I think it might be possible that the media feature was decided on for
implementation in 3.6 largely because of two factors: corporate customers' demand (which is always a highest priority than home users for AWI or so Eep and others claimed and I'm not sure if that is true or not but I guess it is) and the rapid development of radio/television broadcasting industry, further accelerated by the "free enterprise" competition within it, in Active Worlds. Example of these rapid development of that industry are the growth of numbers of stations in both of these media such as ABN (television), AWVR (Radio), VWTV (television), and many others competing for their listeners/viewers, even though they don't make money from it but the concept of free enterprise still applies. So there's another bad news for communism. ;) -- Legion An economic professor....

That isn't new. It has been in AW for a while. Not a new thing. I don't know
when it was actually first implemented but it's certainly not 3.6 feature. -- Legion "I think, therefore I am" - Rene Descartes, 17th-century French philosopher, Earth [View Quote] carlbanksMay 1, 2004, 8:08pm

Really? O_O
It surprises me that world owners don't use this more often in their designs. [View Quote] > That isn't new. It has been in AW for a while. Not a new thing. I don't know > when it was actually first implemented but it's certainly not 3.6 feature. > jaguar hahnMay 1, 2004, 8:43pm
Never heard of it before. If it's not new then why can't I use it in AW
right now? Hmm... Jaguar Hahn [View Quote] legionMay 1, 2004, 8:57pm
You'd still need to use animate command to make it work as the page Rossyboy
mentioned above said, I think. I've heard of it a while ago but I haven't used it yet so I don't know... -- Legion "I think, therefore I am" - Rene Descartes, 17th-century French philosopher, Earth [View Quote] c pMay 1, 2004, 9:08pm

by tv objects i ment picture objects, tvs being picture objects

Well I suppose it is easier to write on sign objects than on picture
objects. If the media command is in an activate section, you can write a description and show what it is. Once you click on the object, the media download starts and the screen changes. But maybe picture objects could also be used?

Has anybody tried out yet whether (and how) you can disable streaming in
the client (or the command as a world-wide option)? [View Quote] brockMay 2, 2004, 11:46am

Just update your format, i believe SnagIt allows you to record videos.

I just got an email from someone named Marcus W with a question regarding AW
3.6. I couldn't answer his question since I'm not exactly an expert on that subject so I asked him if I can post his question here so that you folks can answer and he said yes, so you can answer this question. Here is the copy: Hello, It is great to see streaming being added to AW. I was curious how this would be achieved. If someone puts stream A in location 1, and another stream B in location 2, is there a way to keep stream A going and not cause an interruption when someone moves from location 1 to 2? Vice versa, if someone goes to location 2 first is there a way to make sure they can still hear the stream without another stream interrupting? It's a great idea to add streaming but I see a lot of soft spots. Would it be possible to have like a headphone feature where a user could listen to 1 constant stream, which they would select at GZ, and this would override any other stream assignments?

I almost forgot to mention that he couldn't post it here since he doesn't
have a citizenship here so... -- Legion "I think, therefore I am" - Rene Descartes, 17th-century French philosopher, Earth [View Quote] legionMay 2, 2004, 5:05pm
I almost forgot to tell you folks to post your answer here as well. Sorry
about inconvenience. All email replies to this to me as of this time shall be relayed to Marcus W. Thank you. -- Legion "I think, therefore I am" - Rene Descartes, 17th-century French philosopher, Earth [View Quote] xelagMay 2, 2004, 6:55pm
Legion,
even the 3.6 beta testers do not know yet full details of how this media will be implemented, except that it can be used in the usual sections of the action field: create, activate, etc.. The stage we are in is just debugging the actual media stream. Once that is completed, we will offer our ideas to the AWI people. Of course, any concrete ideas you have even if you are not beta testers are welcome here, only don't send them directly to AWI yet, or you might get fulminated, fried or quartered, we have been asked to wait with suggestions :) Alex [View Quote] >I just got an email from someone named Marcus W with a question regarding AW >3.6.
