Author Topic: Problem with Bluray 3D playback using Barco ICMP Chris Cooley Film Handler Posts: 9 From: Panama City, FL, USA Registered: Feb 2012 posted 01-20-2016 04:30 PM                     The Barco ICMP has an HDMI port spec'd to handle both 4K and 3D Bluray. I can successfully playback 4K content via the HDMI, but can not seem to get 3D Blurays to play properly. Can anyone confirm if they have been successful at playing back 3D blurays? Thanks for any help! Chris  |  IP: Logged Steve Guttag We forgot the crackers Gromit!!!

The first release version with 3D Blu-Ray support is 1.2.2.3. (HDMI 3D support (only frame packed, supporting Blu-Ray 3D).  |  IP: Logged Alan Gouger Jedi Master Film Handler Posts: 501 From: Bradenton, FL, USA Registered: Jul 2000 posted 01-20-2016 08:59 PM                        I recently inquired about HDMI 3D and was told to make sure you have the ICMP clone package, not sure that would make a difference. They did have it working in their Cedia booth last year.  |  IP: Logged Dave Macaulay Film God Posts: 2321 From: Toronto, Canada Registered: Apr 2001 posted 01-21-2016 03:17 PM                     Just have to suggest asking Doremi support... they would know the answer, I think.  |  IP: Logged Alan Gouger Jedi Master Film Handler Posts: 501 From: Bradenton, FL, USA Registered: Jul 2000 posted 01-21-2016 09:31 PM                        Update: New to the latest software drop they added a selection for 2D/3D under HDMI input. HDMI 3D now works. Confirmed by original poster offline. Dave did Doremi share in the design of the Alchemy ICMP.  |  IP: Logged Steve Guttag We forgot the crackers Gromit!!! Posts: 12814 From: Annapolis, MD Registered: Dec 1999 posted 01-21-2016 10:17 PM                     Note...in the release notes, Barco specifies the version of Communicator/Commander that have to be used (minimum) with the version. As new features are added, it is reasonable to expect that older software will not be aware of the newer or un implemented features. I think Dave posted in the wrong thread...there is a Doremi thread going on at the same time as this one so he may have had Doremi on the brain.  |  IP: Logged Dave Macaulay Film God Posts: 2321 From: Toronto, Canada Registered: Apr 2001 posted 01-22-2016 07:08 AM                     Nope, just confused. But - changing it to Barco - the advice stands. The tier 1 techs at Barco support may not have solutions to an alternate content ICMP issue, but they will get you an answer from the people who know. No denigration intended for the often spot-on advice from these forums, but if one has a serious issue with a current product with tech support available, why not use it? And maybe post the solution here...  |  IP: Logged
