Re: 3D MVC Option
so i did some half-assed googling, and it looks like it might be possible to order TVs to change into SBS/HTAB mode over HDMI, if im reading this correctly? http://forum.xbmc.org/showthread.php?tid=163475 so i guess you "just" need to find a player which can read the flag from the MKV and ...

Re: 3D MVC Option
i'd have been inclined to keep them as separate files , so that way they can either be identified by filename or file type or storage location, so send MVC to MVC capable players and HSBS/HTAB to players/TVs better suited to those. but i guess aside from keeping track of it all, you'd end up duplica...

Re: 3D MVC Option
actually that makes it MUCH clearer, and im aware that MKV is just a container but MVC IS a codec but you kept on saying you wanted your MVC video to flag whether it was HSBS of HTAB, which is nonsense, because its neither, its MVC... the bit i wasnt clear about was that you wanted BOTH an MVC AND A...

then they said it that was restricted to the full software, and wasnt included in the trail version

Re: 3D MVC Option
I originally really wanted to know if MakeMKV is capable of encoding a MVC MKV with "something" in the metadata/etc that would tell my TV what mode (TAB/SBS) the content was encoded with. This is because I'm creating the content myself and my software (After Effects / Premiere / 3ds Max) ...

Re: 3D MVC Option
OK, lets try this another way You said you wanted the TV to give you the choice between HSBS and HTAB The TV is being supplied with two full 1080p images from the MVC source, via frame packed HDMI The TV screen is two lots of 540p lines, one for each eye, interlaced, and that cannot be changed (beca...

Re: 3D MVC Option
I've got a Masters Degree in Imaging and a PhD in experiential X-Ray Physics, FYI, I can do mathematics :P yes, i entirely get what you are saying about HSBS and HTAB on a passive display but that is not what you are taking about you are talking about when the TV is sent FULL FRAMES from MVC, HSBS a...

Re: 3D MVC Option
there is no reason a TV cannot take 2 full frames and composite HTAB or HSBS from them. the TV isn't compositing either of those from anything, its either displaying active or passive 3D. i think your insistence on misusing the terms HSBS and HTAB is not helping. unless your tv is actually displayi...

Re: 3D MVC Option
From a CNEt article entitled active-3d-vs-passive-3d-whats-better LG claims they show all the resolution in the 1080p signal to each eye temporally. As in, the TV shows the odd lines of resolution on the odd lines of the TV, then flash the even lines of resolution on the odd lines of the TV (and the...

Re: 3D MVC Option
HTAB is BETTER THAN HSBS. It has more resolution. they both contain exactly 2,073,600 pixels? There may only be 540 lines but you're using those 540 vertical lines twice as much with different data, for the same frame. so you want to show the odd lines of the picture on the odd lines of the tv, the...

Re: 3D MVC Option
i totally agree, thats why they are passive, because its a large , cheap, fixed polarising screen, plastered over the front of a bog standard tv, halving the available resolution to each eye
and no insanely high refresh rate will ever change that

Re: 3D MVC Option
and you dont even need to maintain 60fps! with passive you could easily drop lower and its still fine!
