reads like this is a more generic issue in a way that Kodi doesn't reset the meta data/settings of the videos properly

Is there a way to circumvent the frame-packed 3D restriction by enabling FullSBS support? At least then there would be no loss of quality involved.

There is no frame-packed restriction as such in XBMC. If you look around here there are windows builds that do it, on certain nVidia cards with appropriate drivers.
What doesn't work in mythtv is MVC decoding, because ffmpeg doesn't do MVC decoding, and XBMC is based on ffmpeg.
There are also instances of FSBS (and presumably HTAB) working on mythtv, and if you look you'll find a thread about that.
The difference between MVC (an encoding technology) and frame-packing (an output technology) is little understood it would seem.

I could try and test, but 3d TVs are LG - are you wanting testing on LG or on other TVs?

Frame packed used to work fine when i added it. You only needed to add a custom resolution with the right dimensions on linux. Ive not followed what have happened since then though.

Is there a particular build to try?

I'm just trying to watch full over under movie (1920x1600), but without any success. I tried:
- remux with setting 1920x1600 in mkv. In this case I have always wrong aspect ratio and wrong proportions.
- remux with setting 1920x1080 in mkv. In this case, aspect ratio is correct but it won't help. When I set 3D as interlaced in Kodi, it converts video to 3d incorrectly (there are many horizontal lines and no 3d effect at all). When I set to over - under and set my monitor to 3D mode over-under, still aspect ratio in 3D mode is wrong. I need to set pixel ratio to 1.20 to get correct video.
So, in summary, for full over under:
- I need to remux it with 1920x1080 size in mkv (why?) to have any chance for success
- Even if I do this, interlaced 3d mode is completly useless (but aspect ratio in 3d mode is ok).
- Over Under mode in this case is useless too, I need to correct pixel ratio manually.
Are you sure that all is ok here? I can share sample for testing (if needed).
[edit]
I just noticed, than I need to remux with 1920x800. But still interlaced mode generates incorrect output (it's actually only a little incorrect, but annoying). I need to use over under mode to get full featured 3d effect. There are no problems like this with regular half ou movies.
