Identifying 3D content

[CBers 7012]

We've had a bit of a discussion in the Samsung TV App forum about 3D content and how MBS identifies it.

 

It appears that MBS only recognises 3D content if there is a tag (HSBS, FSBS, HTAB, FTAB) in the name of the content.

 

The main question that was raised during the discussion was, how does a 3D TV decide if content was 3D so as to auto-switch to 3D mode ?

 

Anyone know the answer ?

 

Thanks.

If it can be done by inspecting the file and not having to tag it, then yes.
