FAQs

What is the native 3D format of the Samsung and Mitsubishi "3D Ready" DLP HDTVs? The 3D-DLP displays accept 3D information in a special checkerboard pattern format at the native resolution of the display. More information is available in these two white papers from Texas Instruments: DLP® 3-D HDTV Technology, and Introducing DLP® 3-D TV.

What sort of 3D content can I view on these 3D displays?
(i) Stereoscopic Games - over 1000 consumer PC games can be played in stereoscopic 3D using drivers from either NVIDIA, DDD or iZ3D.
(ii) Stereoscopic 3D DVDs - a large selection of field-sequential 3D DVDs is listed here: Illustrated 3D Movie List and 3D DVD list. See below for how to view them in 3D on these 3D HDTVs.
(iii) Stereoscopic 3D photographs shot with a stereoscopic 3D camera. See the SDM 3D Camera List for more information.
NB: There has been some talk of conversion of regular 2D content to 3D in real-time, however in my experience this rarely produces images as visually pleasing as real stereoscopic 3D content.

Can I watch field-sequential 3D DVDs or Sensio 3D DVDs on these 3D Displays? Yes, but not using a regular DVD player. You'll need a device to convert from the field-sequential 3D format (as used on many 3D DVDs) to the display's native 3D format. At the present time the easiest way to do this is using a PC and 3D compatible software (e.g. Stereoscopic Player, DepthQ player, or DDD Tridef Media Player).

What is the "3D Sync" connector on some of these 3D-HDTVs? The "3D Sync" connector is an industry standard 3-pin mini-DIN connector which provides a TTL toggle signal (high = one eye, low = other eye), power and ground. The connector and signals are summarised here: www.stereoscopic.org/standard/connect.html

How do I enable 3D mode on the Samsung "3D-Ready" DLP and "3D-Ready" Plasma HDTVs?
(i) Plug a device which creates checkerboard pattern (at the native resolution of the display) into the "HDMI 3" input on the 3D-HDTV (this may be a different numbered socket on some displays - check the manual). For the moment, this device will likely be a PC with a DVI video card, a DVI to HDMI cable, and appropriate 3D software.
(ii) Plug a pair of LCS 3D glasses which support the VESA 3-pin mini-DIN connector into the "3D-Sync" connector on the 3D-HDTV. One example of such a pair of glasses is this one: Wireless 3D Gaming Glasses
(iii) switch the display to "HDMI 3" (by pressing the source button) (this may be a different numbered socket on some displays - check the manual), and then press the "3D" button on the remote.

Why aren't there many autostereoscopic displays listed here?
Although there are a selection of autostereoscopic displays commercially available, the current price of most of these displays makes them only an industrial product and not a consumer product.
