Hi,

I'm trying out Pano2vr v2.0 beta1b on Mac OSX 10.4.9 and I'm trying to create a droplet for remapping movies to cylinder type thumbnails.

I want to use it to batch create thumbnails from a whole load of existing movies. Creating the droplet from a blank project file is easy enough but the problem I have is with the output file name.

I'm using the default "$n_out" as the output name which I assumed will be replaced with each existing movie name upon creation of the thumbnail however it doesn't work. The first thumbnail is created with the name "$n_out.tif" but then so is each subsequent output and each one also overwrites the first without any warning. So if I throw a bunch of movies at the droplet all I get is one thumbnail!

Is this a bug or am I missing something?

Edit: I've also tried "$f" as mentioned elsewhere on the forum from the older version of Pano2QTVR

Cheers,
Steve

Thomas,

Thanks for confirming that :)

Can I also ask you, if I were to upgrade now from Pano2QTVR pro Flashpack to this new version would I still be eligible for any upgrade price you offer for your new object movie application when available?

Cheers,
Steve
