3D using TiVo
Not sure if there is a thread on this, couldn't search for 3D

Having just got a new 3D TV, I just wanted to express my views on it using my TiVo.

The TV I got was a budget Samsung 43” D490 3D Plasma TV (PS43D490A1WXXU)

I have my TiVo connected by HDMI to a Samsung Home Cinema HT-D5530 Bluray 3D player which connects to my TV also by HDMI.

Although it is not Full HDTV, the picture quality is far superior than my old Phillips 37" LCD HDTV (again 720p)

This TV is available for under £400 and is well worth the money if your looking for a cheap 3D TV

Picture looks sharper and more defined than my old one (not sure if this is a normal LCD via Plasma debate) but I wanted to test out the 3D on demand stuff from VM.
The stuff I looked at was very impressive (the VM logo pop-out in particular looked stunning)

Is there likely to be more 3D content coming up on VM, ie ESPN 3D events or similar?
How often is the content renewed on VOD?

Also I need to manually select the 3D viewing option on my TV, will there be any future update to the TiVo that will send a signal to my TV to change automatically when 3D content is played? Perhaps when the Samsung box is out?
