Pretty straightforward. The only thing really troubling me is that since I'm now mostly talking to the Onkyo, the NVIDIA Control Panel thinks I have no 3D Vision Ready system. To be clear; all modes (including the 120hz ones) work fine through the Onkyo. It's just that the monitor is listed as 'TX-SR308' instead of 'Acer H5360'. There USB controller works fine too.
Currently I use SPDIF to stream DD and DTS to the receiver. That's fine for movies, but it only gives stereo for games. I do know there are soundcards which are capable of Dolby Live and/or DTS connect, but I'm saving that as a last resort.
Before I starting patching drivers /pirate.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':pirate:' /> I'm more than interested to any insights or solutions you might have. Can I force Control Panel to 'think' I have a H5360? Maybe can I change the ID of the Onkyo or better yet, reduce the receivers to a HDMI (which only picks up the audio)? The receiver is HDMI 1.4 (thus 3D) compliant, but I'm sure they never though of enthousiast setups.
Any insights are greatly appreciated :D (and for the NVIDIA engineers out there: please implement PAP)

I'm in the same boat and have been working on this issue for hours. The best I can accomplish is using a custom inf file (monitor) for the Acer H5360 that many of the Optoma HD66 people seem to use in order to utilize 3d vision correctly. This will allow 3d vision to be recognized by the stereoscopic 3d display wizard BUT you will lose audio through HDMI as your display is recognized as a DVI display instead of an HDMI device.
I tried just running an optical cable through the receiver but still get no audio (probably just a receiver issue). I'll try an analog cable for audio next. So if you want the WD to work just google up "Acer_H5360.inf". Some forums have links to the inf file. Open up device manager and update your monitor driver to this one. Just be aware of the audio forthcoming issue.
I honestly wish there was a way to manually tell the wizard which display I have instead of relying on its auto detect feature. Either that or finding another custom monitor.inf file that has HDMI audio enabled, but that might be stretching it. lets hope someone has a solution.

My Onkyo lets you switch between HDMI/coax/optical per input (bd, cbl/sat, etc) through the setup menu. Maybe something like that will work?

I actually used the Entech tools to capture the EDID of the Acer, create a .inf and force it through device manager. The interesting thing is (even after reboot) the NVIDIA Control Panel still indicates 'TX-SR308'. Thanks for the suggestion tho' :)
HDMI/HDCP is such a clusterf*** I don't even know where to begin. Don't even get me started on the fact I can't push HD audio through my GT240.

[quote name='Azure247' post='1086179' date='Jul 11 2010, 12:01 PM']Cant you connect one HDMI from pc to receiver and a second HDMI cable from pc to projector?[/quote]
My card has only 1x D-SUB, 1x DVI and 1x HDMI connections.
It would require another PCI-E x16 slot with a secondary. My onboard 'videocard' (Radeon HD2100 with shared memory and such and no HDMI audio) does not suffice.
The secondary videocard should be any ATI card, really, from the 4xxx or 5xxx range to HD content (Protected Audio Path is sadly only available on the the GTX 480).
In other news; I noticed the Xonar HDAV, but that's like 200 euros and only supports one media software package.

Bump to this topic because I solved it; read [url="http://grazz.com/2010/09/3d-vision-pass-through-for-your-av-receiver/"]my blog[/url]. In short; fake EDID.
