Can you play 3d movies on this device

This device doesn't do much if anything. It kept freezing on me and I always had to unplug and restart it to work. HATED IT!!!

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.

No. These glasses use DLP link. Whatever device is used to display the 3D has to be dlp link compatible.

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.

No, it's not 3d.Try looking up the "Sony BDP-S5100 3D Blu-ray Disc Player with Wi-Fi"

Read the description. The second bullet point answers your question. Supports 3D too.

Theoretically, yes. This projector is a DLP 3D ready projector BUT understand that the only video inputs on this model projector are VGA and the standard definition "yellow" video connection. In order to view a 3D movie on a 3D ready device (PS3, Xbox 3650, PC, etc) you would need to have that device plugged into the projector on the VGA port (standard def won't work for the 3D aspect) and have compatible 3D glasses (the cheapy red/blue ones don't work, nor do the plastic ones used at movie theaters, you'd need a TV quality set). As for myself I've never used the feature since I don't have the glasses. But it is supposedly possible.

Hi Dianne, you can use your PC or laptop too. But you need to have a 3D video card on your PC or laptop to view 3D movies. Thanks, PCrush

I haven't used the 3d function at all but it works fine on my panasonic hd tv to view videos, load pics, or set wallpaper/screen saver.

I own 3 of these devices and they play everything perfectly, including 3D movie files. I don't know what you mean when you ask if it shows up as a 3D enabled device, but here is how it can be used: Get a large external hard drive and fill it with .MKV downloads, both 3D and regular movies. Connect the hard drive to this device and connect it to a TV via HDMI. Select the movie you want to play. If it is a 3D movie it will begin playing as a split screen until you hit the 3D button on your TV remote at which point you are now watching a 3D movie. Note: the best reason for purchasing this device is that a large percentage of the 1080p movie uploads use DTS sound. If you have a Samsung TV purchased within the last couple years, you can plug your hard drive directly into the USB port on your TV and play the movies without the device because Samsung has paid the licensing fee to use DTS sound compression. No other TV manufacturers have, so if you try to play movies directly through their USB port, many will not play with sound. This device fixes that problem.

Supposedly, but I believe it is only for computer input. I don't believe you can hook up a 3D Blu-Ray player and watch a 3D movie. So, for most people the answer is "it won't do 3D that you want it to do." It is still a nice projector

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.

Yes, you can. When you connect camera to TV it shows videos in the format selected on TV. So if 3D is active then it will show in 3D.

Nope. It says it's compatible with 3d Blu Ray. But I tried playing a 3d blu-ray disc and it couldn't play it. I was using PowerDVD 10 with the latest patch.

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

If your tv is not 3d you can't watch 3d movies even with a 3d blu ray, the tv does not have the capability to transmit 3d
