Headplay and Bluray3D?
Posted: Wed Mar 09, 2011 3:32 am
I was proposed to ask here for my problem, so i hope it is not discussed yet, because i don't find the thread about it.
So ive bought a new Headplay, and now i try to figure out its capabilities.
I understood from what ive read here, that using the 3D-gaming feature is only possible under WinXP, and then its only easy with a Geforce 7000 series, so no 3d-gaming with my GF280 win7 desktop-PC. Lucky me ive got an old laptop with a GF7600 and enough free space to add winXP to the running win7, so i could try this.
But now to my question.
Ive got the Avatar 3D-Bluray in a MKV-file. The file itself is not that important, but the question is: is it possible to convert the 3d-Bluray in a format which can be read or played by the Headplay? I was told that the Headplay runs 800x600 flipped avi-videos (ok, avi is only a container-file, so what is the actual codec used?). So the task would be take the bluray-3d-file, downsize it to 800x600 and convert the 3d-information to flipped side by side.
Was anyone capable to do something like this or play such a video via PC through the Headplay-VGA port? Or is there a video-editing tool to do such a task?
Thanks in advance!
