The movies need to be anaglyph to be able to be seen in 3D using anaglyph 3D glasses ( blue/red ). You don't need any special player to watch them either, just play them off YouTube and put the glasses on.
Now if you expect SBS or TBT 3D movies to work on a 60Hz panel, which the Moto G3 has, then you're out of luck.

Youtube videos with side-by-side 3D will also work.
Only problem is, that on the Moto G 2015 Youtube doesn't offer the "Cardbord" button for switching to the Google cardboard optimized view.
Not sure why this is missing as even on my ancient Samsung Galaxy Tab the Cardboard mode is available.
This might be due to the fact that the Moto G is missing a Gyroscope. Which of course would be totally stupid as a missing Gyroscope would effect some Cardboard usages like 360° videos, but would be no problem for viewing plain 3D videos.

Viewing 3d content on Stereoscopic screens

How do we playback 3d movies on 3d TVs transferred from O3D device to USB for playback on TV.
I tried it but it shows side by side format and not 3d.
Anyone else tried transferring tyhe 3 dmovie to usb for playback on 3d tv or 3d laptops like acer or asus?
Have you activated 3D mode on the phone?
Is there a manual 3D mode on your other screen?
You have to activate 3d mode on your 3d tv and set it to side by side but I think the 3d effect isn't that good on the top and there is major ghosting present

i have 3d laptop with active interlaced 3d.
Now whereas transferred pictures are in complete 3d, the movie is not.
Side by side format as input and output as interaced 3d real 3d works using steroscopic player.
Cyberlink power dvd for example also has an option to select source format and one has to choose side by side as source.
Thanks mate.
JOb done
I don't own a mini to normal HDMI cable so I haven't hooked up my phone directly to my 3D monitor (LG passive) yet but I just transfer the pics and movies to my pc and play them with TriDef mediaplayer or Stereoscopic Player and that works great.
If I 'simulate' hooking up my phone to my monitor directly by opening a movie in mediaplayer classic, letting it play side by side in fullscreen and setting my 3D monitor input setting to SBS the movies look worse, less 3D and more ghosting.
I have a sony 3d tv, hook up mini usb works no problem. quality is not to good of a 46 inch tv (pictures, games)
Just switch your tv onto sbs.
For images rename .jps to jpg, resize to 1920x1080 pixels and view full screen. SBS works perfect then
You dont need to change the name if you are using tridef.
If you are viewing through a normal player you may need to choose SBS and rename as jpg.
But which normal player allows to choose SBS? I only know of Photoshop
My monitor has lots of options to view 3D content including SBS. You should be able to change the extension to jpg and view the SBS file fullscreen in just about any application and then set your monitor or tv's 3D mode to SBS as well. That way I'm able to view pics and movies in 3D without using 3D software like TriDef or Stereoscopic Player. But like I said earlier, the quality is worse that way.
Chances are that this only works when your tv or monitor is hooked up with HDMI.
PUT phone in 3d and your tv in 3d.
I can view on my TV MPO and JPEGS but not JPS. This wouldnt be so much of an issue if the LG 3D TV i have didnt keep turning the 3 off every time i switch photo's.
Any work around for this?
Anyone have any advice on Evo 3d to LG Passive 3d monitor, such as the d2342p? It seems the LG 3d Monitor is interleaved by row; whereas the parallax barrier e3d / evo 3d / 3vo is interleaved columns... I'm thinking that the LG Optimus 3d is the same as the evo 3d...
I'd love to be able to hookup the optimus3d or the Evo3d with the LG cinema 3d / d2342p / LG 3dmonitor, but am not having any luck yet.
Any advice greatly appreciated.
I was wondering, if the youtube app has it locked into this interleaved columns to work with the glasses-free parallax barrier; could one instead access youtube.com on the browser, and select the 3d option on a yt3d enabled type video and just set it to "row interleaved" and see if that works?
Going to be giving that a try tonight.

[Feature request] Half SBS Side-by-side playback for 2D videos

Now that Google has released Cardboard, I would love a feature to render regular videos the same way 3D Half SBS is rendered.
Obviously it won't create any 3D effect but it would still give the big screen cinema effect when using Cardboard or Durovis Dive for example.
There is already an app called "Side-By-Side Video Player" but it can't play any of my x264 MKVs, so if MX started supporting this, that'd be great!
Same here, I 3d-printed a Durovis Dive and with Changed Aspect Ratio its cool to watch side by side movies.
If there was an option to double a normal 2D video, would enable me to watch normal movies for instance on a plane like being in a movie theatre.
And by the way, the format after the conversion (double) would be side by side, not half-sbs.
Thanks in advance,
seas

That's not really related, he wants conversion for different types of 3D standards, Side-by-side vs Over-under.
Over-under videos look like this: http://www.tweaking4all.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/10/3d_top_and_bottom_example.jpg
VR glasses like Cardboard and Durovis Dive require the video to be Side-by-side.
What seas1 and I are requesting is simply an option to render the same frame twice, Side-by-side.
Ah, well, this seems on appearance to be a simple implementation, the "hard" part would be to crop it for left vs right eye. Let's see what the dev's got to say about this.
Hi everyone, please post/repost your question/request/comment on the new Sticky thread on this topic. This way, it's more organized and we can more easily get visibility and discussion on this topic.

[Q] HD Video live wallpaper app?

Hi all
i'm after a live wallpaper App that can display an HD video as the background.
I have tried the 'Video live wallpaper' app. but anything above 480p gives low frame rate.
i get the feeling the app's not optimized to use full potential of Shield GPU.
The video i'm hoping to use is is from NASA Goddard. a 5 year time laps of the sun with different filters and optics.
(cant post link, new member. Can be found on youtube: "NASA | SDO: Year 5")
some beautiful colour's, i'm sure the Shield could do a wonderful job with it.
anyone know of any Video wallpaper apps could play this video in 1080p or 720p ?
many thanks

Any In Depth guides on how to use VR with the XZ Premium for 4K Content?

With a 4K display, I wonder why there are only 2 threads asking about VR, (one opened by me) and why there are no guides at all? I mean there are lot of people who would like to buy for VR but don't wanna risk it because there are no proper information.
All i could gather is:
- you have first to change the native resolution of your android to 4K, for APPS.
- MXplayer shows 4K content. (I guess). and so does youtube. But still no one definitely answer is you can watch 4k 3D 360 videos with this device.
- Most apps dont support 4K so forget games in 4K. But no one says if the phone at least support 2k VR.
- Also no much information on which Headset is best compatible with this device.
- It is said everywhere that the LCD Screen response time is not fast enough for VR. Is this the same for videos, or is it just for games? Or is it even as big of a deal as they make it sound?
Aren't there any VR enthusiast who also has purchased a 4K display phone who could maybe clear some questions?
tnx
I can confirm that YouTube, MX Player, VLC and VRTV Player display 4K properly. For more information see my post in another thread.
And I was able to watch this YouTube video in 360° 3D mode with 2160s60 quality without any issue.

This is a big factor that's got me interested in the XZP. Give Car's VR player a try. It seems to play videos for me that other VR video apps won't but I'm still on my Le Pro 3 so I can't test 4k myself. It's my go to headset video watching app (I like watching shows and movies this way). If it supports 4k, that'd be amazing!
