How to play 3d ripped movies (mkv or iso) in windows with a 3d Projector?

[buzzaro]

I have a 3d Projector Benq TK850i and DLP-Link 3d glasses that supports it.
Also have Media Players - Kodi on Firestick 4k and Potplayer on Windows11 Ryzen PC with Nvidia 3060 GPU

I have ripped 3d movies in Half SBS format in mkv container and also a full remux in ISO container. I tried playing them in both Kodi firestick and Potplayer in windows11 but it always shows in side-by-side dual screen and not overlapped single screen that can be viewed through 3d glasses.

What am I missing? I tried googling and searching through other forum posts but most results are either too old and outdated or not working for me. If anyone has any experience playing 3d content on their DLP projector, any advice is appreciated. Thanks.

is there any toggle on your projector to trigger 3d when SBS is played?

Not physical toggle on the projector itself, but the remote has a 3D button and I tried to click it multiple times but nothing happens.

in my xgimi, sbs works only if I choose 3d from the menu. Hope other members comment.

Did you try with a 3D demo reel or something like that? If you're getting that in 3D, the problem should be in your source material.
I don't have 3D in my projector but I have watched projected 3D played by Pot player. IIRC two settings need to checked. In Video menu >> 3D, "3D mode" set to "side-by-side" and then 3D playback must be enabled in Advanced options. Tryout these options.

Cannot comment on Kodi, but there must be some plugins.

There should be a 3d menu in the projector, set the 3d format as SBS.

As others said, need to turn on 3D mode in projector. Also in plot player there is a setting which need to change for 3D.

In kodi player there's a option to switch 3d mode of your movie. Change to the mode which your projector support
