Create the tours with Panotour Pro with the generic HTML template.

Which one?

I normally use the "simpleWithFullScreen.html" one.
Is there one that will work both for the web and IPod?

You must use Panotour Pro beta 2 or later - I am now using RC2 released yesterday - that offers single 'universal' generic HTML template which works for both Web and idevices with autodetection.

All pano images in the tour must be equirectangular.

Thanks.

Is there an upgrade price from APG?

Can I open my old APT (Giga) files and re-render them to this new xtml?

If you have licences for APG and for krpano then you can obtain a free licence key for Panotour Pro:

Ok thanks much.

Remaining question:

As far as I know you can; despite the new names Panotour and Panotour Pro are developed from the Autopano Tour beta 11 code base.

As I guess you know with the release of V2.5 of Autopano Giga it will no longer be bundled with a vritual tour authoring program; Autopano Tour 'disappears' and instead Panotour and Panotour Pro will be marketed separately.

Roughly speaking Panotour is functionally equivalent to Autopano Tour, and Panotour Pro is functionally equivalent to Autopano Tour plus a krpano licence.

Why not download Panotour Pro RC2 and try it?

Thanks... but very fustrating. It's down loaded and installed... but when I click on "buy" it takes me to a buy page for "other" Kolor products. There is no "Panotour Pro" license option that I can find.

Am I doing something wrong?

There is as yet no way to buy a Panotour or Panotour Pro licence because neither product has yet reached Final Release.

But as I mentioned in an earlier post IF you already have an Autopano Giga licence and a krpano licence then you can obtain a free Panotour Pro licence key by following the procedure described here:
http://www.autopano.net/wiki-en/action/view/FAQ_-_Frequently_Asked_Questions#Criterias_to_get_Panotour.2FPanotour_Pro_.3F

If currently you have an APG licence but do not have a krpano licence then you can purchase a krpano licence (with a special discount for existing APG licence holders, read text for details of promocode) from Kolor and then get the free key for Panotour Pro.

Many Thanks Andrew for the expanded instructions. This whole process only took 5 hours, but it say's I will be getting my APT Pro License... sometime.
