Not sure what you are asking. 3d blurays use a different system (2 video streams) than pc formats (all side by side). So 3d bluray can't be in mkv.Is stereoscopic player still the only software that can play MKV? What is I somehow rip to ISO? are there any other option for ISO?
Do the legit software like PowerDVD play 3Ds properly?Kodi can handle formatted side by side mkv files, but for perfect Blu Ray rips with full menu functions the best option is ISO files mounted with some sort of virtual disk software played by legit Blu Ray player software.
If you use the method I outlined sure, because it just looks like you loaded the 3D disk into a Blu Ray drive to PowerDVD. It works great last time I tried. PowerDVD has been able to properly play 3D Blu Rays with the right GPU since 2010.Do the legit software like PowerDVD play 3Ds properly?
Not sure what you are talking about, but I do not have a space problem at all. I have a 3D brd, I want to play it on my PC without using the blu ray drive. That pretty much all I am trying to do. I will try Dirigible way...then u may want to also install slysoft anydvd hd and let it run in the background, for mkv, use makemkv software, makes a 1:1 copy, then use the other free stuff to make it smaller
Takes a little time to make it smaller if you have to if space is a problem for you, if not, then you have a 1:1 copy in mkv format.
No problem, ripping is not a problem either. As I mentioned in OP, suppose I have already ripped using makemkv, anydvd or passkey or whatever and end up with a ISO or MVC, how do I play it back? I will probably try PowerDVD and see how it goes... was hoping there would be free player... I use PLEX for everything, I just want to try 3D as I got a new TV, didn't want to spend $$($) for something I will play once or twice.if space isnt a problem, you can use your iso copies by getting slyfox anydvd program, it will bypass the copy protection of the iso, OR you can get the program called "makemkv" and it will make a MKV 1:1 of your disk for free, and there will be NO copy protection at all to worry about and powerdvd will just play it no problem, thats what I was trying to say. Sorry if I was confusing you.
Also, that was really towards the other guy that chimed in and was having problems...Dirigible
Whatever you are running PowerDVD on will run Kodi. Kodi can handle 3D mkvs.No problem, ripping is not a problem either.

Thanks, does this mean that I will have to rip in a certain different way? or convert the rip to a different format? Or that I can play the makemkv output in any of the listed player?They recently added 3d support in madvr[1][2] and LAVFilters[3] for directshow players (e.g. mpc-hc[4]). May want to check that out if you're still looking around.

I'm not entirely certain how the MVC stuff works but I would imagine that whatever you do, so long as it preserves MVC, should be fine.Thanks, does this mean that I will have to rip in a certain different way? or convert the rip to a different format?
