Ok so i'm just starting to put some of my 3D movies into Plex and play them on my XB1 and so far so good, i did a side by side mp4 and all played great, it's just i had to manually hit the 3D button on my TV remote, not a big deal, but I've been reading a little about tagging the files for Plex to recognize the 3D file but with no luck. I tried the "h-sbs, and 3D" tags and nothing, i'm i naming it correctly (movie.year.3d.h-sbs), Is Plex supposed to show a 3D tag?
Don't think this is currently a feature, but I would like this to be a feature also...
The tags are only specific to the Samsung Client which is a 3rd party client.
All official Plex clients don't see a difference between 3D and 2D.
So the best thing would be is to make a 3D movies category and dump all my movies in there. That would be fine i just thought it would be cool to have that tag and for the XB1 to switch to 3D mode.

I personally have all of my 3D movies in a separate library as it just makes things easier for finding them when I do or don't want to watch one.

Likewise, makes 3D movies easier for everyone to find no matter which platform Plex is being viewed upon. Plus you can remove them for any users whose setup isn't 3D capable.

I decided to do this and worked out great.

Nothing like getting yelled at because the only version I have on the server is the 3D version and someone doesn't want to wait for me to re-rip the DVD version for them.
