Depends on what you mean. If you mean something based on pano12.dll,
yup -- both hugin (for the stitching) and pano2qtvr (for remapping from
equirect -> 6-faces for touchup, and final compositing into a qtvr file)
use that.
If you mean something else, then no.

Oh, no, it's definitely a manual feature; check out the floor on the
internal ones, there's text there and stuff. It's a fairly common way to
cover up tripod legs -- I do handheld shots, thus the lesser sharpness etc.

Yup, you can set min/max/initial fov, and the size that the "movie"
displays at. You may well be able to do a lot more, I've generally just
used the basics. (fspviewer / ptviewer.jar have a different set of
options, but require java rathre than quicktime. There's also a flash
viewer, but support for that requires the for-money verion of pano2qtvr
rather than the free edition).
