Real-time 2D to 3D

conversion

3D Function

=> 3D was introduced in 1844 with the Stereoscope, a device that could take pictures in 3D

=> The first 3D movie was released in 1922 – “The Power of Love”, Teleview system.

What is 3D?OriginsOrigins

People perceive depth with two-dimensional objects appearing at a slightly different angle to each eye.

The brain processes the two 2-dimensional views, works out the difference between them and translates the information into a 3D image.

Entertainment media with 3D rely on the same technique:slightly different images appear at the same time on the screen, with only one image seen by each eye.

▪ Preparation ▪ How to play

1. Connect Blu-Ray/HTS to the TV

2. Insert 3D Title into Blu-Ray/HTS

3. 3D title is played automatically.

4. Wear the 3D glasses

5. Turn the 3D glasses on

TV can convert normal 2D image to 3D image

In this case, 3D picture quality is not better than watching

the original 3D image.

Using 3D contents is highly recommended to enjoy real 3D.

▪ Preparation ▪ How to play

1. Press “3D” button on Remote

2. Press “ ” on Remote then,

select 3D Mode below

3. Wear 3D Active Glass then power on.

4. To change from“3D” to “2D”, press “3D” button on Remote

then press “ ”

There are two way of watching 3D

2. Available 3D Modes in TV

3D Mode Operation Remark

2D → 3DChanges a 2D image to 3D

Side by SideDisplays two images next toeach other

Top & BottomDisplays one image above another

Line by LineDisplays the images for the leftand right eye alternately in rows

These modes onlyactivate at PC Mode

Vertical StripeDisplays the images for the leftand right eye alternately in columns

Checker BoardDisplays the images for the leftand right eye alternately in pixels

FrequencyDisplays the images for the leftand right eye alternately in frames

▪ Generally, 3D contents are made by one of “2D → 3D”, “Side by Side”, “Top & Bottom”.

So, before watching the 3D contents, the right 3D mode should be selected for better quality.

※ Normally, TV recognizes the Mode automatically, but illegal copies can not be done.

3. 3D Glasses

- Battery and rechargeable type is available1) Turn on

- Set the TV to 3D mode, press 3D glasses power

button for 2~3 sec watching the TV.

- Power indicator LED is blinking once,

then it turns on. (Getting darker like sun glasses)

※ If TV is not set to 3D mode, then the 3D glasses does not

turn on for power saving.- In case of rechargeable type, the cable is provided.

- How to charge

Use USB port From PC or TV

Connector at right bottom

Power lamp is on

2) Turn off

- Press the power button for 2 ~ 3 sec.

- When turned off, power indicator LED is blinking twice.

- Power indicator LED is blinking continuously about

3 hours before completely discharged.

- Then, please connect the cable and recharge.

4. 3D TV NDF Case

▪ Symptom

- The picture is not sharp and flickering

- Double picture image or Ghost image

▪ Solution

Maybe the 3D function is activated but you

can see the picture without 3D Active Glass.

When the 3D function is activated,

if you press “3D” button on Remote,

you can see the message “Quit watching 3D”

If you want to enjoy 3D, press “Exit” button

then watching 3D after wearing 3D Glass.

▪ Symptom

- 3D does not work

▪ Solution

a. Can your external device such as Blu-Ray

support 3D ?

※ The external device have to be connected

with TV on HDMI port.

b. Your title is 3D ?

c. TV is activated on 3D mode ?

If 3D mode, when you press “3D” button

on Remote, you can see “Quit watching 3D”

d. Turn the 3D Glass on.

e. If not fixed, the battery of 3D Glass may

have run down.

g. 3D signal might be interfered with PDP IR

or three wave fluorescent light.

4. 3D TV NDF Case

▪ Symptom

- 3D does not work properly

▪ Solution

- If you change the mode from 2D to 3D

in general mode, 3D may not work as expected

- If the title is 3D but the player such as Blu-Ray

can’t support 3D, 3D may not work as expected.

- Change 3D Depth on OSD or

try to run “Picture Correction” on OSD.

* Go to Picture Menu then select 3D

▪ Symptom

- I feel dizzy looking 3D contents

▪ Solution

- The Samsung 3D TV can turn 3D off

though the contents is real 3D.

- Follow below step to turn 3D off

a. Press “3D” button on Remote

b. Selec “3D Off”

[Depth] [Picture Correction]

4. 3D TV NDF Case

▪ Symptom

- The picture is displayed side by side or

top & bottom as below.

▪ Solution

Change 3D mode to “Side by Side” or

“Top & Bottom”.

Step1. Press “3D” button on Remote

Step2. Select “OK” then select correct 3D Mode

▪ Symptom

- The 3D feature turns off frequently.

▪ Solution

- If turning the TV off then on or

changing your source, the 3D feature

will be turned off though you had set

3D feature to “On”. It’s TV’s specification.

3D Ready TV

3D glasses

(shutter-glasses)

3D TVs display left side image and right side image for time of 50Hz or 60Hz. TV sends a vertical sync. signal of TV on glasses using infrared rays. And Shutter of glasses does action of open/close according to received infrared rays signal. That is, when TV offers an left side image, left side shutter is opened. In opposite case, right side shutter is opened. Therefore, left side image is looked through left side eye. And, right side image is looked through right side eye. Because such phenomenon is produced disparity, we can see 3D image

1. First Checklist for Troubleshooting

1.1 3D Glasses1. Check the batteries of glasses first.

- Check to see if the batteries are low or flat.

The glasses' LED blinks continuously.

=> The batteries are flat. Replace them with new ones.

Press the Power button of glasses and check to see if the LED blinks once or several times

=> If not so, the batteries are flat. Replace them with new ones.

2. Check the viewing range

- Check to see if the glasses is located within the viewing range from the TV

Glasses support 3D function only within the viewing range described in the user's manual
