Abstract
An arrangement of a panoramic video is obtained by applying navigation commands to said panoramic video. The navigation commands are formed either by navigation commands given at will by the user, or by predefined navigation commands associated with said panoramic video. The choice of the type of navigation command used at a given instant is controlled either automatically or by the user. In this way, it is avoided that a user loses the thread of the action while permitting free navigation through a panoramic video.
