Abstract
Various examples are directed to the generating and playback of panoramic videos comprising a plurality of tiles. Each tile may be a video having a tile field-of-view that is a portion of a full field-of-view of the panoramic video. An active field-of-view may be displayed from the first tile, where the active field-of-view is selected from a first tile field-of-view. A translate command may indicate a translate direction for the active field of view. A second tile may be requested. The second tile may have a second tile field-of-view that is adjacent to the first file field-of-view in the translate direction. The active field of view may be translated in the translate direction. When the active field-of-view reaches an edge of the first tile field-of-view, the active field-of-view may be displayed, at least in part, from the second tile.
