MariahWhispers Posted January 31, 2012 Share Posted January 31, 2012 How do I enable media. Trying to play the game at Caldon but says I must enable it to read the board. In preferences it looks like it is enabled. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peggy Paperdoll Posted January 31, 2012 Share Posted January 31, 2012 Do you have all three boxes checked in preferences? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MariahWhispers Posted January 31, 2012 Author Share Posted January 31, 2012 Don't know, but thanks I will check!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MariahWhispers Posted January 31, 2012 Author Share Posted January 31, 2012 I don't see any heading like you show. Am I in the wrong preferences place? I have general, input and camera, network and folder, web, graphics, text chat, voice chat, communication,pop ups, skins, grids, and Pheonix. I'm using Pheonix viewer. Is there more the one preference places? Are what viewer and you using? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peggy Paperdoll Posted January 31, 2012 Share Posted January 31, 2012 I'm using Viewer 3.2 (not the newest release but the next one back........I always wait a while before opting for the newest of anything). On Pheonix I'm not sure but check all tabs.........the lay out will be similar. It should be on the same tab as you used to enable media. If it's not there then when you want to hear music or see video there is an icon on the UI for the viewer to start media (or play.........it's been a long time since I've used a 1.23 based viewer and I no longer use TPV's. It's there though. There are a lot of Pheonix users here.......someone will chime in I'm sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MariahWhispers Posted January 31, 2012 Author Share Posted January 31, 2012 Anyone else please read ,my last reply above. It works on the Second Life viewer but that viewer is way to slow compared to my Pheonix. About 12 times slower. I need settings for Pheonix. To the last poster to reply I don't know anything about viewer 3.2 is that a different one altogether? On the UI? I am new what is that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peggy Paperdoll Posted January 31, 2012 Share Posted January 31, 2012 Viewer 3 is an Second Life official viewer. A TPV is a third part viewer.........Pheonix is a TPV (one of the most popular). A UI is the user interface....what the user sees and all the menus and functions are placed (the menus usually have slightly different names and the features and functions vary somewhat..........also they may have different names. That makes if somewhat difficult to help someone when the helper is not familar with the UI (as I'm not in your case). Pheonix is based on the old SL viewer 1.23 (which is no longer offered for download by Linden Lab)..........that's why I said I forgot where the things in a 1.23 based viewer are located). Pheonix works for media and music.........that much I do know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jenni Darkwatch Posted January 31, 2012 Share Posted January 31, 2012 If they require media on a prim, you're screwed. None of the old viewers support that, as far as I know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Charolotte Caxton Posted January 31, 2012 Share Posted January 31, 2012 I think that's it, Jenni, if she's talking about the Caledon sims. If she is in Caledon though, anyone there can help her. Unless of course they themselves are new. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ceka Cianci Posted January 31, 2012 Share Posted January 31, 2012 you coudl try firestorm..they have a few options where you can choose a viewer interface of v3 or phoenix viewer.. i wouldn't have auto media on..there is just too much security risk with that.. just media is all you would need.. phoenix firestorm has the media filters ..so it's a little more secure in tht area than the official viewer..

MaddiHills Posted March 27, 2013 Share Posted March 27, 2013 I was wondering the exact same thing.. But I use Singularity Viewer. I bought a television that says it only works if you turn on media... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
