The AV-series glasses are capable of displaying 3D content like 3D DVD's. This "standard" 3D technology uses interlacing filtering (even and non-even lines filtering) to seperate the left and right images. On PAL systems (Europe) there are 625 lines (576 visible) at 50 HZ, on NTSC systems (America) 525 lines (486 visible) at 60 HZ. Half of them make an (left or right) image.

Connecting your AVxxx glasses to a PC (using S-video or composite) won't work out of the box for 3D content since your PC uses totally different resolutions (800x600 e.g.). The eDimensional drivers, available at http://www.edimensional.com/support_updates.php, do however create very nice interlaced 3D content. Best of all, they even work under Windows Vista (the Nvidia drivers won't if they don't detect any special hardware like the VR920 glasses). There is more software available for creating interlaced content. Have a look at:

http://stereo.jpn.org/eng/

The "StereoMovie Maker" really works very well for creating your own stereo movies. Try it out with some standard anaglyph 3D glasses! Sample movies can be found on the same website.

However, back to the problem... Ok you've created a 3D movie. Viewing it on a PC with VR920 glasses won't be a problem. But how to view them with the AV920 glasses on your PC, iPod or TV? Is there any way to create a DVD for your DVD player? Any solutions?

Best regards,

I should note that I'll receive the (AV920) glasses this week, so nothing tested yet...

Received the glasses. 3D seems to work very well from the iPhone! :-) Just use 480 vertical lines for NTSC (640x480 for example). When converting movies make sure to disable all interlaced filters...

Hi PieterMX,
could you please elaborate a bit as I did not succeed myself. Which tools and params did you use?

Best regards
Renaud
