HD VIEW ERROR "hr=0x80004005"

Question
-
The panoramas were made in ICE last version (got the HD View Plugin last version too), and stored as .jpg in a Microsoft Skydrive count. I used the embed code of the "Scenario 2" of the embed instructions (http://research.microsoft.com/en-us/um/redmond/groups/IVM/HDView/HDEmbed.htm), as they are .jpg as mine. I'm embeding the HD View code in a Blogger blog. And I only get and "HD VIEW ERROR "hr=0x80004005". I've tried several panoramas I get the same error.
This is an example of the code I'm ussing:
<iframe style='width: 600px; height: 240px; margin: 0' frameborder='0' scrolling='no'
src='http://research.microsoft.com/en-us/um/redmond/groups/IVM/HDViewSL/HDIFrame.htm?
FileName=https://skydrive.live.com/embedphoto.aspx/Panoramicas/Torcal%20Antequera%2016
%20oct%202011/Panorama%2003.jpg&Viewer=0'> </iframe>Is the embed code correct? Am I making any other mistake?

That Skydrive link in your post:
doesn't point to a .jpg, it points to a slide show. Click on the image there and it takes you to:
https://skydrive.live.com/?cid=883c23492f38ee2c&id=883C23492F38EE2C%21213&sff=1
Then in the right hand column click "View original". That's the .jpg:
Put that in your original <iframe> and it should work (it does for me). Those "livefilestore" links are also what they use on the site you cited (http://despuesdelclick.blogspot.com/search/label/Panoramas%20HD)

I'm not sure of what part of the Skydrive embed code do I have to copy-paste in the HDView embed code (why is all this so complicated?!!). This is one example of the embed code of one panorama's .jpg hosted in Skydrive:
<iframe title ="Preview" scrolling="no" marginheight="0" marginwidth="0" frameborder="0" style="width:320px;height:116px;padding:0;background-color:#fcfcfc;" src="https://skydrive.live.com/embedphoto.aspx/Panoramicas/Torcal%20Antequera%2016%20oct%202011/Panorama%2001.jpg?cid=883c23492f38ee2c&sc=photos"> </ iframe>
Which part of this Skydrive code do I need to copy-paste in the HDView code to make the panorama work properly?
In the "Scenario2" example at http://research.microsoft.com/en-us/um/redmond/groups/IVM/HDView/HDEmbed.htm, the Flickr "image code" ends in "[...].jpeg", but in the Skydrive code after the .jpg comes this "...cid=883c23492f38ee2c&sc=photos" that I don't know if is useful or not. Anyway, I've tried coping both possibilities: "https://skydrive.live.com/embedphoto.aspx/Panoramicas/Torcal%20Antequera%2016%20oct%202011/Panorama%2001.jpg" and "https://skydrive.live.com/embedphoto.aspx/Panoramicas/Torcal%20Antequera%2016%20oct%202011/Panorama%2001.jpg?cid=883c23492f38ee2c&sc=photos" and NONE of this 2 combinations works, they gave me the same error.
Someone help me, please, all this is so frustating! (skydrive code, HDView code...)

The solution that we suggest to people who don't have a lot of experience with web servers is to upload your panorama to Photosynth. You push the "Publish to Web" button in Microsoft ICE - that's it - not complicated.
Skydrive is not going to work in this scenario. It automatically generates urls for each tile in your HDView image data. HDView relies on the tiles keeping their original names. This simply is not how services like Skydrive or Dropbox work. If you want to create your own HDView web site you need to have access to a web server.

I've used the "HDView+Skydrive" combination MANY times in the pass, as you can see in the "Panoramas HD" entry's label of my blog:
http://despuesdelclick.blogspot.com/search/label/Panoramas%20HD
All of my "Panoramas HD" we're hosted in Skydrive and embeded with the HDView Code. The last entry in which I used this combination was date on september 2010. What is more, this old panoramas STILL work today, so this combination WORKED in the past, my answers is: Why not now? Has change the Skydrive code, the HDview code?
Anyway, the "Photosync" option is not suitable either. I have to make some Photoshop retouch's to the panoramas (hight lights, dark shadows, contrast...), and include my watermark on it. So I use Microsoft ICE to build the panorama, but I need to "finish" then in Photoshop. Then, I used to upload the final .jpg to Skydrive. Maybe I need to find a free web storage service that provides me a direct link to the .jpg that work in the HDView code.

For Photoshop users, I recommend the Photosynth export plugin for Photoshop: http://hdview.wordpress.com/2010/11/26/panorama-uploads-from-photoshop/
If you want HDView to load a jpg from anywhere on the web (including skydrive) then your jpeg URL needs to work. In the examples above https://skydrive.live.com/embedphoto.aspx/Panoramicas/Torcal%20Antequera%2016%20oct%202011/Panorama%2001.jpg is not a valid URL. Here is an example skydrive URL for a jpeg https://skydrive.live.com/?cid=6057AF35147552B9&id=6057AF35147552B9%21218 Note that HDView loading a large jpeg from the web is only supported on Windows. So, unlike Photosynth which works across platforms, your solution will only work on Windows.

That Skydrive link in your post:
doesn't point to a .jpg, it points to a slide show. Click on the image there and it takes you to:
https://skydrive.live.com/?cid=883c23492f38ee2c&id=883C23492F38EE2C%21213&sff=1
Then in the right hand column click "View original". That's the .jpg:
Put that in your original <iframe> and it should work (it does for me). Those "livefilestore" links are also what they use on the site you cited (http://despuesdelclick.blogspot.com/search/label/Panoramas%20HD)

YES!! IT WORKS!! Thank you so much!! I knew it has to work, I'd done in the pass but didn't wrote it down to remember the method. Now I remember that (time ago) I discovered my self this "View Original" trick to get the correct .jpg url.
Once again, Thank you Howard Good.
