First I want to thank you for your awesome plugin.

But I have a couple of questions. First is if it's possible to map the menu to a button on my MCE remote. I've tried to use the key pressed action but that does not seem to work, any ideas?

Edit: Sometimes the simplest of solutions is the best. I just pressed buttons i didn´t use in the hotkey area until I found one that worked.

Secondly I have some video files where they have switched to sides so left is right and right i left. So when I play these files everything is screwed up and my head hurts. Unfortunately my TV does not have an option to switch it around. But if I put on the glasses up side down everything is as it should be except that the subs your plugin so nicely renders in 3D now goes into the picture instead of popping out and it's not very comfortable to wear the glasses up side down.

So my questions is would it be possible to add to the plugin the option to switch the video frames? So left becomes right and so on. That way everything should line up right with the subs and the glasses.

I can send you a sample video if that would help :)

Edit: I have my HTPC dedicated for 3D so I usually go to 3D mode when I start MediaPortal and then stay until I´m done but if I try to exit MediaPortal with 3D mode on, MediaPortal hangs.

    @NTM and others:

    There were already some requests for MCE 2005 remotes support. Therefore I decided to do a simple solution, that only works with MCE 2005 remotes.

    Install the latest version of the plugin (also on the first page): Auto3D.mpe1

    Then go to the Auto3D Setup. Set the focus to the TextBox behind "Show selection menu if".
    Now press the desired MCE remote key. Some string like "MCE ...." should appear in the TextBox.

    Exit with OK and start MediaPortal. Now it should be possible to open the Auto3D menu with the choosen MCE 2005 remote key.

    @NTM: Switching left/right is possible. I have this feature in my list and as soon as I have fixed the existing LG support bugs I will take a look at it.

    You're awesome :) The MCE fix works great. Really looking forward to the new version with left/right switching :)

    The TV is recognized, but connection fails:

    Help
    Based on the description this plugin seems to be exactly what I want but I just can't seem to get it to work.
    I'm running MP 1.4 and have installed the latest version, I have been able to link it to my Philips PFL5008 TV but I have yet to see any sign of the 3D selection menu in MP even when I set the "Always show 3D selection menu in MP" where is it supposed to be?. I have tried several Bluray 3D movies including The Hobbit, rips and original disc, they only seem to play in 2D (refresh dynamically switches to is 1080p 24) even if I manually (using TV remote) switch the TV to 3D, it appears the TV simply can't detect it is receiving 3D content, my guess is its not! If I set up PowerDVD11 as an external player I can switch to 3D on its menu which will automatically set the TV to 3D and it plays fine but I have to use the mouse to control PowerDVD which is very much not desirable. I'm probably doing something real dumb so apologies in advance but all help will be much appreciated.
