I have questions about a potential tv in gamemaker 8.0
I call it, "Gamemaker TV" "GMKTV" or "(--7) TV" (--7) represents the old gamemaker logo of a red sphere and silver or gold hammer
hi all, if you didn't know I used to be on the old sandbox.yoyogames.com website,
which is why my avatar is a new version of the pacman avatar
I used to have, and if you can search my username "agamecreator" like this or use archive.org you may be able to even download
some of my old uploaded games / projects!
I still use gamemaker 8.0 ever since 2013 I think, which may very well be when my account was created on the old site
also here is someone playtesting Niklas.exe which I had made based off an old victorian xmas postcard, using but not stealing
someone elses snow flakes falling game program, and in the video description, yep it says my username!
I just re-used my old username from my account because the sandbox website some years ago stopped working
as yoyogames was changing to a new platform / website
anyways
if you look here these are youtube videos of my old visual basic TV, which sadly I think somehow it was deleted or non-retrievable
when my usb broke and the laptop that may also have it on file stopped working
the TV hid the video player controls, so it was more like a real TV
and I had a power off and on button and channel buttons like a remote
Can I somehow stream a live video / tv channel on a video player on gamemaker 8.0 ?? Like how I did in visual basic?
I have started with three rooms, the original TV off room, which you only see when you start the game
the TV on room which shows the intro / info TV screen, and will play the channels
the 2nd TV off room, you will see this after every time you turn the TV off, the original room
you wont be able to go back to nor will you need to go back to that room in the game / executable
this is three rooms because of making a button that has two images, a pressed and released sprites
ok for the urls for the TV
with free VLC media player you click open a network stream and click play when you paste the url
and see if it will play
mms:// urls seem to be outdated, but thats mostly what my old visual basic program played off of
m3u8 and this other resource url seem to work, here is a website where from what it helps with it's also saying of how to find this url
from any live video streaming site that streams a m3u8 video, like maybe a tv channel site, which I found when googling live tv channels
live tv news sports or something like this
https://www.alphr.com/download-video-blob-url/
https://afghanlivetvchannels.com/
this is a good source, if you like Afghan TV
these work and the alphr site says how to convert the url, but for testing if it works just press play
Afghanistan International (news)
RTA (sports) (afghanistan)
Alsace 20 (france)
I just want to make another TV program and since I use gamemaker 8.0 now instead of Visual Basic
well you get the idea, and I used visual basic because I was taking a programming class in high school so thats how I ws introduced to that
