Hello All,

I am having an issue with Blue ray 3d playback on my HTPC.
Let me begin with a short overview of my issue;
I CAN: Play ALL original 3D Blu-ray disks on my system
I have a Samsung 3D TV, LG Blue ray disk drive and an NVidia gfx card set up for 3D.
This all works fine without a hitch on PowerDVD 11 and TMT 5.

As I am not a fan of changing disks and such I have a little habit of creating an ISO of all of my disks and running them directly to Media Centre (I’m sure everyone does this).

The issue:

When I mount an ISO of a 3D Blue ray disk, PowerDVD fires up correctly, I have the screen flick to 1080p/24 and a message appears telling me to "Switch on" my active glasses.
At this point everything looks promising......
once the disk has loaded and begun to play, I get an error message advising that I am required to have 3D compatible hardware in order to play back this disk or it will tell me that it can only play back a 2d version.

What is funny tho, is that I have a documentary that is also 3D and that plays back PERFECTLY!

I am thinking that this might be some sort of anti-pirate type security, but in saying that it seems that a Google search provides me with results of people actually playing them fine!

Please help as I am now lost and disappointed.

....its funny but at one stage i too was able to play them back....
for 2 hours i connected my pc to the internet and then i started getting this error....
possibly a drive blacklist within PowerDVD?

Do you have any suggestions?


I have used:
Daemon tools
VCD
