Opera (WinXP) won't show my SPi-V vr at all after updating to version 11.0.0.0.
I don't think this is an SPi-V problem specifically as Opera(WinXP) is generally a little "quirky" with vr's anyway but, after I updated to Director 11 it won't show the SPi-V at all.
The strip I'm using is probably larger than needed. The flash is now FPP and I had to cut the strip size down from a strip based on 1372 cube to a strip based on a 1360 cube however this didn't help SPi-V in Opera.
Again, I don't think this is a problem that SPi-V can address but, anything is possible so I thought I would report it anyway.

Some strange things are happening indeed.
When I just tried opening a SPi-V panorama using Opera 9.23, the SPi-V.dcr movie did not even download. I proceeded to check my version of Opera, and when I returned to the SPi-V panorama using the back button, the movie loaded fine and the panorama displayed. No problems loading panoramas after that, but Opera has a tendency to crash after closing a Shockwave object. Arg...

(I think the new website upgrade truncated your reply at "after closing a Shockwave object. Arg..." and the link to view comment is "dead")
But I going to assume that you would like to know my Opera "stuff" that I should have included in the first place...

I'm a little brain dead sometimes!
Anyway don't feel bad about SPi-V in Opera... Try Puretools, or FPP in fullscreen and hit any of the links that are to an external url (home, code, info) and at least on my machine Opera just stops functioning altogether and you will need to end the task with task manager. Opera doesn't even have the curtesy to crash and disappear... It just sits there dead as a doornail in fullscreen mode which for the "normal" end user must be quite scary!
