Just wanted to request 3D support in Plex Home Theater. Side-by-side, over-under, and frame packed (I guess?) support. I don't really know how to get frame packed videos to work, but whatever. I know that SBS and OU files are obviously just regular movie files but Full SBS and Full OU movies Plex Home Theater doesn't like at all. Also I think an interface that doesn't get destroyed would be cool. Obviously when the 3DTV or monitor detects the 3D format it does what it does but now the on screen interface is worthless as its overlaid in a funky way. Maybe if Plex Media Server could detect SBS or OU automatically, or even a manual tag that lets PHT know its 3D and adjusts accordingly.

&nbsp;

Just a suggestion. Thanks!

I would love to see this, too. Specifically the interface duplication. For instance, if a video is at (1920x2)x1080, or perhaps we do some math like anything above 16x6, Plex splits the interface in two, duplicating on each side of the frame.
