Hi, I'm a long-time lurker and first time poster!
I have a decent collection of 3D blurays, and I also have nearly a decade of 3D home movies (I bought the erm... massively successful... Sony HDR-TD30 camcorder). I have been able to watch these on 3D panels, but I'm soon going to be in a position to have a projector set up in my house.
I understand that 3D wasn't the commercial success many of us were hoping for, so hardware support has diminished massively over the last few years, and this lack of support is obvious when trying to find a current (4k) projector that has built-in 3D support. When looking for one that doesn't require a PC the choice seems to be limited to the Sony range. Fine projectors but with a correspondingly fine pricetag.
Is there such a thing as a passthrough box that allows a 2D projector to be used with 3D video? I'm thinking it would be a device with an HDMI input for 3D source devices, an RF transmitter to sync glasses, and an HDMI output carrying re-packaged 3D video.
