Support for the new Google Panosphere format in PTGui

[Thomas Krueger]

Hi Joost,

Photosphere from Android 4.2 works with jpg in equirectangular format and some special exif xmp tags inside. Uploading such a file to Picasa it will be displayed in a spherical viewer. Is it possible to add this format as an export option?

Panosphere album on Picasa: https://plus.google.com/u/0/photos/110023707389740934545/albums/5808606988734372865

Check the discussion about Photosphere on Facebook in Panoramic Photographers, Geoff Mather posted the exported xmp snipplet:

You can always use EXIFToolGUI to edit your files and add tags.
