I fiddled with this a couple of years ago, and got frustrated. What I was trying to do was get the 3D content off of my cable provider to play on my H5360. What I ended up doing was using this: http://www.blackmagicdesign.com/products/intensity to record the side/side video, then I was able to play it back using Cyberlink or the Nvidia 3d movie player, which I actually used the "full" version, which is at: http://www.3dtv.at/Downloads/Index_en.aspx Looking at this again now, I see that 3dtv states "Stereoscopic Player 2.0.7 supports multi-stream Matroska files, Realcel autostereoscopic displays and accepts frame packing input from Blackmagic Design Decklink 3D capture cards." Which would mean you would need to buy one of these: http://www.blackmagicdesign.com/products/decklink More than likely, the DeckLink 4K Extreme for $995. I'm not recommending or promoting this, as expensive and I haven't personally had it work for me, I'm just saying I went part way down this path and it needs further investigation by you, and you to contact the product tech dudes. Just an idea, djb Edit: P.S. you need to have a fast PC/HD(SSD)/etc. Do your research.
