Hi Kodi Guys,
I've got latest xbian installed on a raspberry pi 4 with kodi 18.8
when I read a 3d film that uses SBS format or TAB one (and I have lots that I have used with a different kodi box that work fine), kodi detects that the film is 3d and :
1) The interface changes to SBS (which is what I expect) so I get duplicate SBS interface BUT
2) It then only display one half of the video (I think it it is the LEFT image) In FULL SCREEN.
This means that when I turn the TV to 3D mode It tries to split the single LEFT image into a 3d SBS, which obviously goes wrong
I have tried many parameters, no way. The 3D image is always with one image (left one ?) in full screen ...
Do you have any ideas of what append here ?
Many thanks
I'm sorry, I can't help you with that for now. I haven't used 3d for years, it's just too stupid with the glasses and in my opinion you get used to the 3d effect anyway and you don't even notice it anymore

Your opinion is globally shared, that is why TV do not support 3D any more. But personnaly i deeply desagree. If the film is correclty made in 3D the 3D effect is really amazing. I have tryed both to compare many time and believe me, there is no comparaison... 3D is the real life (we have two eyes ;-) ...)

May be, but how many films shot in 3d are there? You can count them on one hand. and everything else was converted into 3d afterwards. And there are certainly other reasons why the 3d hype is long gone

... but not what the film industry offers you, these are just show effects, nothing more
It seem to be du of that the "RPI4 has a new GPU that needs new drivers.
The 3D part is basically not yet done because the whole driver underlays currently a rewrite to use the linux defaults instead of vendor dependent approaches."
Answers on another site..
It's seem thaht we have to wait ...
Nachteule: Cinema are equiped with 3D projector, entertainement industry make you pay more for blockbusters in 3D..
I think 3D is really not dead ...

I know that. And yes, we still have to wait a looooooooooong time
Not working is (Kodi 19 Alpha)
3D
4K HEVC
HDR
Progress on Pi4 is rather a big step backwards

I don't care. For me it has been dead for many years
Sorry, i don'tt understand all your answer
When you say:
"I know that. And yes, we still have to wait a looooooooooong time

..."
Is that meaning this is not to be in the futur Kodi 19 release (as 3D, 4K HEVC, HDR, ..) ?
Thanks

I think "3D" is a dead format.... Yes when done right (Avatar... and i cannot think of another one TBH) is amazing, but at home not so much ( Auto Stereoscopic screen like the one on the New 3DS XL could be an answer but no major brand tried on big screens AFAIK).
So it appears "3D" support its not a priority for Kodi dev team... 4K HEVC and HDR are probably the ones that will get major attention and support since there are a lot of content using both techs.

It would appear that the development team behind Kodi does not consider "3D" support to be a high priority. Since there is already so much content in 4K HEVC and HDR, these two technologies are likely to receive the most focus and backing.
