[QUOTE="mattmatt32, post: 2518944, member: 751320"] You probably bought a 3D DLP projector. They support "frame sequential" 3D video when connected to a PC with a 3D capable Nvidia graphics card. Now if that PC had a Blu-ray drive and viewing software that supported 3D Blu-ray, then you could watch 3D Blu-rays with that type of projector and PC setup. But you couldn't connect a stand alone 3D Blu-ray player to that type of projector to watch 3D, because the player would output 3D in "frame packed" mode instead of "frame sequential". You can find out more about 3D viewing using a PC and DLP projector here: http://www.nvidia.com/object/3d-vision-requirements.html . This article lists five 3D projectors that will support 3D Blu-ray players (frame packed video), but they start at $4,500: http://news.cnet.com/8301-17938_105-20017374-1.html . This article explains the different 3D projector types in simple language: http://www.projectorcentral.com/what_does_3d_ready_mean.htm .
