[Opensim-users] What should I do to play videos on opensim

[Joshua Rubeck]

Okay I have MediaOnPrim enabled in my opensim.ini however if I have a
youtibe link in about land it will not allow me to play the video. It makes
the play media button available but it stops playing after a second and
nothing actually plays.
