Hi,
when i start a 3d film (bluray 3d iso) i have the following choises:
preferred mode (same as movie)
monoscopic/2d
select alternate mode:
disabled
same as movie
over/under
side by side
and some other modes
what is the "preferred mode" and the "same as movie" mode?
which one ist the best mode for watching 3d media? The best option is 3D Full SBS (3840x1080), but i dont know in which mode it is.

Hi, my problem with 3d is when I start a film in preferred mode kodi start the film in over/under and the picture is not so smooth. But when I start the film in side by side, the picture is fine and looks smooth. So I think the side by side option is better. But I dont know if is half SBS or full SBS.

Full sbs and full tab should look identical. Half resolution is a different story. I find half tab slightly better than half sbs.
Resolution of material you can check with media info (not sure whether pressing o in kodi will give source resolution).
For testing you may want to consider buying a Rpi 3. Even with libreelec (which is extremely simple to install), full 3d frame pack works right out of the box. You can even force 3d frame pack output.
Then you now for sure that everything in your setup is able to handle 3d frame pack signal correctly.

(Ps: I'm switching back to PC now as Rpi is not able to handle all sound formats and pq I for 2d is not superb)

Looking at building a HTCP purely for kodi w/3d. Anyone here have experience with the J3455 motherboards? Seems like it could be a really cheap way to setup a 4k nuc, but they seem to be having a stock shortage, and they're not mentioned on the compatibility list either way.
