3d blu ray lag?

[computergeekguy]

Hey guys

i bought a 3d Blue ray. (the kind that is suppost to need 3d tv glasses and 3d blu ray) and watched it with red and cyan glasses and it worked absolutely fine

Except for every 5 seconds or so it lags.

Is this a hardware prob?

I bought a big powerfull computer according to my specs but it still lag.

The normal blu ray works fine.

I went and read and some other people have the same prob.

I was thinking that maybe it was my vid card

It is old but dang is it fast

Any replies? thanks

Your graphics card sounds like the problem. Cards have improved dramatically since the 8800 when 3D movies were unheard of on a computer. What software are you running your 3D movies on?

what movie is it? and what BluRay drive do you have?

If you've got the latest drivers, try reverting back to 260.99. I had some problems with the latest drivers myself while watching some blu-rays with it freezing and jerky playback though 260.99 played them fine.

Also make sure you have the latest firmware for your player.

well the movie is disny's tangled.

My little sisters like it

My blu ray drive is the LG WH10LS30 10X Blu-ray Burner - LightScribe Support

and i belive i have the latest driver for my card and i must agree that the previos driver was crap.

And just if you are wondering my vid card DOES SUPPORT 3D.

i also went and looked at the new tron legacy 3D blu ray and someone had the same prob with an alienware comp

The alienware's i belive are fairly new

Thanks for any replies.

P.S. I am not going to by a new vid card if that is the prob due to it will just be $200 and it will probably be outmoded in a few years anyway :sarc:

any news on this issue. I have Tron 3d and it is unwatchable. It skips or lags ever 5 seconds or so. This is an alienware m17x r3 out of the box.
