Hubby says we have to have a 3D TV (which we don't have) to use this player and I say we don't... who's right?

It works great for both 3D and HD TVs. But, you will not be able to view a movie/game in 3D without a 3D TV.No 3D TV, No 3D

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.

Hubby is wrong but I think to make him feel better you should let him get a 3D TV.......

You're right. You don't have to have a 3D television to use this player. Works with any late model flat screen or TV that accepts HDMI input.

Yes. We have watched many 3D movies through this device. There may be an update that you have to do over the internet. Ours has worked great.

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

I have not tried it. But I have read that it requires a separate decoder for 3D.

You do not have to play 3D movies but it is capable of playing them. This player will also play standard Blu Ray as well as dvd's. It also plays dvd+ and dvd- recorded discs as well as many other discs such as picture, music and mp3 encoded discs.

The best thing to do is to bug a 3D player and connect the player on a 3D projector/TV e.g. Epson PowerLite. and play a 3D ready movie (don't forget to wear your 3D glasses). any other combinations except above may not be the same, in other words, not the best thing.

I play 3D movies from a Pansonic Blu-ray on this TV. It looks AWESOME to me. (But it is the only 3D TV I have ever seen in person, so I have nothing to compare it to).

Yes. I enjoy it - but have had it for a few years now and I have never used the 3d feature.

You will have to buy HDMI cables. If you connect a 3D player with the TV I would suggest to purchase a cable capable of that feature or a good grade cable. I have a PS3 and purchased a HDMI for that purpose. I am extremely happy with my VIZIO and have also added a VIZIO soundbar, which makes the sound amazing.

The TV has 3d so you can watch anything in the screen in 3d, doesn't matter what you are using , satellite cable Netflix, vudu, bluray it's all good....

It is not the bluray 3d player , but the 3d tv /monitor which has the feature of 2d to 3d conversion.

the kind of 3d glasses you need is dependent on the type of 3D tv you have not on this 3d converter.

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.

I don't understand your question. First of all, why would you? Second, every DVD/BlueRay that plays 3D can be played in 2D. The TV set is incredible.

Absolutely. 3D is always an optional mode, never "on" unless you request it.

Yes it will. As long as the player and the tv are 3d capable you're all set!

After looking at the sears 3d accessory bundle (normally $399, just making sure I was looking at the right thing) it looks like the only thing included in there are the transmitter, 2 pairs of glasses, and a DVD. So yes, you will need a 3D player of some sort. On the bright side though your PS3 will work. YOu just have to update the firmware if you haven't in a while.
