== Prerequite ==
<blockquote>
The prerequisites to enable Video & Sound are:
* The media or streaming contents must be '''accessible from the Internet'''.
* '''QuickTime''' shall be installed on the client machine running the viewer.
* Only '''QuickTime 7 Audio/Video Formats''' are supported.
* The streaming content are fed directly to Quicktime from your viewer.
</blockquote>
 

== Add background Music ==
<blockquote>
To add background music (MP3, MP3 or OGG) on on parcel, right-click the parcel and select '''About land...'''. 
Under the '''Media''' tab, fill in the '''Music URL''' e.g.: 
* '''http:/ /<my_domain>/qsmanager/audio/music.mp3'''. This enable you to play only one track and the background music will end with the track.
* Alternative solution is to '''"stream" a playlist''' (''iTunes, WinAmp, etc.'') but you need to have a audio streamer to run somewhere.
</blockquote>
 

== Add Movies ==
<blockquote>
NOTES:
* Movies file names are case-sensitive.
* Only one movie per region can be setup (''cannot create movie playlist'')

* You can create a file (e.g. '''movie.qtl''') such as:
<blockquote>
<pre>
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<?quicktime type="application/x-quicktime-media-link"?>
<embed
moviename="Movie title"
src="http://your_domain.com/qsmanager/media/video/movies.mp4"
/>
</pre>
</blockquote>
* In the toolbar click '''World/About land''' then the '''Media''' tab.
* Set '''Movie type''' to '''Movie''', and click '''Set'''. Type the URL to the here above ''movie.qtl'' file or directly to your video (http://your_domain.com/qsmanager/media/video/movies.mp4)
* Create a flat prim (''movie screen'') that will display the media.
* Select the prim face for the screen and place the "'''Default Media texture'''" on it. Any prims with this texture will display the video in the current region
* Click the prim '''Content''' tab and create a '''New script'''.
* Drop the '''Freeview script''' into the new script (available [http://opensimulator.org/wiki/Streaming_Media_in_OpenSim here]).

== Multiple Audio & Video ==
<blockquote>
In order to have multiple audio or video screens, you need to:
* split your region into parcels [1] (''Right click / Edit terrain /Subdivide'')
* setup the audio and/or video link accordingly
* Assign a different texture for each video in both the screen and the parcel (''About land / Media'')
* If you have Voice Chat enabled on the region, check the setting for the new created parcels too. 
[1] Check in '''View''' menu, the '''Property Lines''' to easily identify each parcel 
[[Image:Q-Sims_Multiple_Video.jpg|thumb|500px|center| Multiple videos in different parcels of the same region]]
 
Avatar can view only one video at a time and the displayed video corresponds to the video of the region/parcel where the avatar is located (''may be different from what you are expecting if you have move the camera far away from your avatar'').
* Video will automatically starts when you avatar enter the parcels/regions with videos if you have checked '''Automatically play media''' in the '''Preferences / Audio & Video'''.
