I watch via my samsung plasma, and have 2 of the non rechargeable glasses and 2 of the kids glasses. We mainly watch 3D Blu rays, highlights include Tron & despicable me, avoid pirahana 3d(dreadful), and 3D football on sky, which my (6 yr old) son and I particulary enjoy watching together. The masters golf was excellent also, you could really read the greens. Didn't know you could get 3D games on the xbox (I assume this is via download), I'm not signed up to xbox live, so I might sign up and give this ago. We definitely enjoy the 3D element of our system much more than we had expected and friends are amazed by the quality of the 3D image. We just need more content, and for manufacturers to stop tieing up new realeases in packages, excluding those who have bought previous generations of their kit.
Hi Mark, I'd be interested to know how you've got on with your Samsung 3D plasma as I've only seen 3D on Samsumg's LCD TVs? Is there any presents of crosstalk, flicker or panning issues as I've seen this with quite a few TVs from different manufacturers. DVDAudio as a Samsung 3D TV, but didn't say if it was plasma or LCD. As far as the XBox, the games I know of that are 3D are, Crysis2 and the latest COD. I can't remember if you need a download from Microsoft to get these options to work.
Hi Jase, sorry it's took a while.
I would love to say that this set does not suffer from cross talk, but unfortunately it does a little. Saying that it's very minimal, there's none what so ever on the 3D footie with on the pitch action, but a little on the crowd shots. There where no problems on Tron or Despicable me, but piranha was full of cross talk.
Also I have noticed no issues with flickering, which I think is a person issue, by which I mean that obviously all active glasses flicker to produce the effect, but I think you either notice it or you don't. Also I have not noticed any panning issues (but I've not been looking).
A friend of mine has the more expensive 46C8000 and he was round recently and had a demo of a few 3D scences, he was astonished by the lack of cross talk and I have to say a did notice quiet a lot on his set last time I had a demo at his (although I did not say anything at the time to him as he was all excited about his new purchase).
I recently tried the computer generated 3D demo stuff available on the Virgin service, there is one with a helicopter that had dreadful crosstalk and gave me a headache. I think from my experience so far that the material will determine how much cross talk there is.
I wounder if Samsung will do a better / newer version of the glasses that are retro-compatible, unlike the Bluetooth ones?
