Best way to do QTVR in a Mac?

I have a client that needs a QTVR panoramic picture where his clientes can navegate trought the ambient pictures in his website.

I got myself Nodal Ninja 3 and have been doing some tests with PTGui, PTMac and some other softwares more or less sucessfull.
The problem is, I still haven't found a way to make the QTVR pictures so he can upload to his website for the clients.

What software do I need for this job apart from let's say PTgui?

I'm planing to do 360* horizontal and vertical images. That kind where you can put a circle on the tripod area with your logo, contact and Copyright.

I imagine all I need to do is take a few 360* pictures rounds in different angles, stitch them toghether as spherical and use some software to convert the spheric panoramic image into QTVR. (I will be using a 5D with 16mm on Nodal Ninja)

Can someone give me a tip if I'm on the right track and advice me about QTVR software, please?

Thanks a lot!

You're on the right track

After you create the Equirectangular Projection from PTGui you need to convert it to a QuickTime Cubic VR.

On the VR Tools & Links page are several very affordable programs that do this for PCs and Macs.

I've used Pano2QTVR and it works well but I think its only available for PC

The most popular (and best IMHO) option for the Mac would be CubicConverter

Hello,

I agree with Aldo, Cubic Converter is the way to go ...it is inexspensive and easy to use

To whom it concerns,

using PT Gui on my Mac, I now have the problem that it seems that CUBIC CONVERTER does not work under OS X 10.7?
Any solution to help me. There´s no upgrade to Cubic since years.

have a look at Pano2VR, it does most of what cubic converter did and outputs flash & html5 ipad compatible panoramas too, qtvr is sort of a dead format at this point...
