Any success on getting 3D MKV's out of MakeMKV?

updates anyone? I just ripped my first 3dbd using anydvd hd and the file size is monstrous since clownbd doesn't support 3d. would love to know if makemkv is working now...

Try it. It's free.

Hey guys! I'm trying to play in full SBS as well. I've got a 3D laptop with an NVIDIA Geforce GT 550M graphics card, which I believe supports 3840x2160. Is that correct? If not, then I've found my issue. If it does support that resolution, then read on.

I have tried playing 3D blu-rays on my computer with both stereoscopic player and powerdvd 12, and I swear up and down that the 3D movies on the blu-ray AND full-SBS files look the exact same quality as the half-sbs files I have in that I can see tell when looking very closely that the horizontal resolution if halved because each pixel is doubled up next to one another, whereas, when it's in 2D, I can tell it's truly 1080p. I've gone back and forth between the 2D and 3D modes, and I truly believe that the horizontal resolution is being halved. Is this how FULL SBS and blu-ray are supposed to look? If not, then how do I watch Full-SBS? Can XMBC help me?

MakeMKV does work quite well to create a 3D mkv file for playback at full quality. The file when played back through XBMC's built in player will only display one eye though. As of right now the only player I've seen that will play back the file generated is Stereoscopic Player, so you'll have to set that up as an external player. It does work very well, though. I got it set up so that my TV auto-detects 3D mode when playing 3D content instead of having to manually tell my TV to swap into 3D mode.
