Can anyone suggest how to configure a 3D bluray on HDMI with Barco 19B.

We are having passive 3D system X-mirrorand barco 19B which works fine when we operate with DCI content, but the same misbehaves when we are using Sony UBP-X700 bluray system with 3D content, the 3D mirror doesn't come in front ..

Thanks.

I have no personal experience with this setup, but, two aspects need to be covered before this is going to work:

- the Sony Bluray player needs to output the 3D signal in the format the Barco can decode it - there are different methods to format 3D/stereoscopic signals over HDMI
This may also depend on the actual inout you use on the Barco - weither it's the original Barco DVI input, or a dedicated HDMI input on an IMB/IMS.
- the projector macro used for HDMI/DVI needs to be adjusted for 3D operation, so that the necessary control signals are output towards the 3D system

Typically, this involves creating a new projector macro based on an existing one, then modify it's settings accordingly.
