do you think there a reason the KODI devs arent baking full frame packed 3D into Krypton then?, I know 3d is said to he on its way out but there are still millions of fans of 3d and new movies are still coming out all the time.

ill read about it and tell you exactly why its not done yet.

update: MVC the extension of h264 that allow multiple views is still in early stage and is not incorporated in the main branch of ffmpeg yet.

update 2: Also the multiple frame stucture is not implemented in libavcodec. Explication: 3d stereo is simple since the timestamp (the exact time when the image as to be displayed) of the image is not same. In stereo frame come with the information that describe wether its the left or right image. In the case of a full frame packed 3d image the current code of ffmpeg as to be modified to be able to handle several frame into a single frame. From what i seen every solution they have for the incorporation of multiple frame structure are causing downstream bugs. This mean application that keep their ffmpeg up to date would have a lot of problems updating to the last ffmpeg version. Just to clarify the frame is what contain every information about the image that is about to be displayed. I hope it did help you. Im not the best at explaining things simply. Not everybody have 20 years of experience in c++ like i do.
