please help me with my 3d-setup
Hi!

I have a Vista-HTPC with a Geforce 430 and spend the last 6 days trying to play some 3D content on my new Panasonic P50VT20 (conntected through HDMI) - with no luck. All I see is a 2D image and it seems the Geforce 430 isn't able to tell the TV that it should switch to 3D, no matter what player I tried or settings I used.

I downloaded a Side-By-Side-MKV and tried to play it in Total Media Theatre 5 (I told the player to play the file in Side-By-Side-3D-mode), the TV switches to 1080p 24Hz and plays the file - but just in 2D. I also tried a 3D-Demo-BluRay-ISO in Cyberlink Power DVD 10 and also got just a 2D-Image.

What am I doing wrong?

What I already tried:

-) installed the drivers from the CD that comes with the Geforce 430 (version 258.xx or something): with that drivers I get a "stereoscopic 3D" (like in this screenshot: http://i151.photobucket.com/albums/s...iaSettings.png ) in the NVidia Control Panel but I'm not able to activate it because when I try a wizzard launches and wants me to go through a 3D Vision USB IR emitter configuration (which I don't own)
-) installed driver version 260.99: "stereoscopic 3D" in NVidia Control Panel disappears, nothing else changes
-) installed "Nvidia 3D Vision v260.99"-drivers: nothing changes - do I need them anyway or are they part of the full driver package?

Is the whole "3D Vision"-stuff only for people that own the "3D Vision USB IR emitter" or do I also need it when I want to use the 3D glasses that came with my TV?

Please help!
