The latest World Wide Panorama event is online. I did not have much time to process my entry, an objectVR movie.
Unfortunately the above site requires QuickTime, and that QuickTime is not available for Linux. There are plenty of media players that play linear QuickTime content, but support for QTVR – cylindrical and cubic panoramas as well as object VR movies – often falls short.
Last year the FreePV viewer was a Google Summer of Code project. This year I hope that we can take it further with the help of the team at VideoLAN. The plan is to integrate it in VLC, one of the most popular free media players out there, and my favorite on both Windows and Linux.
