DLNA, 3D .mpo, PS/3 needs test

Not sure about EVR/MadVR and 3D. I'm going to wait for next year's projectors before even considering 3D for the main HT. Epson kinda blew it this year by removing lens shift from their low end 3010 3D model... although the rest of the spec are very cool for the price.

The big problem is not accepting 3D, its presenting it properly.
No freely available renderer right now can do it, the big problem is that the 3D presentation APIs are mostly vendor dependent - i have some code samples how to do HDMI 1.4 3D rendering for Intel, its probably different for others.

If you want 3D, right now you're limited to the commercial 3D BD players, or that "Stereoscopic player"

I agree about the lens shift.

I have a hole built into my wall for a projector, so I don't have much placement flexibility.

I was measuring last night, and I think I'm within half a foot horizontally and vertically for the 3010.  But even half a foot is enough to skew the image by an inch or two, and I think it might drive me crazy.

I wonder if an nVidia 3d vision based renderer would be hard to write?  It's probably a bit different than a 3d game, because you don't use a z-buffer, but instead just have an image for each eye.

I have to wait for the proper reviews to come in but it appears that the 3010 has a mechanical, rather than digital, keystoning. I've heard rumours that this doesn't affect picture quality as much as the digital variety, but we'll see.
