You can play some movies from Netflix in 3D and there is a setting for Side-By-Side for 3d quicktime files from your computer.

Yes, through another Device like a PlayStation or through Cable 3D Channels

No. I don't use the 3d option. This television is worth every penny! I don't have an HD box and the picture is still crystal.

Yes you can. Simply hook it up via hdmi and set your tv to display 3d and off you go.

No. It supports Netflix and Vudu only. If you want a 3D Blu-ray player that streams other services, you should try the Sony BDP-S5100 or the Samsung BD-F5900.

My answer is yes if the cable provider plays the 3D program and you guy turn on the 3D function. Yesterday I watched 3D movie from the cable provider and I turn on the 3D function and It was great but we don't really like the 3D movie much.

You do not need a 3D TV to use this player, but, understand, that you cannot watch 3D movies on this player and expect to see 3D on your TV.

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

Curious if the PS3 has been updated to be able to play the 3d without the convertor?

Does this still work as good if you do not have a 3D TV? I want all the other features and have not found them on a player besides this one...any suggestions?

I do not have any 3D source to test it but the Sony store website does say the following: 3D pass-through capability allows you to enjoy Blu-ray 3D movies, 3D video games and other 3D content with compatible players and HDTVs.

Any update on this? I'm looking to buy this unit too but want to be able to watch 3D movies on it.

It is 3D capable. If you have a 3D capable blu-ray player and if you can actually find (they are rare) 3D blu-ray movies or special events OR if your cable, dish, or whatever provider you use offers a program in 3D then you will be able to watch it in 3D IF you also purchase 3D glasses. Otherwise you will never know the difference and the likelyhood of ever using it is practically nil. Technology is working on improving 3D for home use in TV's to be viewed without glasses but they say it is still a few years away. This tv being 3D should not influence your decision to buy unless you have a special need for 3D (rare).

3D DVD player will play regular un-3D Blu-Ray DVDs as well as non-Blu-Ray DVDs and does not require a 3D TV.Frank Mason

Hi, always, as a general rule, to view the 3D effect it is required a 3D capable TV, if you use a 3D Blu Ray movie with a non-3D TV you will only see a normal 2D Blu-Ray. So to answer your two questions, yes and yes. As a final comment, I don't recommend this player, look for Sony.
