I've spent the past day googling for the use of Nvidia's 3DTV. Even read setup guides but I'm still quite confused so I decided to come here to ask.
I'd like to have some clarifications about how to enable 3D rendering in games with Samsung's brand new led tv and is 1920x1080 3D picture possible with 60hz per eye? I managed to get Battlefield 3 running with 24hz per eye but it was unplayable.
I do have the following:
- Geforce GTX 580, which supports 3D
- Latest Nvidia drivers with all 3D applications installed
- Samsung 46ES7005 Led tv, which supports 3D. Panel was either 120 or 200Hz.
- Samsung active shutter 3D glasses
- HDMI 1.4 cable
- "Stereoscopic rendering" -option in Nvidia control panel and the test in it works.
So the questions are:
- Is my setup even capable of showing 1080p 3D with Nvidia?
- Am I right that 1080p 3D is nowadays possible even with 60hz per eye?
- Am I right that the new HDMI 1.4 should support 3D picture in 1080p format, 60hz per eye?
- Do all 3D gaming stuff work properly with Samsung's active shutter glasses?
- If a game doesn't provide Hz modification, just resolution, how am I supposed to set 3D on? Ctrl + alt + insert didn't do anything nor the other hotkeys.
- In any case do I need to use my TV's side-by-side 3D -option to make the picture 3D or should it always be automatic?

Another Option would be to try TriDef from DDD. They (unlike Nvidia) support HDMI 1.4 3D formats at 60 per eye for gaming over HDMI connections. I've no idea why Nvidia does not do the same. Perhaps they want to give people another reason to buy AMD GPUs and not theirs?

Hi
I have posted this before and I will post it again. The original intention of 3DTV Play was for frame packed HDMI 1.4 modes, not to support every mode under the sun that the TV allows. We were trying to make it easy for customers to connect to 3D TVs, and not have to switch modes everytime they wanted to run 3D.
That being said we underestimated the demand for other modes like checkerboard and side/side mode and we will have to go back and evaluate when we could add these features. We will work on checkerboard, side/side is undecided.

Here it a few days short of a "Full Year" with no support for any addition formats to allow 1080 at 60 per eye over HDMI, instead we are still given 1080 at 24 per eye. (not talking full frame 120Hz)
3DTV Play is not needed to watch 3D Blu-rays with Arcsoft or Cyberlink. People buy it to enable gaming. A whole year later and Nvidia still does not offer it, unlike their competitors.

Thank you D-Man11 yet again. This TriDef looks really great with my TV and wasn't hard to set up so I suppose I'll go with this. I haven't gotten my hands on the rollermod yet but maybe I'll give it a shot too. Don't really know if this side-by-side is better than checkerboard but it sure looks great, at 60hz per eye! Shame on you Nvidia! :)

I personally find 1280x720 3dtv play a sharper image than tridef sbs 1920x1080, but in all honesty both programs have their good and bad points.
I wish Nvidia would add automatic convergence as an option like tridef does, that's my main bug bear with 3dtvplay/3d vision, i will have perfect convergence for the gameplay, but cutscenes or close up camera can really warp your eyes if you have set your custom convergence high.

Nvidia only supports 1920x1080@24 per eye for HDMI 1.4 3D HDTVs via 3DTV Play.
The only formats currently being supported by Nvidia at 60 per eye over HDMI are Checkerboard and Interlaced via 3D Vision and Optomized for GeForce.
If your TV allows you to select Checkerboard as a format, you could probably use rollermod to make it work.

Thank you D-Man11!
My TV supports checkerboard so I'll look into that.
