wwp@yahoogroups.com: Re: Audio Recap Romuald/hd 2005-Mar-21 18:19:00
Hello all,

I know that qtvr is multimedia and that sound ehances the immersive feeling but
I suggest to add it only on the fullscreen page.
Or at least try to keep the size of the small pano page, including audio track,
into the limit.
For rtc users, thanks ;-)
