3-D ready? Are there any "actual" 3-D movies, games, or shows available?

If you're looking to watch 3D Blu-rays on your Samsung 3D-ready DLP, right now you are limited to purchasing a Panasonic 3D Blu-ray player that supports output in the "checkerboard" format (e.g. models bdt100, bdt300, bdt350 etc.) that's all you need besides your glasses and emitter setup. if you want to use other players, watch cable/dish 3D, or play 3D games (i.e. PS3) you will need a "checkerboard" adapter from Mitsubishi and you have to hack the EDID of your TV. do a Google search on that and you'll find what you need to get started.

1. Yes, you need a 3-D TV.2. Buy something else. I returned mine. Sound perfrmance was OK - but this thing was a terrible pain in the butt to deal with. Couldn't see spending several years being frustrated and angry. Try a Pioneer HTP-071 instead - that's what i got.

did you find a way to get it to work, cuz when i asked samsung they said 3-d ready doesnt mean 3-d blu ray?--- i asked and thats what i got i want to get a 3d blu ray player and i already have the ir emitter and glasses that works through the computer but only with pics, small clips and games, and dvds-- but have to download a bunch of crap to make it work. let me know if the starter kit and player works?

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.

Yes. Lemme say though. I'm a guy who likes cool gimmicks. 3D, isn't great. Not with ps3, or 4... Not with most movies. Headache, literal, and not something one often uses. I know more than a few folks in the same spot. I still have that TV. I also have a samsung led stripped out, not smart, but hd and under a grand. Costco selling them.

yes, you can watch it in 2 d if your monitor or tv is only in 2d... also thier is a 3d to 2d slide switch on the camera for both filming and viewing in either 3d or 2d.

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.

Really counts on how much 3D do you want. I have watched several Blue Ray HD disk and there is great depth when running it in 3D mode. Nothing comes out of the screen at you but there is depth on the screen. So to me that is a select kind of 3D. I really enjoy my games on Xbox 360 have come alive some are 3D games some are not, yes I can a difference in the games that say 3D versus regular games but even the regular games have depth now that they didn't and to me, looks really cool. A very inexpensive way to change what you are seeing. It does claim that slow viewing IE: news events thing like that are not all that good and they are right but who wants to see their local weatherman in 3D anyway? I have been impressed but remember this is not movie going 3D it is adding depth to the clip nothing pops out or floats around your room like real 3D does. I have not been disappointed does exactly what Its says it will.

The projector is a very nice projector but I am sure it will not do 3D requiring modern technology. It will certainly project "double" images to simulate 3D but that would require the old red-green glasses of many decades ago.

Hello, My apologies for the delay in responding as I have just discovered an e-mail from you. Yes, the 1030 does have 3D capability provided that you have other 3-D compatible devices (TV, Blu-ray). I hope this helps you.

Yes, and it isn't advertised by Amazon as one. I bought it on deal of the day about four months ago. We love it, though we've never used the 3-D. I thought they sent the wrong TV? The glasses are top of the the line. I just don't care for 3-D. Awesome TV, I found the same set at Best Buy, 280.00 mo money!

No, unfortunately not. It's a great TV otherwise and the 3D looks really good.

OF COURSE, and not only that but can convert your old 2-D games to 3-D so enjoy i'll be picking up one!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Yes. Whatever is being watched can be converted and then the 3D depth can be changed. Definetly worth buying.

There is nothing in the manual about 3D so I assume there is no 3D capability. Keep in mind this is a fairly inexpensive unit.

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