[BUG-232856] llSetLinkMedia definition

[sl-service-account]

What just happened?

I am using llSetLinkMedia function on faces of some mesh clothes. I am facing two problems:

• some mp4 files are stated as incompatible
• some others mp4 files can't loop (read once only and stop) Some mp4 files are OK (read and loop).

What were you doing when it happened?

it's a simple script:

llSetLinkMedia(prim,face,[ PRIM_MEDIA_CURRENT_URL,path_video+(string)value,

PRIM_MEDIA_PERMS_INTERACT,PRIM_MEDIA_PERM_NONE, PRIM_MEDIA_PERMS_CONTROL,PRIM_MEDIA_PERM_NONE, PRIM_MEDIA_AUTO_SCALE,TRUE, PRIM_MEDIA_AUTO_ZOOM,TRUE, PRIM_MEDIA_AUTO_PLAY,TRUE, PRIM_MEDIA_AUTO_LOOP,TRUE ]);

What were you expecting to happen instead?

mp4 files to be read and to be looped

Other information

there is no info about video files constraints in: https://wiki.secondlife.com/wiki/LlSetLinkMedia

may you add info about video constraints (mp4 or other formats) to make them compatible with media on faces of attached mesh objects.

if necessary, I will change some size, compression format, compression parameters to make my videos compatible with SL media projection on faces of attached mesh objects.

Hi Ophelatex,

The media decoding is handled by LibVLC Version: 3.0.16. Whatever media is handled by that should work in the viewer.

Do you have links to the media that does not loop and the media that does not play at all?

Hi Ophelatex, Please provide a URL to a movie that you are trying to play so that we can investigate.
