Is 3DTV Play supports HDMI 2.0 ?

Can we launch a game in 1920x1080x60 to get FullHD 3D ?

No. 720p/60 or 1080p/24 are the only options for 3dtv play at present.
No.

720p/60 or 1080p/24 are the only options for 3dtv play at present.

Also I think another factor is the hdmi port on the NVidia cards is 1.4a

Thanks for these fast anwsers.

This will change ASAP... i hope. Anyone desiring this should submit a question about when its coming to Nvidia support. Link in my signature.

Is checkerboard better than 720p/60?

Much better, especially when the 720p is scaled across 1080p worth of pixels, i assume since 1080p is only a little over twice as many pixels as 720p

Hm, that doesn't make sense to me. Think about a checkerboard. On each horizontal and vertical line, you have half the pixels for the left eye, and half for the right. That gives a resolution of 960x540 per eye. Whereas with 720p, you're getting 1280x720 - significantly higher. Have I missed something?

[quote="Pirateguybrush"]Have I missed something?[/quote] Yeah, I think you cut it in half twice! Sometimes it's useful to actually look at the number of pixels in the video stream. I'm rounding slightly, but here is what they are (2D or per eye 3D pixels): 1080p- 2 million pixels 1080p checkerboard- 1 million pixels 720p- 1 million pixels 960x540- half a million pixels The advantage of 1080p checkerboard over 720p is that the checkerboard pattern makes it very easy for a native 1080p display to figure out what the missing pixels should be. It's a more efficient arrangement than 720p.

1920 / 2 = 960 1080 / 2 = 540 960x540 = 518,400 per eye 1280x720 = 921,000 per eye Is that wrong? You do cut both the vertical and horizontal resolution in half, correct?

The main point is that every other pixel is missing in the video stream, so half the overall pixels. So either cut the horizontal resolution in half, or the vertical resolution in half, depending on how you want to look at it. But not both. What you're saying makes sense though, so it's kind of hard to describe why it's missing the big picture. I would say you're describing 1080i checkerboard (which doesn't happen to exist). Easier to just think of 1080p checkerboard 3D as half 1080p per eye, 1 million pixels per eye.

Ah, I think I get it. I looked at some images of checkerboards and counted up the tiles to clear it up in my head. So if I set my projector output to HDMI checkerboard, I'll get something closer to 1080p 60hz 3d?

Yeah, I just tried and the output looked correct, but the projector just displayed it as a checkerboard image - I wasn't able to get it to recognise it as a 3d signal and enable the glasses.
