360 Video Scene menu

Hi,

I'm relatively new to krpano, so please excuse me if my question seems a little basic.

I'm trying to create a tour with multiple 360 video scenes. I'd like to create a scene menu similar to this example from the examples page

http://krpano.com/examples/119/krpano.ht…-corfu/tour.xml.

My default video is housed in an external xml file. Do I need to create a separate xml for each 360 video and call it with an action from my interface.xml page?

Thanks in advance (I hope I made sense)

Hi,

the answer is no ;-)
You can just use scenes.

example:

Source code

 
1
2
3
4
5
6

<scene name="scene_1" title="heli"  onstart="ChangeVideoScene(heli);" >
	<view hlookat="0" vlookat="0" fov="90" fovmin="60" fovmax="110" limitview="on" />
		<image>
		  <sphere url="plugin:video" />
    </image>
</scene>


and also for example

Source code

 
1
2
3
4
5
6

<action name="ChangeVideoScene" devices="desktop"> 
		
		set(plugin[video].posterurl, calc:'video/%1-2k-poster.jpg');
		plugin[video].playvideo(video/%1-2k.mp4|video/%1-2k.webm);
		
</action>


i use a strict protocol in naming the videos like:
heli-1k.mp4
heli-1k-poster.jpg
heli-2k.mp4 etc etc

So the ChangeVideoScene action can work.

Now, just call a scene. no need to stop or pause the video player.

Hope it helps!

Hi Tuur,

Thanks so much for your help. I really appreciate it!

One thing, though. when I implement the second example code, I receive an error when I click the many option for the second scene;


INFO: krpano 1.18.5 (build 2015-08-04)
INFO: HTML5/Desktop - Safari 9.1 - WebGL
ERROR: loading of calc:'video/null-2k-poster.jpg' failed!
ERROR: video/null-2k.mp4 - loading video failed!

I receive the same error when I use the full file name and root, too.


Source code

 
1
2

<action name="videointerface_avenue_view">	 set(plugin[video].posterurl, calc:'video/union-2k-poster.jpg');	 plugin[video].playvideo(video/union-2k.mp4|video/union-2k.webm);	
	 </action>



I'm using a tour skin video interface template. I'm trying to link between scenes from the select view menu from the interface bar. Am I totally in the wrong direction?

Many thanks, again,

Ronandl

Hi,

please put the %1 's back in the ChangeVideoScene action.
Those will be replaced by the first 'argument' between the brackets from the ChangeVideoScene(); call
In this case that should be 'union'.

Call ChangeVideoScene(union); in the onstart of the scene.
In the ChangeVideoScene action the %1 will be automatically replaced with union.
With another scene you can call another video like: ChangeVideoScene(anothervideoname);

( http://www.krpano.com/forum/wbb/index.ph…d&threadID=2677 )

and then just use loadscene.
I find it very convenient.

**
In your example you made a mistake.. because there is nothing to calc.
So your line should be:

set(plugin[video].posterurl, video/union-2k-poster.jpg);
But then you need to call just videointerface_avenue_view(); in the onstart of the scene.
Then it should work, when the video is in the video folder / the path is ok.


Hope it helps!

Tuur *thumbsup*

http://krpano.com/examples/119/krpano.ht…-corfu/tour.xml.
PanoVideo Creator allows to create this menu in video tours. Simply select option"include preview navigation"
As well as it allows to create html-style menu navigation. And many other functions.
You can see how it works in this video

Problem loading multiple video scenes in WebVR example on IOS

Hi Tuur;

I'm having a similar problem loading multiple video scenes into a WebVR example.

A version of my code is here:
http://www.moreyummy.com/wp-content/test/examples/webvr/


Works fine on desktops, but the video won't load new "Panoramic Video" scenes on iOS. I suspect this is because I can't seem to set the variables 'videourl.ios' and 'videourl.no-ios' in the "video" plugin. But honestly, I'm not sure.

The XML file is here:
http://www.moreyummy.com/wp-content/test…r/krpano_vr.xml

Here's a code sample for the two thumbnails calling the videos ...

Source code

 
1

	<scene name="video_scene" title=""  onstart="ChangeVideoScene(video);" >		<view hlookat="0" vlookat="0" fov="90" fovmin="60" fovmax="110" limitview="on" />		<image>		  <sphere url="plugin:video" />    	</image>	</scene>			<scene name="video_scene2" title=""  onstart="ChangeVideoScene(video-orig);" >		<view hlookat="0" vlookat="0" fov="90" fovmin="60" fovmax="110" limitview="on" />		<image>		  <sphere url="plugin:video" />    	</image>	</scene>		<action name="ChangeVideoScene" devices="desktop"> 				set(plugin[video].videourl.no-ios, calc:examples/webvr/%1/video-1920x960.mp4|%1/video-1920x960.webm);		set(plugin[video].videourl.ios, calc:examples/webvr/%1/video-1024x512.mp4);		plugin[video].playvideo(examples/webvr/%1/video-1920x960.mp4|examples/webvr/%1/video-1920x960.webm, examples/webvr/%1/video-1024x512.mp4);			</action>



I'd appreciate it if someone might know what's going wrong on iOS.

Thank you.

Hi!
Use PanoVideo Creator Extended or pro version. It allows to do it.
Exsample here: http://www.tcreator.classic-ru.org/example/videotour/ind.htm
