You can also link or embed any photos you upload to theta360.com. They will be displayed in a 3d viewer similar to the theta desktop app.
As for youtube, they have rudimentary support for 360-degree videos, but this is only works in Chrome at the moment and requires you to run each video file through a special metadata program provided by Google.
More info on all this can be found here:
Ricoh Theta m15 Review - Introduction | PentaxForums.com Reviews I didn't have to use any Google program. I simply converted the video via the Theta desktop app and uploaded to YouTube.
Let's see if this works:
If you are using Chrome and watching on YouTube you should be able to pan around the image. If you are watching the video embedded here on PentaxForums.com or on YouTube via others browsers will likely display a funhouse distortion of the video
EDIT: Here's another sample in bright light
As you can see, the IQ is better but still crap. The video codec just doesn't seem capable of handling movement all that well.
