Forcing sync signal out the 3pin mini-din port stereo
Hello Guys,

I have an NVidia Quadro 5000, Window XP SP3, and NVidia Driver 270.51. So, I'm developing a VR world in Unity3D which does not support stereo features. So, I have to force the sync signal manually. I ran the NVidia Control Pannel and selected "Program Settings". So, I selected the executable of the application I am developing.
I chose:
Force stereo shuttering: on
OpenGL rendering GPU: Auto-select
Stereo Display mode: on-board DIN Connector
Stereo- Enable : on
Vertycal sync : Force on

so I lunched the application expecting the video card activating the sync signal out of the 3 mini Din port which is connected to a polarized shutter. Of course the screen (if that matters) is set to a resolution which supports 120hz. But my shutter doesn't start.
What shall I check?

Cheers,
GC.

I'm in a similar situation - I need to force a sync signal out of the stereo connector for some custom hardware. I'm trying to measure the signal with an oscilloscope, but I can't see anything. I'm using the following settings in the Control Panel: 3D App -Default Global Settings Enable overlay - off Stereo display mode - onboard DIN connector Stereo Enable - on Stereo Swap eyes - on Triple buffering - on Vertical sync - Use the 3D application setting. Is this correct?

Never mind, got it to work. For some reason having 'Enable stereoscopic 3D' selected on the 'Set up stereoscopic 3D window' caused it to not function.
