3D viewing unsatisfactory. I have Sony Bluray Player (BDP510s) hooked to the TV, &amp; the 3D image is double lined. 3D Glasses dont help. Any suggestion?

Return it. Not trying to be sarcastic the only other thing to do is a reset and see if there are any software updates.

no problem glad I could help..I have an hd66 and optoma 3d-xl 3d set up in my home theater so if you ever need any help just let me know. I'm pretty much an expert on the hd66 and 3d now.

If you have a 3d player hooked up to the unit then the 3d signal will be passed cleanly thru to the tv. Further its only useable with a tv with an arc hdmi input. The 3d player will detect that it is hooked up to the tv thru this audio return channel and then will display 3d. If you have an input set to [on the Sony] something other than the dvd player when first turned on then the 3d player will not detect 3d tv function and might give a no 3d tv detected code. Just make sure input on Sony is correct and trun dvd off and back on and it will then reset to dectect 3d tv.

Sony's simulated 3d is the 2d to 3d conversion. The conversion is OK. It gives a little depth to what your watching on the TV. Obviously the REAL 3d works a whole lot better.

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

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).

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.

You will need to buy 3D glasses, about $20. Plus if viewing 3D from blu-ray the player and disc must be 3D.

I just turned my blu ray player from 60Hz to 24Hz and the motion is more smooth in 3d surprisingly. Without this setting the motion was very blur and uneasy on eyes. My TV is 120Hz, it is LG 47LW5300 and the blu ray player is LG BD645. Thanks Jaeckel, I was thinking of returning the tv and player untill I set this option.

Yes, but "limited"...see Consumer Reports review (from their archives). I simply use my bluray player's smart features instead; I recently upgraded a few of my players...found (on Craigslist) a NIB Sony 5100 and a Samsung 5900 for $50 and $45 respectively...both are fully up to date and 3D capable.

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.

We have the Sony 55" W900 model. We have not seen any of those issues. The picture has been very clear. Our children and grandchildren have also been watching 3D movies with no issues and this group would point it out to us very quickly. I should also point out that I did not know what banding, flashlighting, or clouding problems were, but reviewed the issues on the internet to see what I should be looking for. We have not had any of those issues.

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

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.

I honestly can't remember how I got them to work. I think there is an option in the Optoma menus that state what mode of 3D to use. I happened to find DLP Link was one of the options, but this was after about an hour of messing around with it. To be completely honest I sent these glasses back because of the comfort issue. I ended up going with a model from Quantum. Much more comfortable, and I don't feel like I'm looking under them. Once you get the projector set up properly you won't need to mess with it anymore. 2D movies will play normally and it will automatically go back to DLP Link when it detects a 3D signal. After you get the projector into DLP Link mode, keep in mind there is an 'invert mode' some movies you may need to press the power button once or twice to flip between modes, otherwise the picture looks funny. I can't explain it, but you will probably recognize it when you see it. It's like instead of projecting out towards you it's projecting in away from you. Good luck getting it set up. Again it took me awhile to figure it out, but hopefully you will have better luck.

Thank you for your interest in our products. You can play Bluray and if its 3D this will still work.

I think it plays 3D at 60hz for each eye. It plays 2D movies at 120hz, but if I understand correctly, it splits that frame rate between left and right images during 3D playback. I have a sony Blu Ray player plugged in with an HDMI cable. The resolution is 1080p.
