Hi Hopki

We can save 360 Photos with simple pan and zoom animation etc and export for YouTube.
This video file will play in a linear timeline but doesn't allow any user input.

Does Pano2VR allow me to save a 360 equi photo as a video so that it can be added to YouTube and Twitter or any platform that supports 360 Video?
Crucially, the viewer must be able to pan themselves etc.

I'm not sure if i'm using the correct terminology here.
Cheers

Hi sparrow,
You can load the pano into photoshop and open the time line, Window => Timeline.
Make a MP4 video from the pano. This can then be uploaded to YouTube.
But I would just upload the pano to say Facebook.
If you drop your image into Pano2VR first, then click the convert button then set type to Equirectangular and convert.
This will inject the required meta data Facebook will need.
Regards,
Hopki
