the XML-initialmotion script:
Hi Aldo!
I made a script for initial motion in my pano as i did sometimes before. Now it crashes Safari and Firefox on my Mac G5.
I´d like to post the scripts or/and upload them somewhere together with the picture to show them here.
I don´t know if that´s a bug or just a fault due my lack of experiences . . . .
best, Klaus

initial motion 3
Hi there!
I refer to my last post/mail and my difficulties to get Spiffy run with a recent made set of images.
Now i pinned down the problem to the "ImageSPIver" i use.
The problem is definitely not in the code - it´s the picture.
I replaced a pictures name in the code with a name of an older picture - and it worked.
When i use a picture i made with "ImageSPIver" actually - all browsers crash.
I tried all possible orientations of filling in the pics into "ImageSPIver" - crashes all the time.
So, what´s the hell is going on? How do i generate a jpg which Spiffy wotks with without using the "ImageSPIver"
best, Klaus

The picture i suspect crashes the browsers is here (don´t worry - it doesn´t crash anything . . ;-) ):

initialmotion 4
everthing´s ok! It was a very, very silly jpg-error . . . (instead of baseline there was 3pass activated - i don´t know who did it . . )
best, Klaus
Re: initialmotion 4
Sorry I could not be of more help.
Yep, unfortunately Shockwave often chokes on progressive jpegs. So its best not to use them.
I have edited your posts to have them in a single topic...
