[Opensim-users] Playing streaming media in OpenSim

[Clive Gould]

Hi

I have successfully ported the Linden Script Exhibition from SL into
an OpenSim standalone and the scripts now work :)

However, I am having problems with poster 40, streaming media.

1) With Meerkat the video plays and responds to the script dialog box
instructions (play, pause, stop). However once I have played the movie
once and stopped it from the dialog box, it automatically starts to
play over again unless I hit the Play Movie STOP [] button on the
bottom RHS viewer toolbar. (I have the "Automatically play media"
option in Audio and Video preferences unchecked in the viewer.)

2) With the Hippo viewer the movie will not load and play at all.

This script has worked fine in SL with the SL client for a number of years.

What I wanted to ask is if the above is normal behaviour for streaming
video when using Meerkat and Hippo with OpenSim, or if you think my
script may need modification to work properly?

Comments most welcome.

Thanks

Clive
