3D Capable? Is the Sony BDP-CX960 unit 3D-capable?
1315414
I've been told it does not work with 3D. I'm presuming the reason Sony is dropping the price now is that a new version is coming out that fixes the gracenote problems (hard to deal with discs that are not on gracenote) AND the next version will be 3D capable. This is strictly a guess, but every other Sony Bluray player is now 3D capable except this one. And since all the 3D movies aren't coming out unitl later this fall...I should just go and put in a 3D movie and see though. Sony's support on this player does seem to be a bit weak.

Thanks for the response. Let me know if a 3D movie plays in this player as I am very interested in purchasing this unit.

Unfortunately, it's 2012 already and still no 3D Blu Ray changer from Sony (or any other company, that I know of) yet...

Same here on 3D support. I'm using my Playstation 3 for 3D Blu Ray, but would really like a Blu Ray changer. I have two Sony 400 DVD changers and really use / love them. Yet, a Blu Ray changer without 3D in 2011 is just short changing the buyer.

Any update on this? I'm looking to buy this unit too but want to be able to watch 3D movies on it.

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

I believe so. 3D is mentioned in this review http://www.tvreviews1.com/LG-42LN5200-HDTV-Review.htmlThis tv may be the newer version of LM3400 from last year which was priced around the same range

Yes. Out of the box, it is set up as non-3D. To get 3-D, you have to toggle to that setting. I have not tried to use it in 3-D yet and probably won't until I want to play a 3-D DVD. Hope this helps.

Hi Shaune Lewis,This was the kind of solution I was looking from a long time and thank you so much for sharing your knowledge and experience thro' this post.I have a Sony BDP S-570 Bluray player which says it is 3D ready and a Viewsonic PJD 6531w 3D ready DLP projector...But I am not able to play a 3D bluray disc (christmas Carol 3D) with this setup from my Sony BD player... Could you please suggest the best option to bridge the gap b/w my Sony BD player BDP S570 and Viewsonic Projector PJD 6531w..?Thanks for your time in responding to the post...

No it doesn't. I can convert 2D DVD's to 3D with my Sony BluRay BDP s790 player. Hope this helps.

Absolutely ! Great picture ,most of my viewing is 2D and I am completely satisfied . The picture is so good it looks 3D in 2D , great depth to the picture.

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.

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.

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.

is your 3d tv on the list of tvs that this device is supposed to operate on? are you running 3d media when testing this?

I just paid $34.96 for my first 3D movie, Tron 3D. My BDP-BX57 gives me the message that it cannot play 3D movies with this player. Why did I buy this 3D player again, not to mention the glasses, the DVD, and the 3D compatible TV? Sony's web site indicated that a "future" firmware update will enable 3D DVD playback. WHEN is this going to occur? And does SONY believe I would have purchased this player if I knew the product was not a functional 3D player, despite it's labeling? So I guess now I have to wait months for the product to be corrected, or spend more money hoping the next product won't be fraudulently marketed.Sony BDP-BX57 Blu-ray Disc Player, 3D-ready with built-in WI-FI

Yes, that is true! i have this projector at 1 year ago with 2 viewsonic active shutter glasses and a PS3 320Gb (move) with the last fw 3.56 for 3D support and NEVER, "NEVER" can see in 3D... grrrrrr!!! i do try softwares to generate 3D with the laptop like Tridef, etc with no lucky... i am an experimented technical user and reading a lot about this think the last thing to do is wait the last presentation of Viewsonic, the VP3D1 3D converter box to use with the projector... is the same of the Optoma 3D-XL, but i hope the VP3D1 are cheapest!sorry my bad english! :)

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

No this model has what they call "3D" sound but is not a 3D visual screen. I believe there is a similar model that supports 3D.

Yes, it does. However, I run 3D through my system from both 3D Blu-Ray and DirecTV without any troubles. The video processor seems to have no problems with 3D with regard to my experience.
