Is it possible to use this camera, shoot a video, and then playing it in a oculus or htc vive (after cutting and editing it and so on) ? Or does oculus and htc vive require special cameras ?

Can I simply take the 360 images out of the camera and load them into Unity to build an app - or do I need to always use the "Gear 360 Action Director" software?

@rmohindra84 7 жыл бұрын

Have you found a way to record through one lens only but still get that immersive feeling as with recording with both lenses and viewing through GearVR? I understand you wont have full 360 degrees of view but I'm only looking for 180 degrees of view. Currently when recording with one lens and view through GearVR, it's like it was done with a regular camera.

Hi Android Authority! Thanks so much for the detailed video! I do have a question: If I were to mount the Gear 360 in my car and plug it into a portable power source, could I use it overnight in a "Parking Mode" fashion? I've had recent run-ins with vandals on my car and would like to use this as a security measure. Thanks for your time and help!

Just to clarify, it is not necessary to have a samsung phone in order to use the 360 camera, right? I'm planning on recording videos but will use a 200gb micro sd card which will then go into my computer.

KZfaq still has to figure out best 360 compression - so, even though you'll see your 360 raw footage in crystal clear HD once uploaded it will be degraded. However - no complaints yet on how cool this concept is and have fun shooting

Try doubling the resolution before uploading to KZfaq. Secret trick

I'm still a little confused. I'm trying to understand how I can use this the way I need it. I want to make a 360 video of a Japan trip I'm going on soon. but I would need this to continuously record until the SD card is full and then I would just replace it and continue the process and the same thing with the battery. So how could I use something like this and that application? because you need a phone to make it work properly?

@Henry_Jr_Watsson 7 жыл бұрын

With a phone you can easily change it's settings (or use the buttons on the Gear 360). After that, just hit record and that's all there is to it. Switch your micro sd cards whenever it gets near to full and that's all. Just make sure to bring an micro-sd card carrying box with you.
