The 3 URLs of a 360 player2022-11-29T13:37:14+01:00

The following 3 URLs are all for the same player.

Export -> Publish will get you get a URL like this:
https://fmbeach-0af93b09-d80e-4824-a917-6ee14d5ce5f4.s3.eu-central-1.amazonaws.com/index.html
Technically this is an Amazon AWS S3 bucket.

When adding a CDN (Content Delivery Network), in case of Amazon that would be CloudFront, you get:
https://d1l4vlab4nh63j.cloudfront.net

Technically this is an Amazon AWS CloudFront instance.

You then can forward a subdomain to it:
https://ian.360camsters.com

Technically this is a subdomain.
With Amazon AWS, Route 53 makes most sense to manage the domain and subdomains.

Dou you have to add CloudFront or a subdomain?
Absolutely not. For most cases the player itself will by fine.

Considerations for CloudFront

  • Very large audience
  • Viewers all over the world (e.g. for tourism)
  • High bandwidth. For a high bandwidth CloudFront it is cheaper than just the player.

Considerations for a subdomain

  • Easier to remember
  • Easier to update the player without disruption.
    Publish a second player and switch the subdomain when done.
  • The underlaying technology can be changed without any changes to the viewer.

I have the Evaluation version of 360 Publisher, but some options are disabled?2023-11-01T16:03:44+01:00

Right. For evaluation not all options are available.

  • There are many opaque DEMO watermarks on the street views.
    You need to re-process your data again with a purchased version to get panorama-tiles without.
    Then republish the player to replace the panorama-tiles with the watermarks.
  • There is a DEMO watermark in the middle of the player.
    You need to enter your own krpano player licence into a purchased version of 360 Publisher.
    Then republish the player to remove it.
  • The krpano player licence is 360camsters and can not be changed.
    With a purchased version you can enter your own krpano licence code.
  • Amazon AWS cloud regions are limited to the Frankfurt region.
    With a purchased version all AWS regions are available to you.
  • All players published by the Evaluation version will be deleted after 4 weeks.
    You need to re-upload your player to your own AWS account after purchasing a licence.
