I have just subscribed to this list, because I have a problem and I do
not know how to solve it. I have posted my question on the QT
discussion board at the apple site and they have directed me here. So,
here I go again:
I desperately try to author a QTVR object movie, that is supposed to
be bound into a website later. The source footage is a 3D render of a
solar panel and 2000x2000 pixels in size. I want it later to be
displayed at 500x500 pixels in the browser to be able to zoom in 4
times for highres details.
I run into a couple of issues.
First is, there does not seem to be any reasonable authoring tool
available... the Apple tools are "legacy" and only work under OS9.
There are only two as far as I have found commercial OSX applications
that can do this, but they are quit expensive.
OK, ond an old G5 with classic I have added navigable data to the
movie, and it works as expected. So far so good. Now, how can I shrink
the movie to 1/4 of its size? I tried the display settings in
Quicktime player, but no go. I get all kinds of weird results.
I have tried iWeb and placed the movie with 500x500 pixels on a
website, which you can see here:
When the movie is loaded, it shows the small posterframe in the upper
right, and than loads. But only on my MAC. In Windows it just displays
at 2000x2000 pixels, but cropped to the upper left corner in 500x500
pxls. which is not acceptable.
My assumption is, that there is no real support for QTVR objectmovies
in quicktime anymore, and the old code has never been updated or
tested neither on Mac nor on Windows. I can also not find any
documentation about this on the web.
If this is correct, I would appreciate some hints for an alternative
solution to this problem.
Thanks
Jens
