Seeing as the EVO 3D will be out in a couple weeks, i wanted to get a head start converting some of my favorite 3D movies that i own to work on the EVO 3D.
I know the phone is not out and we won't know what will work till the phone comes out. Does anyone have any theories on what will work the best? I heard that there is a code in the header of the movie file that tells the EVO to enable 3D mode.
According to the Wiki the EVO 3D supports these movie formats:
MPEG4 / H.263 / H.264 / WMV
Ive already down converted Avatar 3D to 720P. But i am not sure if this affects the 3D on the movie.
Lets see if we can get a head start on figuring this stuff out!
I was converting fallow this instruction>>> http://www.pubarticles.com/article-...s-on-lg-optimus-3d-smartphone-1298019262.html for LG Optimus 3D. I tryed to find out so many times to do that, but four people confirmed that it's doesn't work. I Want to make sure that phone can run 3d movies before I get it. I do not know why there is no any information that phone can or can not playback movies when we put some on the phone. That is priority for me, Im not so exciting that I can record movie in 3d, The most thing is can I playback in 3d for example movie like avatra 3d or resident evil 3d.
You guys should give DVDFab a try...That's what I use for my BluRay needs

Isn't the type of 3D different on the Evo?

DVD Fab for ripping or conversion?

^^ For both. I've only used it for ripping BD but It has BD 3D conversion as well. Here's a list of what it converts to; AVI, MKV, MP4, WMV, M2TS & TS.
evo 3d records the some way like lg optimus 3d side-by-side *.mp4
Check out the wirefly review thread as it mentions some 3d file format stuff. Says the extension is .mdo

Im also wondering if this is possible. I dont have a 3d TV so it would be nice to possibly watch sports in 3D on this. I dont know.. maybe a recorded broadcast of the NBA finals encoded to work on the evo 3d???
This might work

i have a 3d file in avi, mkv, and wmv. what do you guys use to convert it to mp4 to work on the 3d evo?
yify does some evo 3d compatible movies, just google yify 3d
Before getting the Evo 3D I downloaded the trailer of Uncharted 3, Drake's Deception from PSN and saved it to my computer hoping it would look awesome on the Evo 3D. Now when I try to play it on there, it registers as 3D with the little icon on the gallery, but won't play and if it does it's still gittery 2D looking.
Has anyone tried this before? Theres different 3D trailers for download, and I'm disappointed that it doesn't seem to work

what kind of file is the movie as of right now? might have to convert it to work with the evo3d which one is .m4v and i do believe another is .mp4 but im not sure
the current type is mp4, but it is not the side by side SBS 3D video the image jumps back and forth it seems, if you pause it looks as if you paused 2D video, does the Evo 3D handle other types and convert to viewable on this screen? I can't find much info on what exactly plays in 3D mode on this thing lol
Hello i cant find any 3d games for my HTC Evo 3d. The only ones i can find are the 3d games from gameloft but i cant buy them because they do not support my carrier so if you know any 3d games please post a link to them here.
Email Gameloft about it, they should be able to work with you.
I am basically writing this article to help all those who have spent time and time to buy the best 3d phone and are probably reading STEREOTYPE reviews repeating same things again and again and leaving you in a more complex state that you were before reading them.
I own an HTC Evo 3d and I also own a Optimus 3d and i also own an Acer 4738DG 3d laptop. I spent hours trying to find which of the two phones is best but i ended up buying both. Now this review to help those wanting to buy and trying to choose.
I will NOT go into details available at every other review website. I will only point out features that really matter and are not available anywhere for review.
PHONE SIZE AND FEEL
O3D is definitely not easy to hold. Its light but difficult to operate. The standby button and unlock button is at the top which makes it difficult to use, since this is the button you are likely to use a lot. The phone is lighter than EVO 3d which is an advantage.
Evo 3D is very bulky. and HEAVY. However due to shorter width than O3D it is easier to hold and grip and the unlock plus startup button is more accessible than O3D. My personal choise is Evo 3D for this round. Simply because it is easier to grip, although it is heavy.
3D Capabilities
Evo 3d is NOT a 3d phone. Surprised? Well thats the truth unfortunately. Evo 3d is a 3D camera which lets you take pictures and view them in 3d. NOT a 3d phone. I dont see any intention of HTC to make it a 3d phone as such. The only thing they have developed is a 3d camera ad a viewing screen. There is no 3d conversion as in you would have to manually covert2d pics and videos on your PC before you can view them on EVo which is useless.
O3d is a 3D phone. its a 3d camera, plus 3d interface icluding 3d channel youtube, plus 3d gallery, plus 3d menus, plus 3d application plus 3d games. Hell, it can even convert ON THE GO 2D movies and snapshots in 3D without any external software.
Go for O3d if you want a full 3d phone.
3D Camera Quality
Evo 3D captures stil photographs in 3d format at max 2MP. Video is at 720p. The camera is pretty basic with regular Htc options and only one option of 3d width adjustment. The camera in 3d mode has flash. Horizontal viewing is best. Vertical although supported is hardly noticeable in 3D. 3d Depth is not as cool as O3d but the pictures come up nice and bright.
O3D captures stil photographs in 3d format at max 3MP. and video at 720p. There is no flash for 3D stills or movie which is a HUUUGEEE drawback. The 3d camera is very smart and allows many 3d options like side by side, vertical cuts and other depth adjustments. The depth of 3d pics is better than Evo3d. but the picture quality itself is not that great.
If you operate in a bright environment go for O3d. If not go for HTC cuz flash is a huge advantage. The low resolution of HTC is compensated by the fact that it has flash.
Pre Bundled 3D software
HTC Evo3D = None
O3D = 4 games in 3d, Separate 3d gallery, 3d stuff accessible from LG 3d store which has movie clips and other apps plus games.
UPDATES
O3D is promised by LG to be updated to Gingerbread in October alongwith more 3d applications and 3d interface. LG has a 3d STORE from where you can download 3d videos and clips, free plus paid. Means you dont have to dowload, crop, resize and then somehow make them work on HTC evo3d.
HTC Evo3D from what i have learnt is not getting 3d updates from HTC. It is left to the developers for that.
ROOTING
Both can be rooted.
Volume Rocker
Volume rocker key in both devices is a pain to use. Its so much embedded kind of inside the phone.
Battery
O3D battery lasts for atleast 4 hours more than Evo 3d.
The other stuff is pretty basic. So if anyone is looking for a 3d phone this review may help him.
I have been an HTC fan throughout. But honestly LG has come a long way. I have the LG app files so if anyone interested in porting them to HTC evo 3d that would really be great.
If this helps, just say thanks.

So... Did the LG win the "Updates" part based on promises on adding an update that's been out for months? Frankly it should have shipped with GB. Kindof ridiculous that it didn't...
Also, converting videos and pics on the go doesn't seem all that convenient if the camera can just take 3D videos and pics. Why take a 2D anything and convert? The conversion won't be even half as good as the real deal.
EVO 3D does videos and YouTube in 3D.

The Evo 3D comes with the green hornet 3D at least with sprint, and spider man 3D demo.. how does that not count as 3D content? also as the user above said, we can watch 3D youtube videos as well...
Not sure I can take someone serious with a review that spells "because" with "cuz". Not being rude, just saying :/
And Zook!? What's up son?!

My Evo 3D came with The Green Hornet 3D and Spiderman 3D. It also came with that 3D Games, but I wouldn't really call that one software though.
First of all thanks for the replies.
This guide is not basically to support one phone over the other. Point being whats good in 3D.
Lemme answer few of the posts so far,
Auto 2d to 3D conversion. Well this feature is kinda handy. With a 3D phone in your hand, you have the new camera to take 3d pics but what about your old collection. Do you want to boast off the 3d and enjoy the same pic with 3d content? Well then LG is your choice cuz (because) the phone can do that.
The result is not that bad actually. I remember when i first laid hands on my Acer 5738dg 3d laptop i converted a lot of 2d content. Never liked it. But this new screen concept of without the glasses does a pretty decent job.
I can say this cuz i HAVE TESTED it on O3D. I would suggest someone else to test and say if its that bad or ok.
The games that come with HTC EVO 3d are standalone games available in sprint version. I am talking about sim free versions of both phones. PLUS O3D has a 3d interface from which you can actually use and launch the game.
Lastly, LG promised an update in august and they delivered. I think the gingerbread update is coming in October, but what I am more interested in is the promised development that LG stated that this update will enable 2D games to be viewed in 3D as well. That is what i meant with when i said its a true 3d phone.
I will probably keep both phones till either HTC gets a port of LG 3d interface or LG gets an update for camera 3d flash. After that I will sell one of these.
Meanwhile, if anyone wants a hands on comparison of any feature please post here and i shall help to the best of my knowledge.
BTW someone mentioned youtube? Well when i meant youtube built in O3D i mean a real 3D youtube app. Maybe i need to post a video to let you guys have a look. Youtube in 3d is accessible by adding ",yt3d" to any search. But thats not what i meant.
Any questions are welcome.

I have all apks from LG plus the .dm video files.

This article blows....
My "DU4L C0R3 SH00T3R" shot you down in 3D! -Security Off-
Worst review ever.
Lets wait until O3D get ripped, and all that software, app, and other goodies will be in my rooted HTC (better than LG, and prettier than O3D) Evo 3D as well

You said the evo3D has no bundled 3D content. He was stating "yes, it did" your on the UK evo3D. You must be.. I read that didn't get 3D content.

Converting arbitrary 2d images into 3d w/o the actual physical 3d data is stupid.

You dont call 2 3d videos and 1 game 3d interface or software.
What i agreed with the author of that post was that its not 3d software.
The 3d videos are bundled by sprint not HTC.
In O3D, LG has worked to make it a 3d phone.

Kind of right, but what about for example
Cyberlink powerd dvd 3d conversion, dvd FAB, stereoscopic viewer and tridef.
These are all 3d converters and players and pretty decent ones and trust me they are making a lot of money for these features cuz large public wants it.
Anyways, the 3d conversion on O3D is not bad actually, its good. Not excellent and not at all like actual. but good.

As far as I can find, the Netflix Android app doesn't support 3D streaming on any device.
may just be a matter of netflix needing to catchup with devices, although i doubt it will happen since few mobile devices posses the capability to do 3d. although i wouldn't doubt that one of the developers on here could come up with something.
