3d Not working.

[coinmaster32]

I tried ordering a 3d movie but got the message "Your display is not compatible with this event".

HUH? I know I don't have a 3DTV, but what about the anaglyph (red cyan) video format? You can use that with all TV's.

 

[Scott Greczkowski]

No that's not a valid 3d format on any system or provider. You need a 3dtv.

What about a 3DTV converter?

Just order the HD, or 1080p event

It may or may not work, but it isn't supported. You need a 3d TV to watch a 3d movie.

That may work but they are kind of buggy.

There is an HDMI test in the diagnostics section of the Vip722k I just got, that actually tests the HDMI signal to the tv receiver letting you KNOW if it's 3D or even HDCP (encryption) capable. I think that's real cool!

Unfortunately my Olevia 37" tv from 2006 says it's neither, and doesn't even have valid keys. Then again, it is going through a 5 port Chinese HDMI switch, so perhaps that's not compliant and the tv is. I'll have to bypass the switch box and test that theory in the next couple of days.

Anyway, maybe this is a tiny bit off-topic, but if people are having issues with a HDMI tv they could try that test themselves, and perhaps narrow down the problem they are having.

Yep, if your HDTV is not 1080P compatible you don't get to watch 1080P VODs either....

I'm surprised not having a 3D TV would possibly surprise you that you are precluded from watching 3D.

Ya gotta consider the source....

NBA League Pass doesn't show a single football game. Is Dish trying to say football isn't popular?

LOL...I had to read that twice.

Only when played by zombies, because us Dish subs down on the farm know nothing about zombies!

Yes that does look like a "COINMASTER" post.

I am waiting for him to bitch his old black and white TV is not displaying color...

It must be DISH's fault!

I've got that problem at my place. Do you think a tech can get it resolved for me?

Or someone forget to mention that you would need to have glasses on.

I swapped out my China no-name 5 port HDMI switch for a Blue Jeans Cable 5 port HDMI switch I bought off of Amazon about a month ago, and just didn't switch it earlier.

NOW, the HDMI test on the Vip722k properly detects my monitors HDCP keys as valid, and everything passes the test perfectly. So, MY issue was the China switch didn't pass the signal 100%. That could also be an issue for others if they have a switch like this in-line, and are having a problem where it should work.
