QuickTime VR on iPhone

Hi,

I am a fan of 360 QTVR Panoramas and I would like to enjoy the "virtual reality" also on my new iPhone. Is there a way to watch the QuickTime Panoramas on the iPhone 3G?

Thanks for any help!

iPhone 3G, Mac OS X (10.5.4)

Hi Tropfstein,

Unfortunately QTVR files are unable to be viewed on an iPhone at this time.

I hope this information has been helpful to you.

Unfortunately there is no way to play the Apple invention QTVR on the iPhone or iPodTouch. QTVR is an almost "forgotten" feature in Apple, although very popular on thousands of websites in the world. Popularity is increasing. Interactive panoramas are getting especially more popular since good flashplayers are able to substitute the quicktime player. But again both QTVR and FLASH are NONOs on iPhone up to now.
But the opening of the SDK for the iPhone brought some geniuses on the plan, like Brian Greenstone of Pangea Inc., a known company for "gamers". He developed PangeaVR as free app in the Apple app store.
It is a panorama player with very smooth panning. Have a look on a demo video of an iphone
