I havent tried a 3D DVD player but it works with USB drive or USB based hard drive. The tablet does not work as an external monitor.

Yes, 2D can be watched on this set-in fact, its the principle reason I bought mine-not for the 3D but the 2D picture. A TV needs more processing power to handle 3D which also improves the 2D experience. That said, this set will also upscale ANY 2D picture to 3D. which I have found to be a good thing. The worst thing about this set is its remote. I would much prefer an "old style" remote as opposed to the touch screen, voice recognition, etc. It simply doesn't work as well.

Hi Barbara, even if the Sony Blu-ray Player has 3D functionality, you need a 3D TV to display videos in 3D. -Vincent

3D, but old school checkerboard 3D. You would need to get another 3D player of some type to be able to actually utilize 3D, like a Panasonic 3D blu-ray unit. The unit may experience a chip failure as the previous user said, but it is a fairly inexpensive repair and the picture is VERY good. I have seen some of these units advertised on craigslist for fairly low prices.

Yes there is. This TV has worked really well for us and we seldom watch anything in 3d

you do need a 3D blu ray player in order to play in 3D. As far as the other question I use Windows OS.

Specifically, you use an HDMI cable. I believe that older HDMI cables don't work for 3D, but I might be mistaken.

Yes, you do need a 3D TV in order to display the 3D content that comes out of the 3D-Bee. That may be the same reason you are not seeing 3D when you play your 3D Blu-ray player. 3D content is coming out of the device but is not being played or displayed on a screen that is capable of displaying 3D.

Thanks for the response. Let me know if a 3D movie plays in this player as I am very interested in purchasing this unit.

This Blu-Ray player does not require a 3-D TV to function properly. It works with our HDTV just fine and it plays both regular DVD's and Blu-Ray discs with equal efficiency.

It does, but all I have used are 3D blu ray movies. I just used a 3D capable LG blu ray player.

You can watch regular TV or 3D. My TV is set to recognize the 3 D function.
