What's the best way to manage creating QTVR tour-type presentations
for deployment on both the Web and DVD? Obviously, I don't want to
do anything twice, so it makes sense to do as much as possible (such
as creating hotspots) with high resolution versions of the movies.
Will hotspots be retained when movies are down-sampled by specifying
a smaller cube face? As it is now, I've been creating high
resolution equirects as the "master" which I then pull into
CubicConverter and save at the desired resolution. But of course,
hotspots can't be stored in an equirect. :-/ Just trying to
figure out an efficient workflow...
p.s. Hey, it just occurred to me that since (as I understand it) the
hotspot track is just an 8-bit graphic with no anti-aliasing, perhaps
the developers of CubicConverter could make the program make use of a
special layer in a Photoshop file that contained the hotspots. Since
I already use Photoshop for touch-up and adjustments to the equirect
image, it would be the most logical and efficient place to define the
hotspots. CubicConverter already reads PS files, so perhaps this is
quite doable. That'd be sweet. Being able to set the color and
opacity of hotspots would be cool too...but that'd be icing on the cake.
Thanks for any tips,
