PS3 3D

it will be intresting to see what support 3d products will have on 3d ready products such as the acer h5360.

on that note the acer h5360 only input for digital connectivity is the hdmi . The projector allows 120 hz. Am I correct in saying it will only accept the 120hz signal if you have a dvi to hdmi connector ? as per someone said you will only get a 120hz signal with a DVI dual connection and not just HDMI to HDMI ?


I will be happy if my acer works with my pc for 3d blu-ray , atleast I will have a cheap method to watch 3d blu-rays untill the format is decided if it will take off or not and more 3d blu-rays become available :)

HDMI is completely pin compatible with single link DVI, it caries exactly the same 18 signals as a single link DVI-D connector, at the same time HDMI offers the bandwith of dual Link DVI.
Don't be fooled, there is no such thing as a passive dual link to HDMI adaptor, they are basically just 2 connectors in on mold, which is why they are comparable cheap.
Anyway, such adaptor will limit the maximum resolution, if it works at all. To find out get one (my 3D vision set came with one included) and see what the max resolution is you can pick at 120Hz, which will be your maximum S3D res. It's doubtful and remains to be seen whether 3D Blu Rays will play with that resolution, though....

Some interesting info here.

How do you know how your 3D display is displaying 3D? I have a Viewsonic 3D pj, and I'm fairly confident it WONT work with the PS3 3D considering there is no HDMI on it at all, but I have no clue how it's doing 3D (checkerboard etc).

well i run computer dvi to projector hdmi and the native resolution is 720p and I can select 120hz games and movies play fine with 120hz both in and out of 3d mode.

Would 3d blu-rays not do the same as normal blu-rays and downscale to the native resolution of the display ?

3D blu ray standard is fixed for frame packing at 1080p/24. I do not know whther the HDCP allows for downscaling, allthough I would supose it works. But who knows until trhey are released it's all 'bout guess....

yea time will only tell, I just hope i can view it with the projector as I dont want to buya new tv yet untill everything is set in stone and a 3d standard is full set and that the 33d product will last. Plus I only just purchased a new 46" LED tv august last year not expecting 3d untill 2011/2012.


but thanks for the info it is much appreciated :) /teehee.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':teehee:' />

They now say 3D Blu-Ray won't be coming to PS3 this summer. Just games for now I guess...

Hearing this makes me feel bad for the people who bought 3dtvs' lol. By next year there will have been a 3dtv 2.0 released and 3dtv 3.0. Plus all the add-backs (that is my word-reintroducing features like usb, internet, wifi, kitchensink then selling it likes its a revolutionary first). You will still be able to play the games though...............i wonder if we could use our exsisting hardware with the ps3..........hhhhmmmmmm
