×512 m.
Megaregions are very convenient because of several reasons: for example the
usual lag in region crossings disappears completely (since you are in the
“same” region), and the same is true of vehicles. On the other hand,
megaregion support is still experimental, and a number of things that work
in normal regions don’t work or work only partially in megaregions. For
example, you cannot define parcels outside of the SW region (this is due to
the way parcel maps work), and therefore you can’t have independent music
streams (for example) when x > 256 or y > 256.

the mailing list archives for answers to questions about opensim before
asking the lists, too - http://opensim-users.2152040.n2.nabble.com/.  If
you want to have 4 regular regions instead of a mega-region, the comments
on that post I linked above has some information and google may yield other
results as well.
