Media on a Prim

[Zousug Corvinus]

Hey all,

I have a item that when clicked on comes up with a menu to do a few different things.

attached is another prim that has a face thats set to media, was wondering..

How can i change the media on prim url?

Also, can i hide the bar that shows *stop play home etc*?

And any way to have it only play when the play button is pressed in the menu system i have?

 

thanks in advanced

If the URL is set only when the button is pressed, and the media face is turned off otherwise, and the viewer has auto-play enabled. Not necessarily recommended for general use.

Thanks for the reply, was about to make a quick update post hehe

I have the code in to set the url and its set auto play = false.. I then have these two buttons

            if(msg == "Radio On")
            {
                llSetLinkMedia(2, 2, [PRIM_MEDIA_CURRENT_URL, msg, PRIM_MEDIA_AUTO_PLAY, TRUE]);
            }
            else if(msg == "Radio Off")
            {
                llSetLinkMedia(2, 2, [PRIM_MEDIA_CURRENT_URL, ""]);
            }
            else
            {

The Radio On option works, makes it so it plays but radio off is not taking the URL away to turn it off.. *is there away to change it to HOME which should always be blank as away to switch it off?*

 

Iv had the off set to PRIM_MEDIA_CURRENT_URL as well with no url just "" and still dont work

https://wiki.secondlife.com/wiki/LlClearLinkMedia should work. Also, I think most viewers ignore the PRIM_MEDIA_AUTO_PLAY setting. It's a helpful suggestion to the viewer, but don't rely on it too heavily.

if you're using your code above, "Radio On" doesn't look like a valid URL. . .

I'd recommend not using literal faces and links except for basic testing. However, if you don't mind clearing ALL media, try

llClearLinkMedia(LINK_SET, ALL_SIDES);

The URL is set in the admin menu.. on is just meant to set it to play, off to stop

you're using msg (which has just been confirmed to have the value "Radio On") as the CURRENT_URL when you probably intend a variable representing the URL.
