Olympics Opening Ceremony in 3D

[Lao Pan]

Well I have just watched the Olympics Opening Ceremony in 3D that I recorded from BBC HD Freeview on Friday night and I must say that I was impressed I had thought that 3D was a bit of a gimmick - and I don't think I would want to wear 3D specs all the time, being a glasses wearer. The Ceremony was definitely spectacular - pity the Athletes spoilt it by walking slowly I had forgotten to put an hours extra post padding on and missed the lighting of the cauldron and firework display at the end :mad:
On a technical note , on screen display and menus are hard to navigate in 3D mode - how long before NPVR goes 3D, maybe a request for NNPVR (Next Next PVR)

You are so lucky, they didn't give that to us here saying it was too expensive and not enough 3d TV's. I tried to settle and squinted during the 3m Synchronized Springboard this morning but it's not the same thing.

My Vizio is just so-so in 3D but we only have a few hours each day of 3D Olympics. Still, most of what I saw was interesting but the whole 3D thing is not a big deal to me. Swimming doesn't look so great but boxing was kind of funny to watch that way.
