Can't view media at Ubume x Origami event

[bluelacroix]

Hi everyone!

 

Not sure if this is the right place for this but i can't view media in the Ubume x Origami event.

 

i followed the directions to turn on media, and i'm pretty sure i've used it before but a long time ago.

 

I attached the demo movie they have here but it just plays a static screen - i don't think it is working.

 

I went ahead through the game and where it would show a movie it didn't, so i'm pretty sure it's not working.

 

I installed Adobe Flash Player PPAPI and restarted Firestorm, same result.

 

The event I'm trying is here (this was in the Linden favourite spots email 8/19):

Follwoing their directions, I downloaded and installed Adobe PPAPI

I checked Prefernces 'sound & media' and i already had checked 'allow media to auto-play'

i clicked the little movie camera icon in the top right corner of my screen.  It toggles between a movie camera and a pause icon.

Under the 'Master' settings the Media box is checked and the slider is in the middle.

 

At that point i wear the demo movie they give at the event but the screen is static.

 

is there a way to check media somewhere else, maybe this sim is borked?

 

My graphics and FS version is this:

CPU: AMD A8-5500 APU with Radeon(tm) HD Graphics (3194.03 MHz)
Memory: 16326 MB
OS Version: Microsoft Windows 8.1 64-bit (Build 9600)
Graphics Card Vendor: NVIDIA Corporation
Graphics Card: GeForce GTX 750 Ti/PCIe/SSE2

Firestorm 4.7.3 (47323) Aug 18 2015 03:46:39 (Firestorm-Releasex64) with OpenSimulator support

 

Any help much appreciated!

 

All the best - and havea Gr8 SL Day!

You're using a really outdated version of Firestorm.

Either update to Firestorm 4.7.9 & the media should play with Flash PPAPI installed, or install the NPAPI flash plugin, which should get media working for you on Firestorm 4.7.3.

Thank you Whirly!

 

The more I read this, the more I think it is the Adobe plug-in for Chrome, not FS.  I installed the PPAPI and restarted Chrome, but I'm wondering how it gets from FS to Chrome.  When I attach the demo movie is it going to automatically open a page in Chrome, or do i have to click something first?  I am already running Chrome.

 

I'll try the upgrade of FS too but if this is really supposed to play in Chrome then I'd rather not, my FS is realatively bug-free on this version, I had nightmares on most previous, and i assume future, versions.

 

Thanks for your reply!

Well, 4.7.3 is about to be blocked: http://www.firestormviewer.org/blocking-4-7-3-on-sept-3rd/

If you have any problems after update to 4.7.9, let me know.

Once you are on 4.7.9, this post explains how to get all media working: http://www.firestormviewer.org/tv-not-working-on-4-7-7/
