3DTV Play Activation not working.

We already know it's not working. We know they are having trouble with the server and they have released a 120 day trial to tie us over. Customer service can't really tell you anything you don't already know. You'll have to get a refund or wait it out with the 120 day trial.

3dTV Play doesn't do side by side or checkerboard. It uses framepacking. 3DTV Play is limited to 720p 60hz or 1080p 24hz due to the bandwidth limitation of HDMI 1.4. Nvidia havent updated 3dtv play for HDMI 2.0 which would allow higher resolutions. Nvidia have also got 4k 60hz working over Hdmi 1.4 using 4:2:0 colour chroma (but not in SLI) but won't do the same for 3D for some reason.

Aloha :-) I did have a working win-7 installation that I could watch 3d iso's using powerdvd and 3d-play from. Did work most times, but the problem was not nvidia... Now, I have upgraded to win-10 - the os works wonderfull too, but my 3d-play has disappeared ! When I go to the Nvidia control-panel I only see the 3d-vision options where I saw 3d-play too before. When I install the 3d-play that I bought in 2013, it fails because it is allready installed... So, do I need to deinstall and install 3d-play again (including the activation problems) ? Or do you know of a different solution ? Mahalo, Danskmand
