The Raspberry 3b + can 1080p SbS and TaB 3D without any problems too.
But I dont want the half resolution. Support the Odroid N2 SBC + Kodi frame packing?
The Pi 3B+ and below do both MVC decode and Frame Packed 3D (not just SBS and TAB) output don't they? It's the 4B that doesn't do 3D?
Thanks for the answer.

There are two or three things required to play 3D Blu-rays.
1. A device capable of decoding MVC video. MVC is the video format that adds the 'second eye' feed to an existing h.264 video stream that contains the 2D-compatible 'first eye' feed.
2. For full resolution 1080p 3D output not using 4K formats then you need HDMI outputs that support 3D Frame Packed video that allow you to carry 2 x 1920x1080/24p streams in a 1920x2205/24p stream.
3. To play ISOs you also need a player that can cope with the specific ISO format used for 3D Blu-rays (which is not as simple as regular Blu-ray ISO)
AIUI The Pi series up to and including the 3B+ are able to do all of the above three things. The 4B currently doesn't - though it may cope with 1 and 3 and allow a 4K output that is SBS or TAB at full resolution IF you have a 3D 4K display that can cope.
Quote:For me is frame packing an output signal with the size 1920x2205 pixel and 24 fps.
The left eye image is on the top.
The right eye image is on the bottom.
Between the both images is a black line with 45 pixel height.
Yes - that is 1080p Frame Packed's format.
Quote:The gpu transfer any 3d movies or other input in this output format.
In some cases yes - you can play HD Half-SBS or Half-TAB (where the file is 1920x1080 but has 960x1080 or 1920x540 resolution for each eye) in 3D frame packed output - and also some systems will cope with Full-SBS and Full-TAB (where the file format is 3840x1080 or 1920x2160 delivering 1920x1080 full resolution for each eye). However I don't think the Pi 3B+ and below can play these FULL SBS and TAB files as they are too 'big' for the h.264 decoder. However you're better off playing the MVC versions anyway - as they will be native quality - and if you are playing media you own, you will have access to the original 3D Blu-ray to source the MVC from.

Yes
Quote:The Kodi display menue (raspberry pi 3 b+) shows only SBS and TAB as output format.
From memory there is a leave as native or similar option. The Pi series up to the 4B definitely had MVC decode AND Frame Packed output - it was a huge selling point for 3D over other platforms that the Pi had/has.
Ask in the Pi forums for more details - or check out the 3D threads here. I tested my Pi 3B I'm sure with my old 3D TV (I now no longer have one)
Quote:My tv and my beamer identify no frame packing signal.
Since yesterday I have also a raspberry pi 4 b.
The Kodi display menue shows the same.
The pi 4 b gpu shoud be have enough performance for 1920x2205 24p.
I thing I must wait also for a new raspberry pi 4 b Kodi version.
The Pi 4B may well have the required MVC decode and Frame Packed output functionality - but the way the new GPU drivers implement various things is still a work in progress. That's not a Kodi issue AIUI - it's more a Pi firmware issue. Again asking in the Pi forum here may be better.
