3D Surround Gaming - Video Gallery
Well here it is...
After spending more than a week to make this possible it's finally live!!!!
As it is said on the website is still a prototype as I am still experimenting various things.
WHY THIS... ?
... Because of the lack of content !
There isn't any website to stream 3D Videos in Surround resolutions...That's right!!! SURROUND resolutions in stereoscopic 3D,
mainly since it is considered a "niche" market and it also requires a lot of storage space to "hold" a video.
For the last couple of weeks I have tried everything:
- YouTube support 3D Videos up to 720p in Full resolution Stereo3D.
- YouTube's re-encoding sometimes provides poor results.
- YouTube cannot process resolutions higher than 4096 and therefore no 3D Surround.
- 3DVisionLive offers support for maximum 1Gb filesize, 5 minutes length and the usual 720p resolution.
- I have tried a couple of other websites with no success to load and view even a single monitor 3D Video.
Supported view modes
- Single Monitor 2D: Fit whole image to screen or display only the center screen (which is what you would normally see when playing on a single monitor)
- Single Monitor Stereo3D using 3D Vision: Fit whole image to screen or display only the center screen (which is what you would normally see when playing on a single monitor)
- Multi-monitor 2D: by pressing F11 and setting the browser fullscreen
- Multi-monitor Stereo3D - nVidia 3D Vision Surrond: By pressing F11 and setting the browser fullscreen while using Firefox)
Things to consider a.k.a Limitations
- Don't attempt to view the videos using a non broadband connection. (playback will suffer from stuttering.)
- A good broadband is required for this.
- Don't use Internet Explorer as it does not support HTML5 video playback properly. Use Chrome for 2D playback or Firefox for 3D Playback (as per nVidia specifications)
The website is hosted on a "shared" Bluehost server.
Video Playback might also stutter due to server load at peak times. Putting the video on "Pause" for a while might help with in providing a better playback experience.
So...try it and let me know what you think:)
Currently only one video is present for Metro - Last Light, recorded in 3D Vision Surround.
