Thanks Lehmden, can you tell me what codecs/splitters you are using on your system?

I don't think it has anything to do with the MKV's.
I can play other MKV's just fine, and all the 3D SBS MKV's are failing, but working in VLC. We are talking about 6/7 MKV's I tried to play...

 

[ScRePt]

silly question but ... do the SBS mkvs play by having the plugin disabled? (from the Configuration).
If yes, then it is definately not a plugin problem ...

 

[Lehmden]

Hi.
Can you post the output of "MediaInfoLite" of one or two of the not working sbs mkv? Maybe we can see better what's wrong.
I've installed LAVF Splitter/Codec on Win7 x64 and use Ms-Codec for h264 content (gives a slightly better HDTV experience for me, on other h264 content there is no notable difference)... I'm using Stereoscopic Player 1.7.9 with red-cyan anaglyph output (as I did'nt own a 3D TV jet).

With the plugin disabled: also doesn't play.

Gonna try that LAVF filter now

 

[jerbob92]

Yay! Thanks Lehmden, the LAV filters did help. SBS MKV's work perfectly now!

Hi!

So - after playing around with the Plugin - well - if you have a 3D TV it's rather useless - but one thing makes it cool - the option to play a 3D File in 2D. For now I have to get files in two formats - 3D and 2D to have the option to play them as I want (not always you want to play a file in 3D ...) - so - here is the Question: What about a simple plugin to switch between 3D and 2D?

 

[ScRePt]

You can use this plug-in as follows:
- Source Format: The actual 3d video format, Side by Side for example
- Output Format: Mono Left or Mono Right

For this case you can also create a profile with the Output Format set to Mono always and name it "View in 2D" for example.
I hope this feature is "useful" to you.

Is anyone having good success with Anaglyph glasses. A while back I posted that I had ordered some amber blue glasses from Amazon:

http://www.amazon.co.uk/GLASSES-AMB...JPXU/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&qid=1339011520&sr=8-3

They are copies of the color code system. I was assuming, based on what I have read about the color code system that this would give the best experience. However, I am getting a lost of ghosting. I suspect that the lenses are not quite right. However, the official colour code glasses cost a fortune.

Has anyone had success with either the red/cyan or the green/magenta. If so could you let me know the glasses that you have purchased?

I have just ordered a couple of pairs of these, as I have read very good things about them:

http://www.amazon.com/Glasses-Pro-Ana-movies-Computers/dp/B0036NP3CS/ref=pd_sbs_ba_1

I'll let you know how I get on.

I purchase a couple of pairs of cheap red and blue glasses to give this plugin a go with my none 3D plasma. Although everything works and is stable I am struggling to achieve accurate colours with any of the various output formats.
Should I try a different colour pair of glasses since I can not seem to see any red.
Also I would appreciate recommendations of good quality anaglyph glasses proven to work with this plugin.

 

[Gruby]

Hello together,
This Plugin is working well in Videos an TV-Streams, but I miss it OnlineVideos.
Is it possible to activate it for OnlineVideos, and how can I do that?

It would be greate to be able to show some of the big amount of 3D Videos in e.g. Youtube.
