New LG 3DTV help - Blu-ray Forum

Nerdkiller likes BD · 01-16-2013, 02:32 PM

I just got a new 42' LM615, but I don't think it wants to display native 3D content. I see that there's what I think is the 2D to 3D conversion selection and the up/down and left/right selections, but when I put on a movie that has native 3D content, the last one won't highlight. I also got new HDMI cables and hooked it up to my PS3, so I can probably assume that it's the cables, even though they say that theyre 3D compatible. What say you, fellows?

When you pop in ur 3D movie ur tv should automatically assign the best one to use. A box will pop up and you hit ok. You shouldn't have to mess with anything else. At least thats what happens on my 4700

It didn't seem to be doing that, the last time I checked.

Hmmm did you try it with more than 1 3D movie?

You need to go to your ps3s video settings and enable the 3D. You may have to manually choose TV size, type, etc. the TV will automatically detect native 3D content. You do not push any buttons on the remote to enable it. That is only for 2d-3d conversion, or side by side and top and bottom 3D. Native 3D automatically plays in 3D.

Yeah, after reading what you said (before your edit), I looked up about how to enable 3D via PS3 and came across this video.

So yeah, thanks for that. It was stupid of Sony though to have it this hidden.

Glad you got it! Hope you enjoy 3D as much as the rest of us in this forum!

Just got an LG 6500 LED-Passive 3D TV. Best electronic purchase I ever made. Real 3D content is simply astounding on this TV. Much better than going to the movies! TVG handles automatically all 3D formats; nothing for TV viewer to do but put on the passive (cheap), polaroid glasses and WATCH breathlessly!

MY 3D watching enjoyment has increased exponentially now that I've found a 3D online rental source :3Dblurayrentals.com. For $25.00/mo, I am able to rent up to 10 3D movies each month. Company has no queue system like Big Dogs (Netflix and Blockbuster), but mail out selected titles as promptly as they are available. Right now, 3D titles are slim, but those that are available are simply great! I cannot watch regular Blu-Rays now.

Glad ur enjoying ur 3D tv and movies. I can watch 2D movies but, if I have seen a movie in 3D then it's hard for me to watch that same movie again in 2D. Just not the same
