Most likely this is the wrong thread so feel free to point me to the correct location. I got troubles with the new FULL HD framepacking 3D over HDMI feature on my Raspberry PI 2. I tested it using those three 1 minute mkv samples from another thread here ("Gravity", "The Hobbit - Desolation of Smaug", "Thor 2") aswell as using a MakeMKV rip of "Frozen" and some HSBS samples.
With "Settings -> Acceleration -> Use Full HD HDMI modes for 3D" activated all videos play in 2D mode on my TV. If I disable it the HSBS samples trigger the 3D mode automatically and everything works as desired. The FULL HD MVC mkv files keep playing in 2D though.

So far I was just shrugging my shoulders telling myself the TV (LG 55LB650V) is crap and plainly doesn't support FULL HD 3D frame packing as HDMI input. What makes me wonder now is that playing 3D BluRays with the PS3 works. Isn't the PS3 sending the very same HDMI stream (except HDCP) to the TV when playing a 3D BluRay? I guess I'm missing some detail here that everyone else knows, just like usual ;-).

See what tv modes are supported with the tvservice command.

Here we go

Code:

OpenELEC:/opt/vc # tvservice -m CEA
Group CEA has 15 modes:
           mode 1: 640x480 @ 60Hz 4:3, clock:25MHz progressive 3D:FP|TopBot|SbS-HH

           mode 3: 720x480 @ 60Hz 16:9, clock:27MHz progressive 3D:FP|TopBot|SbS-HH
           mode 4: 1280x720 @ 60Hz 16:9, clock:74MHz progressive 3D:FP|TopBot|SbS-HH
           mode 5: 1920x1080 @ 60Hz 16:9, clock:74MHz interlaced 3D:FP|TopBot|SbS-HH
  (prefer) mode 16: 1920x1080 @ 60Hz 16:9, clock:148MHz progressive 3D:TopBot|SbS-HH
