RE: I don't want to use propritory crap.
When I have Kinoma 3 encode movies for me, it spits them out as MP4s. Hardly proprietary.
VR Quicktimes are great and all, but what about MP3s?
RE: I don't want to use propritory crap.
Pretty much every piece of video compression software uses proprietary technology. Unfortunately there are BS software patents on most everything these days. I think DivX (it's DivX not DIVX) is proprietary, they just happen to have an open source player for it.
I don't think the free player you linked to does anything with jpegs.
Good idea
The use of QuickTime VR is a good idea. Good for places that could use Palm units for a self-guided tour. The QuickTime VR image could have labels marked on the image so the viewer can have a legend as to what they're viewing in real life. But without clickable links to extract more information that might be a downside.
Curiousity Poll...
How many people actually use QuickTime and/or RealPlayer (I know Kinoma doesn't support RealPlayer videos, but i added it in for the heck of ti). If so how much?
