To all you smart guys out there-
A friend told me that he was using a lifeview tv tuner card and edimensional 3d shutter glasses and he put it into full screen and all of a sudden it was 3D! No special software, nothing that he knows of other than his GeForce2 MX. I went out and bought the lifeview card and used it on my GF2 and I couldn't make it happen. Anyone have any ideas how this could have occurred or a way to make it happen? I'm so curious!

I have seen a similar effect when using ASUS' stereoscopic video player (It was part of the driver package in the old days, and offered a great way of viewing stereoscopic VHS tapes on your computer without flickering).

When I selected the input for the player to be the TV tuner - and not s-video for a stereoscopic tape, it looked stereoscopic too. It is strange, but I believe that the viewer for the TV tuner delays one field, giving a pulfrich type of effect in situations where the camera is moving horizontally in the right direction.

If this is the case, there should be no stereo in images without movement. I can't remember if this was actually the case.

The software for the tuner cards might have different methods of handling the fields in the video, so some might give no effects at all.
