| well as topic title ...
i want to make an existing video i have to a panoramic one with headtracking.
i know quicktime vr can do this with still images but i need mine to have video and audio (in sync). been looking for days n cant seem to find nothing! (it doesnt need to be in stereo images (3d)) just like a vr room but witha video for background that you can look around.
if i havent described it well its because i dont know the proper terms! sorry i could explain it more if ya ask what needs clearing up!
anyhelp would be greatly appreciated!

| | Hi I cant help with any advice right now, but what an awesome idea!! Ill look into it tomorrow at work (I do video, modeling and animation) as my home editing system is down right now. If there is some way of zooming into the video in a media player in windows, and using the mouse to pan left and right, you could then view through the vr920 and pan using the awesome Glovepie using fakemouse script. Carl Kenner could probably help you out a lot better than me, that guy knows some stuff ill tell ya!! Ill let u know soon as I've had a go at it, u got me wantin to do this too!!  Marz |

| nice one buddy!
i asked a lecturer in uni and he said that it could be mocked up in director... we didnt get into full on details but he said it would be by using a mouse like command to scroll thru different sections.... but at the mo i got a dissertation to do as ive really started fallin behind on it!!! anyone fancy writing a few thousand words! ha hahah a ....
i thin k we got a meeting next week to look into it a bit more!
but it may fall thru who knows all options are considered!
if i can get the codeing for it or when i find out how to do it then it will be a deffo post up here! |

| this would be so cool to have like a flight video filmed from multi cameras catching all 360 degrees and then have tracking so its like u are realy in the plane  i was playing around with mouse look and windows magnifier. it works "alittle jumpy but if u got that smoothed out and were able to play a video on 1 screen and set the magnifier view to full screen on the vr920 and also be able to view the video on it "i had overlay problems using nvidia where u see wmp and other players as black screens. this also made me think of another idea using the magnifier app. if u were able to use both the vr920 screen to display seperate things u could have 1 screen show the desktop as normal in 1027x768 or wat ever the max res is and the other screen show the first screen through the magnifier cause it makes it realy clear and u would still be able to navigate the screen well having the full screen view  |

| | Frogger's idea is a very useful and feasible one. But, one can use a P5 glove, which I have one, to move the view around in the 360 degree panoramic video. |

| It can definatly be done in director, maybe even in flash...
You would need glovepie to make the tracking talk to the application. (eg set mouse left/right, up/down according to tracking info)
Director:
- playback video offscreen in director.
- grab an image of every frame of the video and map it as texture onto inside of 3D sphere.
- put camera in center of sphere, and rotate is according to head/mouse position.
tada...
I think I could have this fixed in about half a day... once I finally get my VR920. (shipping and customs takes ages...)

| Do you want a video to play on a flat screen that is larger than the screen of the VR920 so you have to turn you head to see the left and right of the screen? Like watching a movie theater screen if you are sitting too close to the screen.
Or do you want a circular screen that wraps around you 180 degrees or 360 degrees and that's always at the same distance away from you? |

| | My personal solution would be to create a small virtual 3D room with two walls, or two curved wall sections. -The two walls that are in the 3d room would be created to match the direction (read ANGLES) that the two panaramic cameras are facing apart, and the CURVE of their aspect. -Film the multi camera material - Map the videos on to the 3d walls that you created in the above 3d virtual room. - Launch the room with your VR920 on and 'move' about the room with the sync'd videos playing |

| | Hello Forum Newbie, i'll be very intrested in your solution if u do find one, i'm organising an event for a company and it's based on a virtual and 3D tour of the city of london, with not less than 20 people at a time taking the tour, if your company can handle it, i'll pay for your services, please send me a mail at this address if you'll like points clarified kunleakintayo2001@yahoo.co.uk, thank you. Kunle Akintayo Showbiz Network Services Lagos, Nigeria. PS: I have less than a week to convince my client that it can be done and that we already have the resources to do it, i can come over to the States once you have a solution for me, by the way my client is British American Tobaco Company and the brand we are working for is London Cigarettes.
