Media texture on one face of an object automatically resets back to no media after a certain amount of time

I'm just wondering why this happens as it's quite inconvenient. I made a simple TV and applied the default media texture from "about land" to one face with YouTube as the homepage, but it keeps getting removed by itself. If anyone knows how to maintain the media texture on one face of an object (maybe with a script) I'd much appreciate the info. Cheers.

I cleared my cache recently and that seems to have solved the problem. If anyone else has this then that's why. Cheers.

Sorry, that was misinformation. It hasn't solved the problem. After a while it still resets to no media.

I've done this with a script and specifically using a youtube playlist. There are a series of little addons to the link you can add to ensure it loops forever. Video can't be adult either as those are restricted to being viewed on the website only. I should add I made the video myself so not sure if that impacts it either. Ultimately I had a floor at a gallery run a video non stop for a month.

Thanks aht1981.  That sounds great, although I was hoping to just have the YouTube homepage stay on the media face of my TV object constantly, ready to use whenever I want, for playing YouTube videos.

I was looking on the marketplace and I've just bought this, which I believe will do what I want and more:
