It detects its as such "3DSBS movie found" is observed from the logfile, but unlike OpenElec and Raspbmc, the television doesn't switch into 3D mode automatically.

I reported this some time ago but I think it got lost in the noise so I'll bring it up again on this. It can't be XBMC related as other distros manage it fine.

yes I remember the reports. I even have 3d plasma screen to test, but as I have just 3 or 4 3d movies, never was on my personal as high priority - or the other way around - as nobody had clear idea what could be the issue looks like problem for not 1h.

and even doesn't remember that it wasn't switching (could be that I simply ignored that problem). but will at least play 3d movie today/tomorrow to see it again myself and will report back.

looks like for you it is interesting feature so just will ask, RaspBMC / Elec were working from day 1 ok? if not, do you have info / links you remember to be helpful in the solutions? was it settings, was it patch. anything ?

Normally when manually switching to 3D mode, you lose half the screen buttons or status at the top due to the way it renders the image but when it switches automatically, it resizes the GUI controls to that they are visible in their entirety.

OpenElec and RaspBMC unfortunately work straight out of the box. With RaspBMC I do need to enable to allow it to adjust to video refresh rate but once thats done (already set in Xbian by default), everything else just works.
