Re: 3D using TiVo
 

Yes,I will get back to you over the weekend and do a little review of it for you.or PM you as it would be off topic on here. It's a relief to read that the Tivo box should be ok with it though.

I just read a few posts on AV Forum where someone said it is not compatable with Virgin 3D and that there will be a fix for it January 15th :shocked::confused:

Re: 3D using TiVo
 

But they don't say which box they have. Most VM users don't have TiVo.

I've found a user comment on a BBC blog that suggests there is not a problem with TiVo. See comment 40 here

The next non-Sky 3D broadcast that I am aware of is Streetdance 3D which will be on BBC HD at 18:25 on New Years Day.

Re: 3D using TiVo
 

And here lies the problem , lack of content especially if as you say you don't have access to Sky 3D.

Re: 3D using TiVo
 

But even people with Sky 3D could have problems as 3D is not really taking off as some people expected because of the annoying glasses and a lack of compelling content being the driving reasons for low 3DTV adoption and l still see it as a fad that will not last and to be perfectly honest most viewers do not give two hoots about it.

Re: 3D using TiVo
 

I didn't give a 'hoot' about it either till I got a set that was capable of 3d, I now love it, but the lack of content is frustrating.

Re: 3D using TiVo
 

And the lack of content is a big problem going forward for 3D in my mind.

Re: 3D using TiVo
 

l know you are a supporter of 3D but the lack of content must be a worry in the next few years don't you agree.

Re: 3D using TiVo
 

I see 3D as an add on to my HDTV , I personally can't see there being numerous 3D channels for a good few years , just look in the US for proof of that. At the moment being a Sky World subscriber I feel I have access to a decent variety and amount of 3D content which I expect to grow in the coming year.

Re: 3D using TiVo
 

And thats the important thing is for customers to see it as a little extra and if you are happy with it MM then thats fine and dandy by me.:)

Re: 3D using TiVo
 

I'm glad you're fine and dandy he's happy.....

Re: 3D using TiVo
 

Plenty of content on Virgins 3D on demand service.

Re: 3D using TiVo
 

Just been given a Samsung 3D TV as a birthday present from my wife and must say I love the amount of 3D content on demand, but wouldn't complain if we had more !!!

Re: 3D using TiVo
 

How lovely,funny you should mention about more 3D content because I've just been reading that there will be more to come in the new year.
