TTG MediaBox Index 1.2 is now available, updating the MediaBox javascript to 0.6.5 (improvements for IE7 and Windows-based browsers, QT fixes for Safari and Opera, and more).

Florian Bertzbach has also posted a short tutorial on how to use TTG MediaBox Index in conjunction with Pleinpot and/or Pan2VR to generate interactive panorama galleries.

Cheers,

The link says version 1.2, but the site says 1.1. Which end is wrong?

1.2 is correct. I had to restore a slightly older version of my database and forgot to update the page afterwards. The gallery archive is still 1.2, though, so you shouldn’t have to download it again; just the page was wrong. Sorry for the confusion. It’s fixed now.

MediaBox is still beta and has a few known issues with IE7. Probably few options other than to wait and hope it improves. Have you tried using TTG Greybox Index instead? I’m not sure whether you’ll get better results or not.

The panos look great, though. ;)

quick time and greybox didn’t work. same problem.

i tried using a flash pano embedded in a html page created with qtvr2pano and seems to work.

Really GREAT shots David!!!! The loading is based on file size, obviously the smaller the file the quicker it loads. Also the gallery loads the images starting from the first one and then all the others. So technically the first one should load first.

hmmm… when i load your example page

http://www.lightroomgalleries.com/gallerysamples/LRGFlashSlideStripPayPal/

or my page

http://davidsikmaphotography.com/

the images furthest to the right appears first. then it continues loading images from right to left. or at least that’s what I’m seeing.

wouldn’t it make more sense to load them from left to right? so if someone had a large gallery it wouldn’t take forever for the viewer to see the first image? maybe there is a way to change this that I’m not aware of….

thanks for your help and comments:) this is an excellent gallery btw!
