The 3D device industry has long lacked a source for content until now-with this new YouTube on TV app, anyone can view 3D content on a Smart TV. Consumers will now be able to enjoy thousands of 3D videos,-allowing friends and family to more realistically share and enjoy each other’s life moments via YouTube and Samsung Smart TV. YouTube uses standards-compliant video formats to enable the sharing of 3D content with 720p HD video quality across an array of devices, including Smart TVs, Blu-ray players, set-top boxes, mobile phones and gaming consoles.

Much like user-created content helped in the growth of the smartphone market, YouTube’s 3D content for Smart TV service is a testament to the already thriving Smart TV industry. The new YouTube on TV app with 3D will be available on Samsung Smart TVs and BD Players globally more or less now (end of 2011 is the “official” start date).

Engadget gives some examples of 3D content available of the Samsung network.

NTSF: SD: SUV (that’s National Terrorism Strike Force: San Diego: Sport Utility Vehicle) is a hilarious new program from the mind of Paul Scheer (Human Giant) that takes high-voltage procedural dramas to task…force. Look to your left. Now look to your right. Two of those people are terrorists. If you want to learn how to stop terrorism you must clear you schedule and join some of the cast of Adult Swim’s newest show NTSF:SD:SUV, for a special screening, discussion and terrorist prevention demonstration. Attendance is mandatory if you want to live to see tomorrow.

DDD and partners showcase 2D to 3D conversion technology 08:01 06/01/2011

StockMarketWire.com – DDD Group will showcase its TriDef 2D to 3D conversion technology and Yabazam! 3D content library with several high-profile partners at the Consumer Electronics Show, which starts today (6 January). AMD will demonstrate automatic 2D to 3D game conversion using TriDef Ignition on its next generation AMD Radeon HD 6000 family of graphics processors as part of the WIRED ‘Make a Scene’ initiative, while HP will showcase TriDef 2D to 3D game conversion on its recently launched Envy17 3D notebook.

LG Electronics is demonstrating the new A520 15.6-inch 3D notebook PC while Samsung is exhibiting their new 17.3-inch 3D notebook PC, both equipped with the latest 3D capable graphics processors from AMD. In addition to 3D notebook PCs, Samsung will also be exhibiting their latest 3D PC monitors. DDD separately announced that it and Intel would be demonstrating TriDef stereoscopic 3D software with Intel’s new second generation Intel core desktop and mobile PC processors at the show. DDD adds: “In television, Samsung continues to demonstrate clear leadership in the field of 3D TV with the debut of the world’s thinnest 3D Blu-ray player equipped with 2D to 3D conversion. “At their suite at the Wynne Hotel, Quartics will be showing its new SmartCable, an HDMI cable equipped with the Qvu video processor, incorporating DDD’s latest 3D conversion technology. “The Quartics SmartCable allows 2D devices like set top boxes and Blu-ray players to be connected to 3D TVs with the 3D capabilities residing in the cable instead of the device.

“Hyundai will showcase new TV sets with TriDef game conversion as well as content from DDD’s Yabazam 3D content library on a custom 3D video wall.

“Eyewear firm Oakley will also be using DDD’s TriDef 3D game conversion as part of the demonstration of their new GASCAN line of 3D polarised glasses for use with 3D TVs.

“DDD’s 3D technology will once again make an appearance in a mobile handset, with Sharp demonstrating Yabazam! 3D content on the 3D ‘glasses-free’ Android phone that was recently launched in Japan.”

Posted on by

TiVo customers who own a 3D television will be the first in New Zealand to enjoy 3D content delivered over broadband to the TV via CASPA.

The CASPA On-Demand service is available to TiVO owners in New Zealand.

From today, CASPA On-Demand offers 3D content, following a distribution agreement with DDD to deliver 3D content to the CASPA On-Demand platform for TiVo customers with 3D TVs to enjoy. The CASPA offering now includes DDD’s Yabazam 3D animations and short films. In coming months, the CASPA 3D Fun category will grow to include a diverse range of 3D content from DDD’s Yabazam catalogue, featuring everything from animation and extreme sports, to documentaries, indie shorts, comedy and music videos.

The pay-per-view 3D content includes short films and animations, ranging between five minutes to Safety Geeks : SVI at one hour in length.

“We are thrilled to be providing the first 3D video on-demand content over CASPA to all our New Zealand TiVo customers. We are extremely proud that our very first offering is a diverse range of 3D content which allows TiVo customers in New Zealand with 3D TVs, to get a real taste of 3D entertainment.

“It’s been a mammoth year for 3D – even bigger for CASPA customers with a 3D TV! Gone are the days of driving to the video store and paying late fees, CASPA delivers quality entertainment direct to your living room, giving you the freedom to watch what you want from the comfort of your lounge. With the ever- growing CASPA content offering, open to all TiVo customers regardless of their Internet provider, there is every reason to get a TiVo,” said Robbee Minicola, Chief Executive, Hybrid TV.

“Since November of last year, owners of the latest 3D notebook computers have been able to enjoy DDD’s library of high definition 3D content offered at Yabazam.com, and thanks to Hybrid TV a whole new audience of 3D television owners will be able to experience that same quality 3D programming through the CASPA platform,” explained Jay Wiskerchen, General Manager of DDD’s Content Group. “Compelling 3D content like Safety Geeks : SVI 3D is an important component of a successful consumer 3D market and we’re very proud to be working with Hybrid TV to deliver this to TiVo subscribers.”

DDD’s Yabazam content will be available for download via CASPA through TiVo on a pay-per view basis. Prices range between $2.95 and $6.95 and can be viewed as many times as the viewer wishes for 48 hours after the download commences. The Yabazam 3D content will add to the existing CASPA portfolio of more than 475 on-demand movies, 2000+ hrs of TV shows, music videos, artist interviews, concerts and more.
Sydney, Australia, 16 September, 2010 – Hybrid Television Services (ANZ) Pty Limited, the creator of CASPA On-Demand and the exclusive licensee of TiVo® products in Australia and New Zealand today announced that it has signed DDD Group plc (DDD) as its first video on-demand (VoD) content partner to deliver full length 3D content to the CASPA platform, for TiVo customers with 3D TV’s to enjoy. This content agreement marks the first 3D VoD arrangement of its kind in the Southern Hemisphere. The CASPA offering now includes DDD’s Yabazam™ 3D animations and short films. CASPA 3D Fun category will grow to include a diverse range of 3D content from DDD’s Yabazam™ catalogue, featuring everything from animation and extreme sports, to documentaries, indie shorts, comedy and music videos.
The introduction of DDD’s Yabazam content to the ever-growing CASPA portfolio further reinforces Hybrid TV’s commitment to becoming the leading provider of high quality 3D content delivered direct to the TV. In June, Hybrid TV announced that TiVo could timeshift 3D broadcasts and launched the first 3D on-demand content on CASPA to Australian TiVo customers, featuring a range of Disney 3D movie trailers for upcoming cinematic release films. Now Hybrid TV is delivering on its promise with Yabazam content providing TiVo customers with a growing assortment of pay-per-view 3D short films and animations, ranging between four minutes to one hour in length.
“It’s been a mammoth year for 3D – even bigger for CASPA customers with a 3D TV! First we delivered 3D broadcast record and playback functionality on TiVo, then we delivered Australia’s first taste of on-demand 3D content delivered via broadband and now we’re stepping things up a notch by delivering 3D short films, animations, documentaries and more, straight to the TV.
“Gone are the days of driving to the video store and paying late fees, CASPA delivers quality entertainment direct to your TV, giving you the freedom to watch what you want from the comfort of your lounge room. Now you can really make the most of your 3D TV with our new range of 3D full length animations and documentaries that are sure to make you the envy of all your friends. This new proposition reaffirms CASPA paves the way to providing consumers with a strong content offering that satisfies all their entertainment needs,” said Robbee Minicola, Chief Executive of Hybrid TV.
