Preparing trueColor3D compatible xXx samples for a local adult entertainment show

There are several online video websites who already provide 3-D porn as VOD.
Some decided to support downloads of clips that only play on Windows PCs with NVidia 3DVision and either a 3DTV or 3DLCD 120 Hz and shutter glasses.
Some don't care about preserving colors. They provide anaglyph photos and videos only.
None of them support Mac, none support mobile devices with color preserving methods.

That's why I downloaded some xXx sample clips from 3Dxstar.com and converted them to trueColor3D compatible formats.

I hope to meet some innovative porn producers on the VENUS 2011 in Berlin/Germany to bring adult content to the exploding realm of mobile web.

With the cheap and simple viewers (KMQ for tablets and stereo goggles for smartphones) there's a new market segment.

Contact me privately to get links to the clips.

Pinkau Entertainment brings its showreel to trueColor3D

With the help of trueColor3D 0.97 on OSX the following variants have been converted and uploaded to vimeo :
for 3D smartphone goggles (like the Hasbro my3D or the TOYin3D)
for tablet devices (like the Apple iPad using an over/under viewer)
for laptops and any normal LCD (also using the over/under method).

Find out more about the german team of Thomas Pinkau.
They also have a Youtube3D upload (unfortunately only a distorted, aka frame compatible version).

I hope to also find trueColor3D version on Youtube soon.

Update of trueColor3D on OSX

After having some trouble with the libav parts used in ffmpeg, I found workarounds and now proudly present version 0.96.
I recently only worked on OSX Lion, so for now only the OSX binaries are available.

This version is the first to run without AviSynth, the very powerful, but Windows-only video post processing toolbox.

It outputs clips that can either play YT3D downloads for home use using AirVideo, or to upload your own work to Youtube (yes they play on iPad and iPhone, here are some examples from a beta tester) or even vimeo. You can also use it to prepare 3-D podcasts (testing) or clips to embed in iOS Apps to sell on the Apple AppStore.

Email me, if you need the new features also under Windows that is currently on version 0.94.

Download the source code here.
Download the binaries for OSX here.

Make sure to install both trueColor3D and qt-faststart as well as a decent version of ffmpeg in your path.
I recently explained how to install/build ffmpeg on OSX.

If you find this tool useful, please recommend it and consider opening a flattr account.

New tags for Youtube 3D

Andrew Murchie's overview of the new Youtube 3D tagging.

So now, you can simply upload a trueColor3D made over/under (aka iPad3D) clip of 768x1024 to Youtube and tag it with
yt3d:enable=RonL

This way, it plays on all FLASH-enabled browsers in selectable 3D modes, also plays on iPad using the KMQ or compatible viewers and can be used with StereoPlayer and NVidia shutter glasses.

What's left ?
Okay - for smartphone support you still need an undistorted side-by-side version like the my3D with 1280x480px, also made with trueColor3D.

And for glasses-free viewing on iPad, we still need the GRilli3D1024 layout.
