3d works fine if you are using half sbs. I have currently watched Rio 3D, Drive Angry 3D, and Resident Evil 3D all from XBMC running on an old Dell XPS laptop with VGA to the tv. I haven't tried a full sbs but I have heard that it doesn't work.

Few things about 3D movies:

1) Bluray-isos and full-SBS not working (yet)

2) Sub-titles not supported yet in Dharma, but may find their way into Eden?

3) Half-SBS are working, but HW acceleration "kills" the full 3D effect. So, you ideally need to play the half-SBS files with HW-acceleration disabled, which will require you to have a i3 CPU or better

Does anyone know if there is there a way to make XBMC use VLC player to play the movie when we choose it from our list?

Nevermind

How do you disable HW-acceleration?
