I have ripped a number of 3D Blu-Rays to Tranport Stream (AVI wrapper) using DVDFab HD. The files play fine in TriDef (DDD) Media Player with no changes, but Stereoscopic Player does not seem to recognise them as still containing any stereo information. I suspect it's a naming convension issue, or not knowing for sure what 'arrangement' of the two videos (or more correctly the video and video change) that make up TS is; for example, should it be intrepreted as side-by-side? I did contact Stereoscopic Player (I have a licensed version) but Peter has not gotten back to me. Does anyone know either the correct naming convention or the order? |

a little off the path, but I had heard tri-def will be able to read 3D blu-rays out of the box if it can't already. i gave up on it because my one PC crashed and the license only works on one machine (LAME!). No more Tri-Def for me! Besides that, wondering if anyone has gotten cyberlinks 3D player working? Seems like that would be easier than going through all the hoops to get the video converted for stereoscopic player, but so far have only heard negatives about the cyberlink player. |

TriDef can help you with licensing. The present version won't read a Blu-Ray for me. Cyberlink's works, but doesn't support dual projectors (yet). |

yes, with another purchase, tri-def can 'help' with licensing. no thanks...I'm done with them...the last time I updated the software, google earth stopped working and they wanted me to buy another license for that as well. And it's user interface is awful and not exactly user-friendly either. I am sticking with stereoscopic player and my 3D blu-ray player hooked up to the now-ancient DLP 3D TV i bought at the end of 2007. tri-def can SUCK IT. however, I am surprised you got the ripped 3D blu-rays to play through tri-def--i found it's versatility almost non-existent...I guess you must have a newer version...last i knew, it could only open field-sequential, above-below avis and depth map stuff...for me, I was converting blu-ray 3Ds to .mkv streams (left right) and opening the separate files via Stereoscopic Player...didn't think there was a way to do that with tri-def. |

Yes, well I have a licenced version of both Tri-Def and Stereoscopic, and the funny thing is the Stereoscopic will NOT read the TS files as anything other than a single AVI, at least not directly. If I choose side-by-side (which I think is correct; I think the right side is the delta of the left--do you know for sure?) it displays something that looks correct. I'm just not sure. Tri-Def support is not great so far either. It does a 'real-time 2D to 3D' for the PRO version; I wanted to make sure that was OFF so that I was not fooling myself into thinking the TS was being read right if it was not. That interface sometimes shows 'depth' and 'out of screen' but other times only one of the two. I thought perhaps I got only one of the two when it saw a real 3D file. I don't think so. No manual really, so you are guessing. After 3 e-mails I still was not sure, then I found it in an online guide; cntrl F3 I think. The irony is they don't support side-by-side (yet) in a normal stream. BTW, you missed one; they support two seperate files too. All those are by naming convention. Yes, I got the new update; it can now appearantly read a DVD directly (I haven't tried yet, I have quite a few) but still no Blu-Ray direct. } So Peter's program supports far more, but there should be a way to force TS to work correctly. Nor am I alone; Dave Lee (Daveeedaveee) posted the same question on the "Support - report your problems with 3D-products here" board months ago, and I found other references on google as well. I assume you found a way with mkv? Did you have to do anything special? |

I have some rips in M2 TS (MPEG 2 Transport Stream) which for whatever reason only produce crap in VLC but play fine using Power DVD. My advantage is however that my 3D screen can automatically interprete the Side-By-Side image and construct a stereoscopic image out of that without any further software. I assume you want to use Frame Sequential as a display format. Columbus would prolly just have converted the TS files into Side-by-side avi's and played them fine in any playeer, but then again who is Columbus? |
