[yt-users] 3D movies in yt?

[Michael Zingale]

A long time ago I did this with VisIt.  It could output two images from
slightly different views and then you could combine them with imagemagik:

     composite -stereo visit0001.tif visit0002.tif 3d.png

You should be able to get the same effect by rotating the image slightly
and saving a second image.

Note however that getting accurate colorspaces is important, and depending
on how you encode the movie, the color shift may make the 3-d effect go
away.  Again, years ago, I found the following worked:

mencoder "mf://frames/enuc_3d_*.png" -ovc lavc -lavcopts
vcodec=ffv1:format=BGR32 -mf type=png -o wd_576_enuc_stereo.avi

and this needed to be played as:

mplayer -vo gl2 wd_576_enuc_stereo.avi

I can't find my notes right now about the colorspace issue, but it's on the
google.
