Wassup everybody. Is it possible peoples? I grabbed a copy of Pirahnna 3d and burned onto dvdr after running thru convertxtodvd but my friend said it didnt look 3d? I wanna get him these movies as 3d but burnt on blank dvds, is this possible or do i need to use blu ray etc? Thanks fellas!

well his dvd player and tv would have to be 3d compatible first, i know convertx does burn 3d mkv to dvd if the mkv is small enough, how it would look on normal dvds i do not know, i have a 3d tv and just drag the file to usb and plug it in to tv, tried doing it once just to see if it worked, burnt it to normal dvd disc (like you are trying to do) put it in my non 3d dvd player/recorder and when i pressed the menu button to switch to 3d sbs i could not highlight it

Thanks alot man.

Do they have to be mkv in order to be seen as 3d or can it be an avi, divx container of 3d movies etc?

I copied a lot of 3D movies just using DVDFab onto an ordinary blank DVD+r and played it on my old TV. It looks like a regular 3D movie with the little cheap glasses that came with the movie.

Yes they were both a non 3D TV and a regular DVD player.

Well I understand what you are saying that it is not a true 3D picture.It looks pretty good though.Although I can only watch them once in a while since 3D movies give me a headache.
