I have Tversity setup. and can stream videos/songs to my phone. i just added my 3D content to stream. (youtube videos. and the select 3D movies i do have converted to work on the Evo3D).. and it'll stream them.. but Rockplayer, won't display them in 3D.. just SBS.. Same with ES Video Player... are there any players out there, that will support the Streaming (From the web). that will let you watch 3D content in 3D?
The playback software has to be programmed to support the 3D display technology this phone uses. As both the EVO 3D and LG Optimus 3D use this same technology, and I'm sure there will be other phones with it coming out in due time, it's only a matter of time before app devs start including such functionality. You may be able to prompt them to do so sooner by sending them a polite email.
Currently, it seems only YouTube and the default Gallery app support 3D video playback on this phone.

Hi all,
I am wondering if we can stream the 3D video instead of downloading it to the handset?
It seems that the streaming doesn't support mp4 (maybe I was wrong, but it showed didn't support this type of video in the player) or the streaming player doesn't have the 3D function?
thanks
Does anyone know a good app that can stream 3d movies on your pc to your evo 3d?? I can't seem to find one. I've tried plex, skifta, gmote and it wont play in 3d. I think the only player that can allow you to play in 3d is the Evo's native video player which gives you the option to 3d. Otherwise you have to place the 3d movie on your phones SD card which takes up a lot of space. So I am trying to store it on my computer and just stream it through DLNA. If anyone knows that would be great.
Try zumocast. Havent tried it for 3d movies but i dont see why it wouldnt work.

I actually had the same thought and tried zumocast but it just plays the movie sbs. I think it must use a default player that doesn't support stereoscopic.

Have you tried from VLC direct Pro? According to the app, you can stream from phone to pc and vice versa. I emailed them about it, but they have yet to respond. A lot of the movie files I've seen are over 4GB, which is the limit for either android or my HTC evo3d (forgot).
EDIT:
Also, MX Video allows me to play all the 3D videos I've recorded. I prefer this app to the native for movies because it has convenient controls using swipe gestures.
Hi all,
I have this movie Avatar which carries the MIME type of video/mp4-3d (refer attachment picture). I'm looking for a tool which can do the same for my other plain MP4 videos.
Why ?
The standard EVO 3D video player can switch to 3D mode when playing a plain MP4 videos on the local disk. But when I'm using the app called "Connected Media" or "Skifta" which allows to stream movies through DLNA servers, I would had lost the option to switch to 3D mode already. However any videos which carries the video/mp4-3d MIME type (Like my Avatar movie) would be successfully streamed via the default player as 3D beautifully.
So here's my question:-
1) Anyone knows of a tool or way to change the MP4 MIME type to MP4-3D ?
Otherwise
2) Anyone knows of a player which allows to stream plain MP4 movies as 3D from DLNA servers ?
Thanks, hopefully its not too complicated to understand what was I posting above.

Solution
So far the only solution was given to me is to RE-ENCODE the movie back to MP4 using handbrake and adding additional settings frame-packing=3) under the ADVANCED tab. With this encoding method, your 3D movies will now be played as 3D mode automatically. Refer screenshot for more details...

Okay before anyone starts flaming me, I did search, but since the phone is called 3d I was getting a ton of posts that had nothing to do with video formats. I know I have seen some good info but I can't find it now.
I am curious about formats. I have done some reading and am using handbrake to convert videos (they are converting as I type), but I think they are going to play side by side. Know I have figured out that if I use the HTC video player, I can tell it to play in 3D mode, but I like Meridian and am starting to like MX. They both play 3D as I have a few videos that it does play in 3D. Question is how do I get SBS videos to play in 3D on these other players.
A primer in 3d formats would be great.

The built-in video records 3d mp4 files, with side-by-side frames. I have tried some video rippers (e.g. DVDFab9) & converters that produce the same thing, but they appear as side-by-side frames, not 3d. What is missing?
Have tried both the built-in video player and MX Player (which properly plays the recorded 3d videos)
Addendum: the native player will play a side-by-side video as 3d if you force it into 3d mode.
Still ... it will recognize the videos recorded by the evo 3d as 3d without forcing it, and the MX Player will too (and it does not have a "force play as 3d" button).
