Using Seadragon for iPhone with PhotoZoom
A comment on this blog post recently asked how to access Microsoft Labs PhotoZoom images on Seadragon for iPhone.
I described a solution using the RSS capabilities of Seadragon - but it was still a very manual process.
To allow any PhotoZoom user to view in Seadragon, I've written an RSS feeder that scrapes your album info from PhotoZoom and makes it available in Seadragon RSS format (described in this post).
Use this link http://deepzoompublisher.com/PhotoZoom/rss.aspx?user={yourname} (remember to replace your PhotoZoom name) in Seadragon Add RSS Feed to access your DeepZoom images.
You can also view the code for rss.aspx.
Instructions
- Determine your 'user name' in PhotoZoom
- Verify the RSS XML is generated correctly at
http://deepzoompublisher.com/PhotoZoom/rss.aspx?user={yourname} - On your iPhone, open Seadragon
- Press the [+] button at the bottom-right to add a new item
- Choose RSS Feed
- Enter the URL
http://deepzoompublisher.com/PhotoZoom/rss.aspx?user={yourname}
and press [Done] - Seadragon will load your PhotoZoom images ready for viewing!
