This page is for scribbling ideas for Torley's Video Tutorials, including the omnifriendly "Tip of the Week" series. Feel free to add your own suggestions — if this page gets too long, we may need to organize it better, but for now, go wild using the format below:

Here we go!

How to use streaming parcel media

  • Cover music + movies.
  • Show examples of playing .MP3s and .MOVs.
  • Video capture of web browser and URLs.
  • Make the very strong point that Linden Lab does not store content, we merely pass it along from an external webserver.

How to login with multiple accounts

  • Explain command line parameters briefly.
  • Show Second Life shortcut on desktop. (This will be Windows-specific, but in the text part of the blog post, there should be a link to Mac + Linux info.)
  • Also show how to login automatically but if I do this, BE VERY SURE to explain security risks involved.
  • Launch two viewers and show them both running momentarily.

How to terraform

  • Useful for landowners and showing the benefit to those interested in land.
  • Explain the somewhat-confusing UI and show what each tool does on a blank patch.
  • I reckon I'll wait for Gigs' {jira|VWR-2331} to be added first, it'd add a lot of nuances to the art.
