How do you watch hybrid 3D/2D disks with this Orei blu ray player? So far every 3D/2D hybrid disc won't switch over to 3D.

Usually there is an option on the disc to watch the show in 3d. There are not too many hybrid discs - I know of only one that I have - most movies have a separate 3D disc.Shorter answer - you don't have to do anything on the player. Do other 3d discs work fine? If so, its an issue with the authoring on the hybrid disc, not the player

I've not tried 3-D. I needed a zone 1 & 2 blu ray player. I've never seen a decent 3-D DVD player.

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

Yes, if it is somehow forcing the source to be played in 3D, simply go to the menu and select 3D, the put the type (e.g., top over bottom, side-by-side and automatic) to off. If you are wondering if it will play things that are not 3D, of course it will, it should auto-detect and play whatever the source says it is, 3D, not 3D...so on.

I have viewed 3D Netflix shows, but have not tried to view a 3D DVD through a compatible 3D player. Good luck.

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.

You need an 'eligible' 3D BluRay player for that. To my knowledge, no TV by itself can convert 2D to 3D unless there is a tuner in the unit for that specific purpose.

I have never played a DL DVD (which I would have created myself) on this player but having said that this should be able to play it. Till now it played all 3D blu ray, normal blu ray, dvd, mp3 disc, DIVX disc without any problems.

It only lists the following formats as playable: Multi-format playback: Capability now includes DVD-/+R, DVD-/+RW, VCD, SVCD, CD-R, CD-RW, and MP3 playback for flexible playback options.BD is not among them. I say that because, while I own one, I've never actually tried putting a blu-ray disc directly into the drive. As far as I know, it is strictly a DVD player. I use a PS3 for my blu-ray needs.I would opt for something else if you want blu-ray capabilities.

I bought this tv 2 month ago, but i can not watch 3d movies, every time i try experince 3d i'm receiving a message saying that " 3D EXPERIENCE REQUIRES ENABLED TV & PLAYER", So i'm woundering myself if the tv is really 3d tv or not?, how the tv needs to be setup so as to watch 3d movis?

NO, You must choose to turn 2D to 3D Converting on. Some shows/movies convert better then others.

Thanks Richard! I'll try the reboot first. I almost bought a Roku but needed a dvd player so just got that. So I can hook up the Roku and still have the blu ray player while using the Roku for streaming?I appreciate your advice!

3d blu ray is supposed to show up sometime around the end of 2010. its disappointing because i just bought this TV expecting to buy a ps3 so i could watch 3d blu ray, but i'm second guessing buying the ps3 just so i can watch 3d movies since spending 650 on a playstation for the console and blu ray player seems like a huge waste of money.

Hey all - hate to break this to ya, but I just tried it out on my 3d setup, and this receiver doesn't seem to pass through at all - I've tried it with DirecTV 3d channels, and with my PS3, and if I connect directly to the TV HDMI, it works just fine, but going through the receiver, as soon as I try and view 3d content, there is no dice. Kind of annoyed here, since I bought this receiver about 1.5 years ago, and it looks like now I'll either have to go through the painful process of hooking up 3d devices directly to the TV, or buy a new 3d capable receiver - poop! :( Well - good luck - hope you folks have better luck than I did :(

This will only play content from CD/DVD disks. If the disk says "blue-ray" (which is popular for new HD movies) this won't play it! You will need to look for a player that can play blue-ray disks.

A 3d bluray player will player any 2d or 3d bluray movie, most of the 3d blurays include both the 2d and 3d version of the movies, but not all you have to check, If you want to watch a bluray 3d movie in 3d on your hd66 you must have the optoma 3d-xl.

I have and do; in fact, it's been the best Blu Ray player I've used for a computer. I have a Mac and use a downloadable player. Try Different software; if that doesn't work, it might be a faulty unit.

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