1. A computer-implemented method for displaying a panoramic video, the method comprising:
- displaying an interface for viewing the panoramic video, wherein the interface comprises a focus region and a thumbnail region;
displaying at the focus region an active field-of-view selected from a full field-of-view of the panoramic video; and
displaying at the thumbnail region a thumbnail version of the panoramic video having a thumbnail field-of-view equivalent to the full field-of-view of the panoramic video, wherein a distribution of color saturation levels of the thumbnail version indicates a distribution of fields-of-view selectable from the full field-of-view, and wherein the distribution of fields-of-view selectable from the full field-of-view comprises a first field-of-view selected from the full field-of-view during a previous display of the panoramic video.

Abstract
Various examples are directed to displaying a panoramic video at an interface comprising a focus region and a thumbnail region. The focus region may display an active field-of-view of the panoramic video, where the active field-of-view is a portion selected from the full field-of-view of the panoramic video. The thumbnail region may display a thumbnail version of the panoramic video comprising a thumbnail field-of-view that is equivalent to the full field-of-view. A distribution of color saturation levels of the thumbnail version may indicates a distribution of fields-of-view selectable from the full field-of-view.
