thank you Peter.

yep, that’s the one I use too: StereoMovieMaker. it’s simple and a pleasure to use. sometimes it skips, sometimes it doesn’t. I should figure out what is the factor that makes it skip. maybe we sometimes use too high a bit rate ? anyway I have “less” skips than I used to now that I input @ 1280×720 instead of 1920×1080. so for now I consider 3D more for my native 1280×720 cameras. (longer interval between skips due to longer duration of clip segments). another annoying thing now is that my saved file has no audio anymore, so I have to remix it with the original.

I’ve felt intimidated by the Sony Movie Studio software, but between file conversion chew up and these skips and the missing audio, it might end up being a lot less trouble to just learn a new software.

I’ve been using Cyberlink PowerDirector, and it has its own quirks. when I bought it, it claimed “end to end 3D”. (as long as your camera does the muxing OR you’re only SIMULATING 3D from one camera view.) I’ve been hoping they add a MUXer in the next version, which generally comes out in the fall. if it doesn’t, I guess I’ll get to learning Sony Movie Studio.

PETER: if you have any more tips or info, my ears are definitely open.

Peter,

found any solutions yet ?

I’ve been using StereoMovieMaker, which is FREE, and a very simple and light software. I haven’t gotten other 3D softwares to work.

it works pretty well, although mine seems to skip a bit. don’t know yet what’s causing that.

if you want more info, just ask, and I’ll tell you what I know.

Marc

P.S. the video editor Sony Movie Studio (recent) also has a built-in 3D Muxer. good luck!
