Hi!

I have a video like this:

I also have this glasses:

I have a normal monitor, LCD. How can I mix the image to look like when it's projected in the cinema? I mean, I think there's nothing special in the cinema, just the glasses and the projection, the movie like duplicated. You follow me? How can I watch it on my home?

Thx in advance.

in the cinema they don't use 1 projector normally. They use 2 :p

Really? I never saw it when I go to the movies... so there's no way? I mean, with the image mixed, I can't use the glasses?

You need a 3d monitor xD

But why? Why a normal monitor can't play a mixed image? It's not that hard, right? Just put them together with some software...

You can do anaglyph on a regular monitor, if you can live with eye cancer

You know what I mean, like in the cimena, the screen is simple, nothing special, with a double film projected. So how can I play a double movie on my screen?

So there's no software in the WORLD which can do what a double projector do?

Only if you also have two projectors.

Sorry, don't get it yet. Can someone explain to me easily? English is not my native language...

But you have wiki and google in your own language.

The polarized lenses work with the polarizer filter of the projector or display. You need both but regular displays don't have polarizer for these polar glasses, passive 3D displays have. Other displays and projectors use active shutter glasses instead of polarization.

I've checked in wikipedia but in my own language there's not much info, and it is a lot of technic stuff. I just wanted to be explained easily. What is this then?

It's the result of clicking the 3D button on PowerDVD. So, in simple words, why my screen can show that right?

Thx a lot.

Because your screen has no polarisation filters. Actually it will, but not in the way that works for 3d.

Hi, you might be able to use 3d feature of kmplayer, but I'm not sure though.

KMPlayer will not help; anything besides anaglyph requires a 3D enabled display system. The display needs to be able to display one image to one eye and a different image to the other.
Movie theaters use two projectors with different rotational polarization for either eye. Consumer 3D uses several techniques, the most common on a PC is active shutter glasses which alternate the image displayed to each eye by turning opaque for the other eye (and require batteries). This is really only usable if you have a 120Hz display because a 30Hz flicker in each eye is painful.

Why can't any software do that with a simple screen?

Because polarization is something, that software can't change.

That's so helpful, really, NOW I totally understand it. Thanks a lot for your help :D
