4K OLED for Resolving Full Passive HD 3D Encodes

[Paul H]

Posted the following in the Blu-ray Players and Recorders section, in the is ultra hd going to be like laserdisc be a niche market product? thread, but I feel the subject needs its own thread here:

My only interest in 4K UHD at this point is its potential for resolving full passive HD 3D MVC encodes. A step-up from half resolution passive 1080P sets and backwards compatibility with Blu-ray 3D players. Until then I enjoy full resolving active 1080P display technology.

My next set will be an OLED 4K passive UHD display for the above reason only.

That was the main reason I got my 4K TV. 4K content is nice which you can get it, but the biggest improvement was going from the half 1080P passive to the full 1080P passive 3D... much improved.

It's been an extremely long time since I wrote on OLED panel tech, but one thing I was concerned about in the earlier days was the blue lifespan. Does anyone know how that's come along these days?

This was an ongoing concern for me with my first Sony HMZ-T1, a head mounted display unit having two OLED screens for discrete 3D viewing. The HMD was shipped on 11-8-2011 and to date, I still use it on a daily bases averaging of 2-3 hours a day, with no dead pixels. Bought two more units because of the scare and still have them for backups. Find the HMD to be an indispensable item.

Would love to hear the latest developments!
