Thread: Wealth TV 3D on Roku

Not sure if this has been posted. I knew Wealth TV was on Roku for a monthly rate of 2.99 but did not know that it is 3D as well.

So how does it look?

I recall Wealth TV from the old VOOM days. I enjoyed it. Might have to buy a Roku box if reports on the 3D quality is good.

It's live at last! (Almost a year later ) I just gave it a try. This is great news!
Basically they have a live 24x7 3D channel and a number of VOD programs. Looks pretty darn good! This is like the Discovery HD channel in early HD days: an eye-candy! Currently it's free, though I suspect they will start charging a subscription fee in the future. Might be worth it though.

I do have a couple of issues: first, it keeps re-buffering for me every few minutes. Not sure if the problem is on my end or at their servers. I suspect the problem is on their end, as Amazon videos play without any issues.
Second, it's a side-by-side 3D. Which means, with my passive 3D TV set, I lose both vertical and horisontal resolution. This still looks better than DVD, but not exactly like full HD. But I will take it! Nice to have at least one 3D channel. I just hope the buffering issue goes away.

I don't have a Roku but I will look to see if it is on anything else like PS3 or Oppo or PCH. Thanks for the update.

I'm not finding their 3d content. Everything looks only 2d. My TV is suppose to support it too, but I don't find any content.

I'm also seeing some of the same things. Lots of stalls and rebuffering. I'm not sure its worth it at this point.

I got it. Nothing to write home about from what I saw. I'll check it out occasionally just to see.

Do you have the glasses, did you set your TV up properly?? Have you watched other 3D content on your TV? Did you download the WEALTH 3D channel? They have a regular channel as well.

That would explain it!
