Thanks , I am aware of the links you posted, for shure they have nice
tools.

Nice Python script of yours, does it only work under Windows? or is
there a way from
Linux to create Object Movies without using Wine?

It probably only works under Linux/Unix, since it requires
libquicktime and ffmpeg. Although there seems to be an OSX port of
libquicktime, but I don't have a system to check that.

As a side note. There's a small bug in the current version of
libquicktime that makes object movies made with it incompatible with
Apples Quicktime player. If you want to try it either use libquicktime
0.9.8, the current cvs or wait till the next release (which
could take a while).

It would be interesting to list the available production and display
tools
available today for someone working/displaying on a Linux platform:

Available:
1.- Panorama production tools
2.- Object movie production tools
3.- Display alternatives for Panoramas and Object movies

Would be nice to list FOSS and Proprietary alternatives(Flash) that
run under Linux

I can detect the wonderful set of Panorama Tools for production
and display, being Panorama Tools and Hugin

Other sugestions?


Well, there are a few forks of ptviewer around. This one is probably
the best one: http://www.fsoft.it/panorama/ptviewer.htm

You already mentioned panotools and Hugin. Search for "panorama"
sourceforge.net to get a list of a few more projects, although most of
them seem pretty dead.

Here's a nice list:
http://bugbear.blackfish.org.uk/~bruno/panorama-tools/


Over the last 1-2 years I've been on and off working on a QTVR
implementation in libquicktime. But it's still not terribly advanced.

There are two demo tools bundled with it.
lqtplay: Can play most simple object movies and cylindrical
panoramas. Although panorama support is bit wonky. I don't quite
understand the transformation required to display those correctly.

lqt_transcode: Can be used to make QTVR files from ordinary
quicktime movies and Avi's. It is again not too useful for
panoramas, though.

I'm more interested in object movies anyway, because my original
intention was to make object movies from Blender. Which works rather
well already using this script:
http://www-e.uni-magdeburg.de/stscheff/camera3.py
Here's an example: http://www-e.uni-magdeburg.de/stscheff/bug.mov

Ah well this degenerated more into pimping my own project.
