Coming from KODI, there is an option to watch 3D SBS / HOU movies in 2D. KODI simply streches the one half of the movie (SBS right or HOU Top) to the full screen and ignores the other half. This comes in handy, in case one want to watch a 3D movie with more people than goggles are available or if watching a 3D movie via a non 3D capable beamer.
This would be very useful. I’m surprised how very few players have this option currently… It should be easy to implement by simply cropping or zooming the image.
Playing 3D files as 2D
Sometimes I don’t want to watch my titles in 3D, but I do not have the 2D versions. In kodi I could just flip a switch and have the software merge the sides.
