HowTo Convert SBS to Yellow/Blue using MPClassic

in this post i will show you how to convert specifically Side-by-side and HALF-side-by-side 3d content to Yellow/Blue anaglyph format using a few FREE tools :)

The tools you will need to download and install are : 

Media Player Classic

Avisynth

FFDshow

Pantarheon 3D AviSynth Toolbox

Ok , so you have downloaded and installed all the tools above, now we are ready to configure them !!

Configure FFDshow:-

1) Gotto Start Menu > Programs > FFDshow > and click video decoder configuration

2) Select Codecs and setup ffdshow to use all of the formats that you want to convert to 3d 

    (usually h.264 and xvid will be the main formats you are going to be decoding)

3)Now scroll down to the avisynth tab , and activate it by checking the box

4)Now enter the following into the script box 

c = ConvertToRGB32()
w = c.width()/2
h = c.height()/2
LeftRight3DToYBAnaglyph(c).Lanczos4Resize(w, h)

it should now look like this ... save and close

5) Setup FFDshow audio decoders if you feel its neccesary Start Menu>>Programs>>FFDshow>>audio decoder configuration and select all you want it to decode, this is not neccesary to setup if your sound is already playing fine and you are happy with your current sound decoders, personally i use AC3filter

Now your ready to rock 'n  roll ! .. in 3D !! :D just open your video file in media player classic and if all is well it will be combining the SBS images into 1 single anaglyph video :)

if you still just see the normal SBS image then Media Player Classic is probably not using FFDshow to decode the video, hence now applying the avs script to it , if this is the case see below on howto force mpc to use ffdshow decoder

put on your Yellow/Blue glasses and enjoy :D

Configuring Media Player Classic if it wont use ffdshow to playback video :-

1)Open Media Player Classic and gotto View>>Options to bring up the  Options menu

2)On “Internal Filter” unchecked all Filters

3)On “External Filter” unchecked all Filters and click Add Filter to add another filters

4)Find “ffdshow Video Decoder” and change from “Set Merit” to “Prefer"
