Using VLC Media Player, you are able to instantly convert 3D Half Side-by-Side (HSBS) movies to 2D; to watch in your 2D screen like your laptop or PC monitor. The method is quick and simple. All you do is crop the movie in half, so that you only get one side of the video. VLC can successfully play 3D SBS video on your PC. Not like other media players, in which the 3D video will appear divided into two frames running side by side and playing the same content, with the help of VLC media player’s advanced features, 3D SBS video can be merged into a single frame and the final output will be in anaglyph 3D.

3D Display Technologies
Generally there are three widely use 3D display technologies, all based on the principles of stereoscopic projection:
- Anaglyph - red/green or red/blue images with glasses filtering out one colour or the other
- Polarisation - technique used in cinemas, with two images projected with different polarisations, a silvered screen and polarised glasses
Also TV sets are capable of producing polarized light; they use interlaced displays for the left and right pictures, the even lines and the odd lines differently polarized (which effectively halves the vertical resolution in 3D mode) - Shutter Glasses - technique used by the new 3D televisions, where each alternating frame represent the left or right views.
How to view 3D videos in VLC
