It's a solution, but re-encoding isn't fun, especially to adapt to a single device. Zidoo X9S remains my box of choice for 3D MVC & 4K HDR, also as it supports auto resolution/refresh/colorspace switching.

I really don't see any reason to rip the 3D movie to 4K SBS. If the display is 4K, the normal H-SBS rip would be upscaled by the display to 4K (assuming the TV does a better upscaling job than DVDFab). A better way would be to rip it to full SBS. I am not sure how full SBS/TAB is handled by the ATV 4K.

For anyone wondering about using an Asrock N3700-itx with Windows 10 and the mvc version of Kodi, it doesn't work (at least for me). After I set everything up and it wasn't working, I found the link (in OP) for the spreadsheet of recommended players and saw it marked as not working. I was curious if anyone knows why it doesn't work? I ask because when flipping the settings in Kodi, my projector goes into frame packed mode and the menus in kodi become 3d, but the 3d mvc movie plays back in 2d within the kodi 3d interface. To me, being a newbee, I would think this means the hardware is capable of frame packed 3d, since the projector goes to that mode and displays kodi menus in 3d?

Also, does anyone know if an Asrock Q2900-itx (j2900cpu) would happen to work with kodi mvc? My concern is there is no hdmi out, only a display port and dvi. Which means an adapter would have to be used. I read somewhere, the adapter is why the new NUCs don't work. I own the Asrock board and was going to set it up/test this weekend, but figured if someone already knew, I wouldn't waste my time.

I'm no plex guru, but I didn't think plex supported 3d unless it was side by side or top and bottom. In other words, plex supports 3d, but only in 2d format, which means you'll have to manually switch your tv/projector to the right 3d mode when playing 3d content. Last I checked, Plex does not support MVC and it does NOT support ISO files either. I don't really think there is any other format for Frame-packed/native Bluray 3d.
