Help! What am I doing wrong? So, I have been using my new Optoma HD39HDR projector for a couple of months to watch Blu-ray's & DVD's, and an occasional UHD, from my Sony UBP-X800 player, with no real problems [some menu delays to be discussed in another post]. Today I finally decided to try out the 3D function. I had been waiting until I got my surround sound set up, but today I got impatient and decided to watch a mono 3D movie, "Dial M for Murder".
The projector immediately recognized 3D content availability from the disc and offered to switch to 3D mode. So far so good. I chose "Yes" and the menus appeared as doubled images as expected. I powered on my new [to me] ZD101 glasses; I got a single LED flash indicating they were on, but the menu still appeared as doubled image, NOT 3D! I tried every setting in the 3D menu, especially the sync. invert, but no 3D! I tried going ahead and playing the movie in case the problem was only with the menu, but the movie played with double images as well.
How do I get 3D images to appear? I'm veey frustrated as this was the main reason I got a projector [3D TV's being unavailable new & prohibitively expensive used]. I have collected dozens of 3D movies and am getting desperate to see them in 3D!
