  1. I just downloaded a Half-SBS 2 min sample to test my Computer Performance. I kept getting a Gray Screen, and at moments some frames appeared. Does that mean the current PC cant decode this correctly?



    Also what's the difference between the various color lenses of cheap glasses? There seems to be a wide variation. I'm thinking of choosing onefrom these.

    The different glasses are for systems that separate the left and right pictures using those different colors. Some use red and green, some use red and cyan (green+blue), etc. From what I've seen red/cyan are the most popular. Buy the glasses that are appropriate for the player you'll be using. Red/cyan glasses will work with red/green or red/blue displays.

    Beyond that, the quality of the color filters vary. Bad filters allow a little of the opposite eye's image through. For example, with a red/cyan system a little of the cyan image may bleed through the red filter. That will cause a little ghosting of the right (cyan) image in the left (red) eye.

    If you have a local comic book store they might give you a pair anaglyph glasses for free. Or you can just buy a 3d comic book that comes with glasses.

  3. Ok noted. As for the video i uploaded above, this must be some kind of weird codec issue. I confirmed it by running the mkv file on MPC and it run just fine. But in Stereoscopic player i get the result above, so until i solve this i cant get to switch to anaglyph from SBS source.

  4. Can you provide a link to the video?

  5. Thanks. My first download crapped out but from the partial download I can see the video is an MKV with AVC/AAC and side-by-side left/right images. I guess your stereoscopic player just can't handle that format.

    The following AviSynth script will convert that to a color anaglyph for red/cyan glasses:

    DirectShowSource("Loony Tunes Fur of Flying 3D Half-SBS.mkv")
    ConvertToRGB()

    left=Crop(0,0,960,-0)
    right=Crop(960,0,960,-0)

    r=ShowRed(left)
    g=ShowGreen(right)
    b=ShowBlue(right)

    MergeRGB(r,g,b)

    BilinearResize(960,540)
