The drive doesn't come with software to playback. 3D playback is basically the ability of the drive to support 3D content on a bluray disc. But you'll need a 3D display device, 3D supported video display card, and 3D supported video playback software. Nero is an example of 3D playback software (most recent version that is)

The company did not provide any software for playing movies. A US Federal Judge said if the add stated the drive can play 3d movies then the software should be included with the drive.

Sorry, I didn't have time to test it this week, still no answer. But I am pretty sure it supports 3D, I can test it this week if you still need it.

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

No offense but the DVD player "forwards" the 3D picture to your Television. The player in itself supports NO particular 3D type of display per se. It should work on ANY standard 3D display with an HDMI input.

If you have a 3d player hooked up to the unit then the 3d signal will be passed cleanly thru to the tv. Further its only useable with a tv with an arc hdmi input. The 3d player will detect that it is hooked up to the tv thru this audio return channel and then will display 3d. If you have an input set to [on the Sony] something other than the dvd player when first turned on then the 3d player will not detect 3d tv function and might give a no 3d tv detected code. Just make sure input on Sony is correct and trun dvd off and back on and it will then reset to dectect 3d tv.

Yes, it plays regular DVD's but you do need a 3D TV in order to view a 3D DVD- as well as 3D glasses.

You shud be able to, any 3D source shud work. In May case I have a PS3 that sends 3D thru my receiver over hdmi, but that's not necessary.

This will play 3D content supplied through a cable or satellite service, I don't have Direct TV specifically but know this to be true. Hope this helps.

You need the software to play the unit. The software does not work on my machine. I even had a IT guy come install and it still had error when trying to play Blu Ray.

You should be able to play regular blue ray or dvd's, but a 3d tv is required if you want to play 3d dvd's. (Though you may be able to use the 3d dvd's, but it will not be able to play in 3d mode.)

yes I can play back discs that I have burned... I can play playaway audiobooks( preloaded digital players) and of course other CDs that are manufactured by a publisher. The sound is great. Jean
