Thank you!

Is there a way to get full SBS or TAB resolution? I.e. 3840*1080 or 1920*2160? I'll be viewing the files with a VR headset that is more than capable of the resolution.

• Updated: Mkvmerge to version 53.0.

Bump?

Is it not possible to get full resolution SBS video or am I just missing the option in the settings? Is there a command line option maybe?

I've been able to get the result I'm looking for using a series of other programs, but it's a lengthy process. It would be wonderful if I could get full resolution SBS with this program with its more simple and mostly automated process.

Also, I haven't found any other program that gets the subtitles right like this one does and the subtitles this program generates don't line up correctly with the full resolution SBS videos I've been making elsewhere. So it would be wonderful if this would be possible here.

Maybe there is an option to do what you want although I cannot give you any guarantees:

When the conversion is starting (x264/x265 encoding step) stop it (stop job) and go to the temp folder and look for an .avs file (Avisynth script)

Open it with a text editor and replace the line:

return StackHorizontal(HorizontalReduceBy2(Left), HorizontalReduceBy2(Right))

With:

return StackHorizontal(Left, Right)

Once edited, start conversion again (start jobs). This will create a FULL SBS output.

For more info and examples about 3D SBS / TAB scripts see this thread: http://forum.doom9.org/showthread.php?t=170004

Hello,

Got error message below. Says couldn't init. Possibly problem with hardware decoding? I know there was a way to trick into software decoding but I don't remember, rename a file or something like that? Could you advise on any possible solution?

about 1080i resize to 720p

I suggest to improve bd2avchd to deinterlace into 50p/60p, can be very usefull.
