Hi All
Just acquired an Evo 3d here in the UK
4.0.3 sense 3.6 which i assume is updated stock
All working fine except for a few glitches
If using 3d for a while then switch to 2d in the camera the camera view seems to sometimes get stuck in a messed up 3d mode
Almost like in 3d mode with the alignment miles out
This is just the camera viewfinder view It still takes a 2d picture ok but the only way to get back to a proper 2d camera view seems to be to restart the phone.
Also tried to playback avatar 3d with bsplayer
Bsplayer played it side by side but if i then go to the gallery and play avater 3d with the stock video player and touch the 3d button it plays in 3d.
Pause that and go back to bsplayer and it also plays in 3d
The same thing seems to happen with mobo player and mx player
Is there a way to switch these players to 3d without having to trick them
Stu
I'm not sure about the first question, but I think that the stock player is the only one (or one of the only ones) that can switch the phone to 3D correctly.

I was wondering if anyone else noticed that some youtube content says 3D and even displays side by side preview images but still plays in 2D.
Is this a bug? My youtube app doesn't have a play in 3D function like the video player so I can't toggle it. It just looks like a standard 2D video.
Any ideas?. Is this due to me not taking the OTA?
some videos work, some don't.
3D Youtube not 3D
Yes, I noticed this today. In fact, a couple of 3D videos I watched yesterday on youtube that showed up in 3d, are only in 2D today...hmmmm.
Can you view 3D movies in Moboplayer? When I hit the hard menu button, it just locks or unlocks the screen. Is there any way to toggle between 2D and 3D besides on the stock video player?
Nobody uses Moboplayer?
i use it and so far from every option that i've seen you can't as of now. maybe in a later update. oh and menu only locks the screen when a vid is playing
Interesting. Someone in another thread said they were able to view 3D movies but I couldn't find that option anywhere. I really like Moboplayer but that's kind of a deal breaker for me.

I love it too...
But really, for 3d, the stock player works just fine.
You're going to want to convert the videos anyway (most 3d stuff is HUGE without the conversion) and looks great in the stock player.
Mobo works well for your non-3d stuff on the 3vo.

Yea, I've been converting them using Handbrake and most of my full length movies on my 3vo average around 1-1.4 GB.
The stock player is fine but I absolutely love the gestures controls on Moboplayer.
yea the gestures are great. it is easier to fast forward or rewind instead of skipping all over using the little bar crap lol.
So I used mono the other day and happened to click a 3d video and it played in 3d. I haven't checked any actual movies it was just a video I had recorded. Just like to say that incase anyone still cares.

So I know this thread is ancient but how did you get Moboplayer to play a 3D video in 3D?
Nearly all players play 3D, but only if you filmed them with the phone. 3DBD SBS movies work only on 3DVPlayer.

By 3DVPlayer, do you mean the stock video player?

Wasn't the reason other players didn't play 3d video because the meta data that indicates its a 3d video is missing? That would make sense to me because the 3d movies I have don't haven't they 3d label in Gallery and need to be told to play in 3d. Whereas the videos recorded by the phone have the label and are automatically in 3d. I bet adding the proper meta data will resolve that. Haven't tried playing with anything yet but I think I saw someone else suggest the meta data idea before too.

MX video player is my favourite player for all off my 3D movies and it has gesture mode.

moboplayer does play in 3D for me. on ICS at least.
but: you have to play it in 3D in the default player first. then press Home to go back out. Play any video with any other player and it will still be in 3D. Even your camera when set to 2D will be in "3D". This is more of a bug than a solution though. But you'll be able to play 3D videos on any player.
If you want to restore functionality back to your 2D camera (because it still thinks it is in 3D mode) set the default video player to play any video in 2D again and it will be fine.

Ah...that's why my camera was acting wonky after watching a movie in 3D. Is this bug present in Sprint's stock ICS or just in custom ICS roms?

Never knew that. Thanks for heads up. I'll try that when paranoidandroid gets 3D or I go back to swagstr sos rom.

How can I play a 3d video in mx player pro Or any application that can play video with translation
You don't.
You can, but not every 3D video will work with it. The trick is choosing HW and not SW decoder.
I worked for me with a few 3D video's but not the ones I converted myself in Handbrake.

I've tried out handbrake before but I could never get it working. Freemake is a really good free video converter, and it has a bunch of settings, including the ability to save presets (and there's specific options for android, iphone, youtube, etc...)
but back on topic, why would you need to play 3D videos with an aftermarket video player anyway? I've never had a problem with the stock video player, and I've watched Tron, Avatar, and Inception all in 3D (DVD rips from discs I own ) Edit: I get it now, I didn't see you said for translation purposes before. Sorry, I haven't even tried watching 3D video in another video player.
Unrelated note, Inception 3D was the biggest waste of time. Don't bother getting it in 3D if you want to watch it, it's a pointless feature for that movie.
Because an aftermarket player is better. It got features the stock player doesn't have, like it will remember where you left when you stop watching.

Got to agree with that, Inception in 3d wasn't all that, you find yourself scanning the screen looking for the best 3d bit instead of just being wowed by the movie, which isn't half bad.
Avatar, The Smurfs (believe it or not), The final destination (good effect's poor movie), are all decent for 3D, but not too many others, an i'm going from a 47inch LED 3DTV not my phone.
Has anyone been able to get 3D videos (side by side) to play on the Booster Shot RC2 rom for EVO 3D? I attempted to play in stock player and there is not option to force 3D playback. I downloaded MX Player, becasue i was advised that it would play 3D videos as well. It only rendered videos side by side. Any help would be appricated.
So I updated to ICS this morning, have a European phone running on Amaysim(Optus) in Australia.
Everything has been great except when I just tried the camera out
The screen displays 2D mode and 3D mode options(via switch) in 3D.
So 3D mode is fine, but when I take a photo in 2D mode the screen appears in 3D and it's really hard to take a picture. But when the picture is taken, it's 2D in the gallery but all out of focus etc as it's hard to do in 3D.
Any suggestions on how to fix this?
Never mind, a restart fixed it!
I have the same problem. Not only 2D camera is in 3D mode also 2D youtube videos. I think there is problem with default video player,it happen when you play 3D videos and minimalize player.
I had this, and the restart worked for a while but it came back. Eventually I went through deleting stuff I'd installed and it hasn't re-occurred. I deleted- a screen-shot taker, a 3D movie player, (sorry for the vague descriptions!) Astro File Manager (replaced with the superior ES), and, erm, the XDA app! (No offense, but I found it slower and less convenient than just browsing the site.) Hope this helps.
EDIT - movie player was 3DVplayer3.0.1
