[WINDOWS] HOW-TO play SBS 3D video in 3D mode on a 3D TV with external player

blackoper · 2012-02-20 01:22

I'm trying to get individual left/right and single file over/under formats working. Thanks to this thread, I've got SBS integrated. I've created separate extensions for each type of file, but stereoscopic player sits there with a black screen isn't loading anything other than the basic sbs type

Since some time the stereoscopic player seems to crash when I switch from fullscreen to windowed mode or when I want to terminate the full screen to switch back to XBMC. Any ideas?

Ok so I got side by side working correctly but I'm unable to get over and under to come up. Stereoscopic player starts but just sits there and doesn't load anything. Xml below:

Code:

<playercorefactory>

<players>

<player name="SBS-3D" type="ExternalPlayer" audio="false" video="true">

<filename>C:\Program Files\NVIDIA Corporation\NVIDIA 3D Vision Video Player\StereoPlayer.exe</filename>

<args>"{1}" -il:SideBySideRF -ihw -fss -ol:NVIDIA -term</args>

<hidexbmc>false</hidexbmc>

<hideconsole>false</hideconsole>

<warpcursor>none</warpcursor>

</player>

<player name="OU3D" type="ExternalPlayer" audio="false" video="true">

<filename>C:\Program Files\NVIDIA Corporation\NVIDIA 3D Vision Video Player\StereoPlayer.exe</filename>

<args>"{1}" -il:OverUnderRT -fss -ol:NVIDIA -term</args>

<hidexbmc>false</hidexbmc>

<hideconsole>false</hideconsole>

<warpcursor>none</warpcursor>

</player>

</players>

<rules action="prepend">

<rule filetypes="mkv|ts|avi|mpeg|mpg|mp4" filename=".*_3D.*" player="SBS-3D"/>

<rule filetypes="mkv|ts|avi|mpeg|mpg|mp4" filename=".*_OU3D.*" player="OU3D"/>

</rules>

</playercorefactory>

What am I missing here? i've tried multiple command line entries with this being my most recent one. Link to stereoscopic player command line options: http://3dtv.at/products/Player/CmdLineParams_en.aspx

um, i have not tried it myself, but looks like you have only one /filetypes rule set and that is for sbs

try this

<playercorefactory>
<players>
<player name="SBS-3D" type="ExternalPlayer" audio="false" video="true">
<filename>C:\Program Files\NVIDIA Corporation\NVIDIA 3D Vision Video Player\StereoPlayer.exe</filename>
<args>"{1}" -il:SideBySideRF -ihw -fss -ol:NVIDIA -term</args>
<hidexbmc>false</hidexbmc>
<hideconsole>false</hideconsole>
<warpcursor>none</warpcursor>
</player>

<player name="OU3D" type="ExternalPlayer" audio="false" video="true">
<filename>C:\Program Files\NVIDIA Corporation\NVIDIA 3D Vision Video Player\StereoPlayer.exe</filename>
<args>"{1}" -il:OverUnderRT -fss -ol:NVIDIA -term</args>
<hidexbmc>false</hidexbmc>
<hideconsole>false</hideconsole>
<warpcursor>none</warpcursor>
</player>
</players>
<rules action="prepend">
<rule filetypes="mkv|ts|avi|mpeg|mpg|mp4" filename="*_SBS.*" player="SBS-3D"/>
<rule filetypes="mkv|ts|avi|mpeg|mpg|mp4" filename="*_OU.*" player="OU3D"/>

also, of coarse, you will to rename sbs files as *_SBS.* and over/under as *_OU.*

Great Post!

Do you know if Stereoscopic Player can overlay external subtitles over the film?

thanks

i don't and i gave up on stereoscopic player after many tries but I can tell you that mpc-hc will overlay the subtitles just fine when doing HSBS and overunder.
