A taste of 3d Wondering if my HDTV needs to be replaced
Well, I recently downloaded the new drivers for my Nvidia 250 and it came with the 3D vision drives. I tested it out with a pair of 3-d glasses I got from a Shrek 3-d video. It's cool, but I noticed that the colors were off, typical since you only have red and cyan for the glasses. Also, some of the images had, silouetts (probably what you would call ghosting) slightly next to them. I assume this is because I don't have the 200 dollar nvidia glasses kit.

What I'm wondering though, is about the 120hz display. I have a two year old Sharp 32inch HDTV display. The model number is LC-32SH12U. I can't tell if it's compatible with nvidia vision or not. I assume it should work fine since I am able to enable it and see it with my cardboard glasses. However, I don't want to spend the money on the glasses kit if the picture doesn't look better. I assume the glasses and the missing color and adjust so that the pictures looks like it normally would without the 3-d steroscopic enhancement.

I'm just how the image with the nivida glasses should look.

The 3D Vision Discover mode that you've tried and the 3D Vision shutter glasses use completely different technologies to present you with the stereo 3d image. By using the shutter glasses you also need a display capable of accepting 120 Hz video signal coming from the video card and I'm pretty sure this Sharp TV you have isn't capable ot that, so it won't work with 3D Vision. As a comparison the anaglyph 3D Vision Discover mode does not need a special display, so it works on any normal one, but the idea analyph stereo relies on has its own drawbacks as you've noticed yourself ;)

Ok, I had a feeling that was going to be the case. So I'd have to buy a new TV or monitor that could support it.

Thanks for the info.
