Page-flip for 3D Shutter Glasses (F8)


(this option requires the installation of Winx3D software, the NVidia Stereo Driver,NVidia 3D Vision, a graphics card supporting quad-buffered OpenGL or an NVidia Geforce patched to a 'Quadro').

The images are displayed in page-flipping mode using the resolution and color-depth set in 'Stereo/Page-flip Setup' and the monitor refresh-rate setup in Winx3D or NVidia control-panel 'Stereo Properties/Stereo Setup and Test'.
For Winx3D the alignment test is briefly displayed so that operation of your shutter-glasses may be confirmed and then the image is displayed full-screen. If there is visible flicker, use the monitor's OSD (on-screen display) to check the refresh rate. Anything less than 100Hz will produce flicker, depending on the ambient light conditions.
If necessary, choose a lower screen-resolution.

For 'Quadro's' and similar ensure that you have enabled quad-buffered stereo and overlays are disabled.

If you choose OpenGL stereo and it is not supported by your graphics card, a warning message will be displayed.

If you choose the NVidia stereo-driver, then it must be enabled by its control-panel or hot-key.
Otherwise the images will just be displayed side-by-side.

The alignment may be Reset by pressing the 'Home' key.
The pixel-shift per key-press may be dynamically-set by pressing the keys '1' to '9' for 1 to 9 pixel-shift
