I have a 360 equirectangular video encoded to a variety of resolutions -- 1024x512, 1920x960. The issue is that I'm trying to add an encoded version to the videopano.xml list list that is closer to the original 5K resolution. Whether in IE (MP4) or Chrome (WEBM) on Windows, this larger resolution video refuses to load in KRPano with a "video loading failed" error. The 1024x512 and 1920x960 ones have no problem. I should note that in all cases, this larger resolution video plays fine by itself in the browser(s) and the encoded files seem to be compliant to WEBM and MPEG/ISO spec per level, profile, and all of that.

You can see the offending KRpano at: http://demohub.gemvr.net/DayTimelapse082816/index.html

I have tried multiple resolutions, in this order:
5376x3648
4096x2160
4096x2048
3840x2048
3840x1920
2560x1280

All fail in the same way. Is there a fundamental limitation in KRPano for video resolution? Again, this is NOT the browser, the browser itself can natively play these equirectangular videos just fine.

Any ideas out there?

Ok, here's a little more specific info. The problem seems mostly around webm. Most of my "video loading failed" errors were due to a problem between the keyboard and the chair.

However, I have a solid use case that fails: Google Chrome, I have a 4096x2048 WEBM that plays fine in the browser, here:

http://demohub.gemvr.net/DayTimelapse082…-4096x2048.webm


however, when switching to 4096x2048 reslution in krpano player from here: http://demohub.gemvr.net/DayTimelapse082…l=videopano.xml

I get "Error: video-4096x2048.webm - network loading error".

These are the contents of the videopano.xml:

<krpano>



<action name="startup" autorun="onstart">
if(device.panovideosupport == false, error('Sorry, but panoramic videos are not supported by your current browser!'); , loadscene(videopano); );

</action>
</scene></krpano>
any advice is appreciated.

Also, did the same thing with 2560x1280. Webm file is available here:

http://demohub.gemvr.net/DayTimelapse082…-2560x1280.webm


When attempting to change resolution in KRpano, I get the "network" error again, same as 4096x2048.

Thanks,
