Hi,
I'm looking into that. Caroling also earlier reported an error with a similar message, as did Bostjan.
There are interestingly two different reasons for this error.
The error that happened on your contribution was most likely because the uploaded image was not processed yet, as right now I can preview the page without error message (both with Quicktime and Flash). There is usually a "zero to 20" minute delay after uploading because the conversion is run by a timer.
The errors Caroling and Bostjan were seeing happened due to some panoramas prior to 12/2008 not being compatible with krpano. The system has a list of those, and *should* have forced the use of the Quicktime plugin instead of the flash plugin. When I last updated the javascript, that mode was accidentally disabled, and I missed the problem because the test cases I used didn't have that special set of circumstances.
I have updated the regular server with a fix for this behavior, but I still need to back-port that code to the preparation server.
Any other strange behaviors or error messages? Send a note, and I'll look into it.
-Markus
P.S.: to Caroling: The update also fixed your "Duo-Tet" Object's strange behavior between Flash and Quicktime display, which was caused by the same "not switching to QT when it's the only option" bug. Sorry I took so long to find a fix. :-(
