3d Vision glasses + Mitsubishi DLP compatible with 3dbluray, xbox, ps3, directv
I been searching everywhere and just came up a solution for those who have a DLP HDTV such as Mitsubishi's which is what I have (WD 65737).
I was very close to buying XPAND X102 DLP Link glasses for watching 3D BLuRay / 3d broadcast content but realized it probably won't be necessary.
Instead of purchasing the 3DC-100 which comes with its own emitter + glasses, buy the 3DA-1 box which is much cheaper and converts the SBS signal such as ones from a 3d bluray player, and all DirecTV 3d content including espn3d to checkboard.
P.S. : I have not tested this yet but theoretically it should work because glasses are synced via the emitter cable from your DLP to Nvidia emitter.
The trick is to run a 3d movie using the vision player in full screen and enable repeat. This will allow your glasses to sync.
Switch inputs to your receiver or gaming console and also turn on 3d mode from TV menu.
You will notice the bright green light stays on but now the glasses are in sync with the signal coming from the TV.
Since the adapter is not yet available I have no way of testing this but I will as soon as I receive mine.
For those with newer 3DTV, wait for release of 3DTV PLAY software by Nvidia which will allow you to use the glasses that came with your TV. This will allow you to play games in 3D WITHOUT buying a Nvidia 3d vision emitter + glasses.

I also don't like the XPAND glasses because you have to buy batteries from XPAND as replacement! Nvidia glasses are rechargeable.

Nice. Yeah this has worked for Games like Avatar and Invincible tiger which have native checkerboard output.
Since I am a samsung DLP owner, the converter most likely won't work for me sadly. Hopefully someone tests it and confirms that Mitsubishi was bluffing when they said they are putting EDID lock on the converter.

Or, for about $50 you can get an EDID minder which will memorize an EDID from any display and make it report back as this model constantly. I think i got mine at Monoprice.com. I did this for my Mits 60635 since the 3D Vision driver and PC were having trouble dealing with the HDMI switcher I have in between the set and PC. Connected the display directly to the EDID device once for about 10 seconds, it blinked signaling it got the Mitsu DLP EDID info, and now replicates that to the PC when connected to the display or not. So now even with the switcher in-line all works as expected.
If you got one of these and found a friend (or sympathetic employee at Big Screen Store, etc...) you'd just need to hook it up for a sec to the Mits and then it SHOULD report your Samsung as a Mits as well when connected to that.
On a side-note, I'm hoping I can somehow do this with my other 3D display later on down the line. I got a Samsung 450 plasma myself when it was on sale for Black Friday @ Sears, for use in another room. Eventually I'd love to run 3D Vision Surround on it for center monitor and two projectors for sides on a slightly curved screen flanking the center plasma. Problem is, 3DV Surround requires 3 identical monitors. I won't do triple 50" plasmas since the bezel on the Samsung is too large and projectors are cheaper even than this old outdated plasma. So I may need to get more of the EDID devices to trick it into thinking I have 3 matching projectors or plasmas. However (there is always a wrinkle!), I've read the Samsung won't enable 3D at anything other than 1366x768 or XGA, and the projectors I'd like are slightly different res @ 1280x720. if the projectors can't take a 1366x768 signal in 3D, I'd have another mismatch. As for the other supported 3D mode on the Samsung 450, I don't know what happens when you play XGA (1024x768), a non-wide aspect ratio on a 16:9 plasma? It's also lower res even than 720p, and I'm coming from 1080p on my Mits now. However, depending on how it looked, there are matching XGA 3D projectors for the sides..

Yeah, that is one possibility. I heard of these HDMI detective devices which copy the EDID. The only problem is that I am from Canada and we do not have any Mitsubishi TVs here for sale. I'd have to drive down to Buffalo but even there...last time I went, they had no Mitsu's for display at Best buy. Due to their size it seems they are special order, online buy merchandise...etc
Do you think there is chance these Mitsu EDID's may be uploaded over the net and flashed on to the device in this manner?

it would be nice if the nvidia glasses worked with the mitsu emitter.... I have three sets of glasses and would rather not mess with having to keep the nvidia emitter on.

keep us updated if anyone gets this to work. I think it is a serious disadvantage that nvidia glasses ony work for pc. i cant wait to get a solution that covers all 3d gaming devices.

sorry im a little late to the game, but i have recently purchased a 60" Mitsu DLP that is 3D compatible. I have been trying to find a way to watch 3D on it w/out buying the $400 kit and apparently it seems that you guys have a solution. I was going to buy a PS3 to play Blu Rays on (as well as 3DTV) but am totally unsure of the technology. A fax sheet or guidance would be appreciated.
