I did look at imagemagick! I love that tool. What you get is a real 360 photo, but it's just made of the raw images taken from the camera so the edges are plainly visible instead of being stitched out. I should find out exactly the metadata required and add all that explicitly, but copying the metadata over in bulk is easier for now.Įxiftool -TagsFromFile /tmp/INSTA360_STUDIO_EXPORT.jpg "-all:all>all:all" out.pngĪfter doing that, you'll see that out.png now has exifdata like "ProjectionType": "equirectangular"Īnd now I can upload my out.png file to gphoto and it'll show it as a 360 photo! Sorta.now the issue is that the vrProjector conversion doesn't do any of the fancy stitching that Insta360 studio does. This is because vrProjectorCmd just does the projection conversion and it doesn't mark the output file with all the exif metadata needed to tell Google Photos/whatever that it's a 360 file. png as the output since the input image contains an transparency channel which jpg doesn't support.Ĭopy the exif metadata from any Insta360 jpg export to this new out.png file. Use the vrProjector project available here: (Facebook's 360 website mentions this tool)Ĭonvert insta360's FishEye projection to Equirectangular:


Ok, well I found a shitty half-working solution:
