PowerDVD 9 works flawlessly out of the box... even with cyberlink recommending me to upgrade to powerDVD 10..

I can test the trial.. it expired.. for powerdvd 10... but i MAY upgrade to it just to try....

Power DVD 10 plays it flawlessly. I decided to buy it after finding out that the Arcsoft TotalMedia Theatre 5 freezes randomly during playback.

Today they released the update!

Now Avatar works.

Haven't tested if 3D movies work properly yet but I will in a few minutes!

3D works as well, it finds my TV and initialises it so I don't have to do anything when I insert a 3D movie. That's the way it should work.

Though, something isn't quite right since when I play a 3D movie in 3D it switches to 1000P and it leaves a small border around, something I can't seem to be able to change anywhere.

Don't know if that's driver related. Running 10.10e currently.

It works though, "proper" left-right switching with shutter glasses, a LOT better than checkerboard. Just need to figure out why it goes into 1000p mode and leaves a black border.

actually i think it's a 3D limitation for data transfers and modes...

if what i was reading is right..

Perhaps.

Problem is that I can't make it go into full screen mode, I can't access the overscan setting to make it use the entire screen...

erg...

see i haven't gotten my hands on a 3D blu-ray system yet to really toy with.. i was hoping to get my hands on the newest panasonic projector with 3d and 120hz and image interpolation and all that fun stuff.... but unfortuneately i had bigger fish to fry..

I've love to further assist but short of reading and being unable to test and try and see personally.... i have no more ideas.

Well, it's probably a driver issue. Gonna ask what Cyberlink things about it.
