3D tv Compatibility list

Nvidia 3D Vision uses the nvidia 3D vision glasses.
Nvidia 3DTV play sends the pictures to the TV in one of the hdmi 1.4 formats, then the TV displays the pictures in 3D with any 3D glasses the TV is designed to work with, some TVs (i'd rather say "most TVs") will not support the 3D vision glasses.

Are you really sure about this? I can understand that the new 3d tv's might not be able to sync with the nvidia glasses but can't you use the nvidia transmitter the same way you do with your 3d pc monitor? That would send the signal to the nvidia glasses while you use the new 3d tv as your pc monitor. It's probably wishful thinking but it would be nice.

3D Play is designed to work without AND with the emitter (payable without / free for 3D vison owners) - So I would in fact asume it is working (in terms that the eitter starts syncing the glasses).
However, you prolly will get better results with the native TV glasses since they are in sync to the actual panel timing, while the emitter is synced to the computer's video output. Any delay due to picture processing will lead to increased ghosting and nvidia can simply not implement profiles for each and every upcomming 3D TV...

Unfortunately the newer 2010 model 3D HDTVs do not support the VESA stereo sync port and thus do not sync with 3rd party glasses (meaning Nvidia's). They will only work with the TV brand glasses, ie if you have a Panasonic TV it only works with Panasonic glasses.

So, just to clarify since im tired and often dense, 3DTV is supposed to work with any 3D tv, using at least that tv's glasses? IE 3D gaming would be functional through the PC on said 3DTV?

When i was at the PAX 2010 show in Boston the guy from Nvidia said the 3D kit works with any 120Mhz monitor / TV. Can anyone confirm that?

yes that's true
however none of the new "3d" tvs accept a 120hz signal
all of them are the same old 60hz tvs

Has anyone actually seen 3d on any of these new 3dtv LCD sets?

I'd be really interested in a new samsung TV but not if the ghosting is anything like the 22" Monitor that came with my 3dvision bundle (can never remember the model number)

So far I wouldn't touch the Samsung LED 3D TV, the review of this against the new Panasonic Plasma 3D tv is a clear winner.
Samsung also do a new Plasma 3D TV but don't know much about it yet.

The Panasonic with inky deep blacks equal or better than a Pioneer Kuro sounds great, this would really make an impact especially in the 3D world let alone how good 2D would look.
The review mentioned other issues with the Samsung like crosstalk(ghosting) and the glasses not working when you tilt your head or lie on your side.
Not that I can see why you would watch anything 3D laying with your head on its side because I have tried with my current equipment and it just looks weird but each to their own.

The Panasonic sounded faultless to say the least but you got to do your homework to make sure I guess.

I wish the signaling to the glasses was uniform across all manufacturers, for something so simple as synching the shutters why they all want to make this proprietary is beyond me as it makes no sense. What does make sense is as business perspective and a dollar grab is if you have a family you obviously need 4 or 5 or more glasses with that brand of TV, guess what when you want that new 3D TV say 2 or 3 years from now you will most likely stick with that brand due to the glasses you already have. This bites because maybe that next 3D TV in that brand isn't as good as a competitor that time round.

Thanks Bullripper, will certainly check out the Panasonic. I 100% agree about the shutter sync by IR, its a real shame it can't be standardised. No doubt some 3rd party company will come up with glasses that work with any brand of tv though...it would be quite easy really. they could even put a learning chip in them like the universal IR remotes you can get.

Thinking about it, i bet i wouldn't be technically that difficult to build an IR repeater that receives the IR signal from the TV and sends out a corresponding signal to whatever glasses you are using.

Hi Andrew, there is one important question about 3DTV play that isn't answered clearly in the FAQ :

Can we use Nvidia 3D vision glasses to play on a 3DTV with 3DTV play ? Is it TV manufacturer glasses only or are there some 3DTVs that still work with 3D vision glasses ?

I saw a new 2010 Samsung HDTV playing Monsters vs. Aliens at Best Buy--looked fantastic....as it should for around $3,000!

And the glasses are $199 each.....ouch!
