Multiple Scenes but with 360° Videos instead of Panoramas

[Oliver Statt]

Hallo,

I want to do a virtual tour with multiple scenes while each scene is a 360° and not just a panorama picture. 

I saw in the Demos that a virtual tour is possible with Marzipano and a 360° video is also possible. 

Is it possible to combine both to have a tour consisting out of several 360° videos? If yes how can I implement it?

Thanks for any help

It is possible, but some coding is required.

Have a look at the video demo, which contains the bare minimum necessary to set up a single video scene. With multiple scenes, you additionally need to start the video playback only when you enter a scene, and pause/stop it when you leave the scene.

Thank you for your answer. The Problem is when i switch to another scene, i cannot move / look around in the video anymore. Switching scenes with videos unfortunatly doesnt work so easily. 

 

It works when i use the  viewer.destroyScene(scene); and destroy the old scene before i switch to the new scene. And if I return back to the scene I initiate it new. But with multiple videos I get performance issues then. Everything gets very slow when I switch between video scenes multiple times. Any idea how i can fix that? If I reload the page everything runs smoothly again in the beginning.

Thanks,

Oliver

Can you try commenting out the VideoAsset#destroy method? (The method must exist, but make it an empty function body.)

The problem is that VideoAsset#destroy is called when the respective scene goes out of view, and it tears down the logic that causes the video texture to be refreshed on every frame.

I would make absolutely sure that a single video is playing at any given time.
