Cheers - Noddy


Originally, it was this what lead me to believe it was possible. The motion tracking tracks objects very well, but doesn't dictate the camera angle. Surprising, as the term suggests otherwise..
Quote Sorry, no ideas.
The viewing angle of a 360° clip is not keyframeable. PowerDirector only allows to set the starting angle. So what you need, is not possible with PowerDirector. I don't know any other program, that can do that. Maybe the next version...
The only thing that you can try is stabilizing. PowerDirector seems to be so far the only program that can stabilize a 360° video. But stabilizing childrens hands...

Thanks Hatti, that's really surprising to me. Perhaps instead I could convert to standard wide-screen and pan across to various areas instead. Thanks for putting me out of my misery though!
My terminology will be well off here, but to explain:

I have many Ricoh Theta movies but many are taken by my young children, meaning the filming angles are far from optimal (but the content is absolute gold!). To view these clips is a vomit inducing experience..

My intention is to set a viewing angle by selecting an object or person, allowing the screen (still in 360 format) to follow the object as if it was the natural filming position.

I have toyed with the Object Tracking function believing it would solve my problem but only seems to allow for adding media and tags; but it doesn't seem unreasonable with that function's abilities, that what I want should be possible.

Any ideas?
