Black Border in 3D

#1

Post by joecrow » Wed Jul 23, 2014 9:00 am

I recently replaced the mobo and reinstalled Win 7 x 64 on my HTPC. Everything is working well except for 3D playback. I use PowerDVD 11 for BD (has the advantage of being pre-Cinavia, before anyone asks), which works fine for regular Blurays but as soon as I select the "Stero" mode for a 3D movie it resets the screen and a thick black border appears all the way around.
What is really bugging me is that I had exactly the same problem on the original set up but I cant recall the solution. I know I worked it through with help from a forum but since I find no mention of it here I guess it was the now closed MSGB, hope somebody here can help.

No worries, it just came back to me:-..... just needed enough coffee to kickstart the brain.
For 3D playback the refresh rate is changed to 24Hz but the scaling settings in CCC for that rate were not zero, hence the smaller screen. I just had to select that refresh rate and adjust the scaling accordingly and everything is fine. :thumbup:
