How to setting FreeView TV.

To Play Movies in Second Life:

Press - P
Go to Audio/Visual
Make sure you have "Play Streaming Movies" Checked, also "Play Streaming Music" if you like.

After that you should have a movie control on bottom of your screen.

If you still don't have a movie control on bottom of your screen, you will have to download Quicktime Media Player (to play any movies in Second Life). Go to www.quicktime.com and install their free movie player, after that you will have a movie control on bottom of your screen.

Just press play to see the show!

- Setting FreeView on a parcel owned by a single person

1. Drop FreeView in your parcel.

You're done.

Dont worry about the "FreeView Remote" object - feel free to get rid of it. It is only there for group owned parcels. You do not need it for a private parcel.


- Setting FreeView on a parcel owned by a group.

1. Set the object as "Share with group", and make sure that all of its permissions are enabled (copy, modify, transfer).

2. Enter the object's contents, and make sure that all its internal items are also set as "Share with group". Make sure that they are also all checked as "copy, modify, transfer".

3. Set the object's affiliation to the group that owns the parcel.


4. Press the "Deed" button to make the object owned by the group. (only group officers can do this. Ask a group officer if you are not a group officer.).

And thats it. To use the television controls, make sure that you have your group title selected. FreeView will open the menu only to its owner, or people who have the same group affiliation as itself.

NOTE: The WebGuide does not work straight out of the box on group-owned parcels. To configure the webguide on group parcels, please read the following section: "Setting up WebGuide support on Group-owned parcels".

- Setting up WebGuide support on Group-owned parcels

As part of the SecondLife limitations, group-deeded objects cannot open browser URLs.

To overcome this limitation, FreeView has a special "FreeView Remote" object available in the package.

To configure this remote, perform the following steps:

1. Rez the remote object next to the FreeView viewer object.

2. Set the remote's group affiliation to the parcel's group to prevent an auto-return.
** DO NOT DEED THE REMOTE TO GROUP **

This is important. Just leave it owned by a single person, yet group affiliated.

3. Click the FreeView TV and go through the following menu options:

Video -> Configuration -> Set Remote

You're done.

The remote will now open the URLs for you whenever you choose to open on FreeView!

- Letting other people use FreeView on your private parcel

Normally, FreeView will only listen and open the dialog menus for its owner. However, if you wish to allow other people to open the dialog and control the script, you can perform the following steps:

1. Edit the object and set it to a group.

Thats it. From this moment, anyone who has the gro
up you chose active and selected on themselves, will be able to open the menu on the object.

- Access controls on group-owned land

When Deeded, FreeView will open its menu and accept commands from anyone who is a member of the group it has been deeded to. The person does not have to be an officer. (Scripts cannot detect if a person is a group officer or not!)

There is no way to limit FreeView to interacting only with select people. To do so, please look in the next section: "Advance modification of access controls in the source".
