I converted my mpo's to l&r images and manually sticthed them together in sbs style. Huge pita. Viewable on the Rift with Whirligig. I haven't tried viewing any with the go yet, and still have no way of viewing or converting mpo style videos (taken w/ a Fugi W3).

Theoretically you could put them on a web page and then view them from there using the browser. My #1 complaint so far is the inability to resize the browser. I know there is a s-m-L choice, but large is at best x by 720. Which is inadequate. I bought a 1440 viewer.
Note ... YouTube full screen enlarges the image to almost full screen in the Go, larger than the original browser.

Ok the process I've found is ... On the pc use MPO Master to convert the mpo images to sbs style. Copy the images to the Go in Pictures Use Samsung VR app to view them in 3d.

I don't know MPO Master's options and limitations, but StereoPhoto Maker has the option to batch process between arbitrary formats, including MPO to half-width side-by-side JPEG.
Stereo Photo Maker can batch convert MPO files into SBS jpegs. Viewing them on the GO is another issue. Another post says Samsung VR can see them in 3D. I tried SkyBox, Moon VR, Plex and Gallery with no success.
Ah so I was upset because I thought a recent GO update had broken 3D1 picture viewing via the library but now I see that you have to use the Samsung VR app !
I bought Pigasus with the "oculus30" discount deal, and I am very pleased.
Yup, it shows my mpo files perfectly. Finally, I get to experience my 3D pictures properly (I tried Google Cardboard viewing apps on phone but it just didn't work so well). The Pigasus app, once you set the inter-pupillary distance to suit, really makes the pictures "pop".I'll curate the best of my mpo files and put them somewhere for people to grab.
In fact, this has inspired me to get the lens from deep inside the kit bag and take some more, it's been languishing for years! Am still sad you can't do movies. I supposed I could do stop motion photography.

I have to resample hundreds of images to 50% horizontal now, but it will take up half the memory.
