So I tried to watch a 3D movie yesterday and came across some difficulties.
First of all, I'm running Gentoo, kernel-3.13.2, xf86-video-intel-2.99.909, xorg-server-1.15.0, xbmc-git on i3-3220T CPU with builtin graphics HD 2500. The box is connected to Epson EH-TW6100 FullHD 3D projector.
I have also installed intel-gpu-tools from freedesktop git. The testdisplay -3 -i output: http://pastebin.com/526Kkxjf
I can see that my display switches to 3D mode when running testdisplay utility.
I tried to launch xbmc and run a H-SBS 1080p movie. Xorg log file indicates following detected modelines: http://pastebin.com/iXUfsgpx
Now, when I run the movie, I tried using the side-by-side mode, however the display does not switch to 3D mode automatically and I have to do that manually. I also tried the "Hardware mode", but then I get a 2D picture and display does not switch modes. StereoscopicsManager reports correctly that the movie is 'left_right'.
Is xbmc-xrandr supposed to switch to the correct mode when running the movie? As far as I understand this is either intel driver not reporting 3D video modes to the xorg server or either xrandr not detecting them correctly. Any advice?
