[QUOTE="Marcus Venturi, post: 1077095, member: 121570"] Your assumptions for SBS are correct, but the resolution in TAB is 540 lines and not only 270. Some time ago, I already answered this question in the german forum: [URL='https://forum.team-mediaportal.com/threads/auto3d-plugin-f%C3%BCr-mediaportal-1-2-1-6-gui-tv-beamer.123788/page-3#post-1053668']Auto3D Plugin für MediaPortal 1.2 - 1.6 (GUI & TV/Beamer)[/URL] So I just translate this: In SBS every picture (left/right) has a resolution of 960x1080 pixels, i.e. a total of 1920x1080. As the TV drops every second line the real resolution for every eye is 960x540 pixels. The TV stretches every half from 960 to 1920 pixels in width (with interpolation), but that doesn't make it better. In TAB every picture (top/bottom) has a resolution of 1920x540 pixels. The TV has no need to stretch the width as it has already the necessary width, and there is no need to drop lines in height as the upper Image is displayed in the odd lines (1, 3, 5 ...), and the lower Image is displayed in the even lines (2, 4, 6 ...) Therefore for todays full HD TVs with passive 3D, TAB is the better choice, as the real resolution per eye is twice as high (compared to SBS). In pratical the difference is not as significant, as the interpolation used in stretching produces very good results. But if you have good eyes, you will notice, that the image in SBS is, compared to TAB, less sharp (but only a bit ;)). An alternative would be to rip every movie in full HD SBS or TAB. Then your movie has either 1920x2160 pixels (TAB) or 3840x1080 Pixels (SBS). In that case you always have the best picture on your current TV Independent from SBS or TAB, and if you later buy a 4K TV you will benefit from the full resolution, as it will display a 3D movie in Full HD resolution (so you don't have to rip your BluRay stuff again). Full HD SBS and TAB is already supported by the Auto3D plugin. (I used DVDFab for my full HD rips) [/QUOTE]
