I just bought the Acer x1261-3d. However it is still detected as Generic CRT? Does your Acer actually show up in the Nvidia settings/Windows 7 as an Acer X1261? I also can't get the 3D to work?
Any ideas?[/quote]
All,
I figured this out... I switched it over to the VGA cable it came with and voila - detected as Acer X1261-3D (and now 3D vision mode works) - works very well too. *On that note I am very dissapointed that Nvidia doesn't allow 85hz on say 1280x800 etc... the projector is perfectly capable of it... so you are kind of locked in at 1024x768 or 800x600 (why use that?)... I will say the 3D videos I have looked great and oblivion was fantastic across the wall in 3D.
I will say that the extra money (if you have it - and I didn't) woudl be worth the 1280x800 (widescreen 3D projectors).

Acer X1261 3D projector.
Runs 3D games and 3D Blu-ray Discs.
Nvidia 3D image quality good.
3D Blu-ray image quality good but Panasonic 3D plasma's heaps better.
3D image goes in. Does not come out as 3D TV image does.
Good price for a projector that can play 3D Blu-ray Discs.
I'm happy with price and quality.

Hi. What Video card and Player software did you use to play blu-ray 3d movies ?
I have Acer X1261P (3d ready), nvidia 3d vision kit and glasses, Geforce 8600gt, Core2duo 3.2ghz, 4gb ram, but bluray 3d movie does not play in 3d mode in powerdvd 11. Could it be my video card perhaps?
I have googled around for possible reason, and although I could not find a definite answer, I kinda ended up assuming that bluray 3d playback is only available through hdmi connector on nvidia card.
This time, I really hope I am wrong!!!!
