Re: 3D movies not working

OK, thanks. I presumed wrongly that the Apple TV would simply stream whatever you asked it to. Given the handful of 3D movies I would watch more than once, I doubt I'll be buying a separate player just for them. Cheaper to just buy the disks!

Re: 3D movies not working

I've tried selecting the 3d version, but the MKV produced is still only in 2D. I've also tried adding the string in advance mode that VAMET suggested, and again the resulting MKV is still in 2D.

3D movies not working

Thanks for a great program, BTW.

Not specifically. Never had this type of problem before. The disk plays fine (it was brand new), but as I said when playing back the AVI file lots of macro-blocking throughout. Surely this must be a protection issue?
