Flicker/small jumps and HTML vs Flash
Posted: 3 Dec 2012 at 14:50 GMT 		reply
Hi all you panorists!
I just walked into this beautiful world

I made a flashVR of a church, but I am having trouble because there is a flickering when I am rotating.
Flickering is perhaps not the correct word. I mean "not smooth"
When i exported in HTML though - it is much more smooth
View the differences here:
The picture is 8000x4000 px

FLASH

HTML:
www.jesperfrehr.dk/Panoramas/output/IMG_6655-Pano...

First question? Am I missing something? Have I done something wrong? - or is it just that way because of the size of the flashfile?
I can see on this link www.panoramaphotographer.com/comparisons/web/fpp-...
that other Flash players are smoother when playing Flash e.g. KRpano and Flash Panorama player. Are they better in interpreting the flash file?


I probably want to use the HTMLversion on my site. Because of the Jagginess (is that the correct word?)
Question two: why should I not use HTML? It can be viewed on multiple platforms (ipad, android) and...
Is there a security problem in people watching the code?

Looking forward to hear your answer

Regards
Jesper

Hi Jesper,

I would call it juddering, and I think it is comes from the processing time needed to generate the image. Some viewers use more efficient algorithms that need less processing power. My preference is for DevalVR, but this is windows only and not as common as Flash. Perhaps HTML5 is the future, I have not used it.

BTW your links did not work for me...
