Can someone tell me if the 3D allows you to switch from side by side, over/under, simulated, or 3d signal? Can you play 3D *.mkv, *.mp4 or other files

Hi Jonathan C. Cauthorn, Yes, you can defenitely switch from side by side, over/under and simulated 3d. The playable file format for this TV are the following: .mp4, .mpg, .mts or .m2ts. - Jerome

Yes it does allows you to manually switch to over/under, side by side, and simulated 3D. I have played 3D MP4s on it, but I haven't tried 3D Mkvs.

Not completely sure. I hardly have used the 3D feature. I don't remember any switching and I believe I don't have a simulated 3D. I know my other Sony TV does have that feature.

Sorry, I'm not a fan of 3 D so i never try it. I bought for the multi-switching and though it had matrix switching support.Before you ask it does not.

Most of the audio issues arise from trying to play mkv's with AC3 audio. If you email NBoxPlayer@gmail.com, they'll hook you up with a patch that you can download and install. Works like a charm and they were really fast about it! Apparently the firmware update is under the "manufacturer's copyright protection" so they can't just release the link on the internet.

I have only been able to play AVI and MP4 formats. I wish it played Matroska video files. Using a converter like AVS video converter can convert anything!

I use MX Player to play mkv, mp4, and avi movies . . . all with same name srt subtitles. You must download and install the dts audio decoder. Just do a Google search for MXplayer dts to get download link. I couldn't get VLC player to work . . . Acer not compatible, somehow. MXplayer works. Just love that MXplayer allows you to drag your finger on different areas of the screen to change volume, brightness, skip forward, skip backwards. Makes for an absolutely AWESOME 'demo'. VLC player cannot do that on my PC. MX player can also play music mp3 but this discussion is about movies. Hope this is helpful.

I did not try .iso files, however it has had no problem playing .mov,avi,MP4,mkv or divx files. For the price the unit works really nice.

Hi, this only used for viewing 2D source in bad 3D content. Would not recommend. I buy "3D Video Wizard Console" to see from my bluray 3D content on 2D Tv is much better. I recommend "3D Video Wizard Console"...!!!

Yes, Thats why I bought this one. The HDMI will pass trough and most importantly the sound will go to the receiver. And yes I have watched several movies in 3D already. I just wish it had a powered sub out signal.

Yes, you only switch to 3D when you have 3D content (unless you want to convert 2D content into 3D, which you can do too). The rest of the time the set behaves like a normal TV.

On the remote open options and apps it will show 3d there- I had to google it- but when watching 3d it will automatically switch over

While I have not done that setup myself, it should still work. Just keep in mind, in my opinion, the 3D conversion feels a little off. Playing an actual 3D source through it works great though.

I bought this tv 2 month ago, but i can not watch 3d movies, every time i try experince 3d i'm receiving a message saying that " 3D EXPERIENCE REQUIRES ENABLED TV & PLAYER", So i'm woundering myself if the tv is really 3d tv or not?, how the tv needs to be setup so as to watch 3d movis?

(For future purchasers) Yes, it allows AVI, MP4 and MKV (but MKV can only be played if it's renamed to MP4,oddly enough).

Really counts on how much 3D do you want. I have watched several Blue Ray HD disk and there is great depth when running it in 3D mode. Nothing comes out of the screen at you but there is depth on the screen. So to me that is a select kind of 3D. I really enjoy my games on Xbox 360 have come alive some are 3D games some are not, yes I can a difference in the games that say 3D versus regular games but even the regular games have depth now that they didn't and to me, looks really cool. A very inexpensive way to change what you are seeing. It does claim that slow viewing IE: news events thing like that are not all that good and they are right but who wants to see their local weatherman in 3D anyway? I have been impressed but remember this is not movie going 3D it is adding depth to the clip nothing pops out or floats around your room like real 3D does. I have not been disappointed does exactly what Its says it will.

on question 1 yes, i play movies off a couple extra drives i have installed in my computer.on question 2, it says it can, but i have not tried it yet for the simple fact i like the hard disc media for 3d movies.

The input/output configuration is fine and will definitely work. As for 2D/3D, you have to understand that it's an optical trick. A neat one, but a trick nonetheless. And, unless your video projector is a 3D projector (is there even such a thing?) it won't work of course. The conversion only works if on there's a 3D capable display on the output.

You can use as you want. Usually I use it as 2D and HD moves are very good. Only do not forget about sound, it should be organized separately.
