What are the available (and recommended) panorama software (stitching & converting to flash) for OSX?

If it was for Windows my choices would be PTGUI, Pano2VR, Autopano. Anything similar for mac users?

I mean that the image is blocking and tearing while moving. the movement is not smooth as should be.

Hello all,
since Im new to this and after reading 1000 posts on this forum ,I would like to ask a question.
Please recommend to beginning users like me, what type of equipment they should use. I mean: hardware and software.
I would like to create virtual tours, with interactive maps which will include a menu of panoramas etc..
thank you all.
god bless

Interesting ideas guys. My concern is how do you ensure that the camera is always aiming at the center spot of the car? Anyone ever tried using a magnetic compass?

Hi all,

It's not often that I struggle with PTGui & stitching problems - but these images have caused chaos! Can someone with lots more experience than me take a look. Here’s the ZIP of the 5 images, and the PTS file:

What am I doing wrong – because this has really stumped me.

Thanks

Hi all,

I've got a big job from a home developer needing there latest models shot in HDR panos. I've got the HDR skill and the best pano stitcher (PtGui) ... just running into problems with files over 8000 px. I've heard that the ideal for full screen is 6000 x 3000. That holds true if I run the Pure Player file in itself ... but the moment I have to open it in HTML web pages - the image breaks up on my 20" monitor and gets clunky to move. My client is going to display the panos both on the web and on a 25" tablet touch screen in their sales center. I'll be creating 2 different sized files for the displays.
Is Pure Tools the best way to go ... if so ... what would be the ideal resolution?
If not... what other programs can handle a job like this ... I'm open to Flash based programs etc.

Thanks for any help you can give.

By the way - here's a look at some HDR panos I shot in France last summer.

Hi all,
Can I ask which panorama player you are using?
It's been a little while since I made pano's.
I used to use FPP (FlashPanoramas Player) but I have a feeling that it is no longer getting updated and players like KRPano have since past it in functionality.

As I said, I'm a newbie, and I have another question.

This time, I was wondering if it's possible to convert a panorama image into a video (not a VR) and what kind of software I need to use. I have searched and tried everything that I could think of, Flash, Adobe Premiere, but nothing worked.

What I want to do is, turn a panorama into a video of a set size, perhaps 500x350px, maybe 20 seconds, and have the video automatically scroll/pan the photo from one side of the panorama to the other. Does that make sense?

I want to upload this video on Flickr, rather than a whole wide panorama.

Thanks again!
