Bluray 3D
Can anyone tell me if this program will play BluRay 3D discs straight from my BD drive? I see it plays 3d VR movies, but can i play an original BluRay discs in 3D format, as there are currently no programs on the market that allow this.

This is my exact question as well. Would love to know.

Any developers care about us enough to answer this question? Do you want to sell your product? I would like to know this as well.

Looks like they don't care, so I definately won't be purchasing this or any other Cyberlink product. Very bad customer care.

I just plugged in a dvd player to my extra hdmi port. Works great and sound goes through my older reciever that I use for sound on my computer. They never would respond to a simple question.

I got version 16 with my blueray burner and it does support 3d playback with a 3d cappable monitor or lcd tv... also if you watch the 1st video it clearly shows 2 people wearing 3d glassing and reacting to stuff flying at them.

I have CyberLink PowerDVD 12, came free with blue-player/burner, it will play 3D but first test by downloading the Cyberlink HD Blu-ray Advisor , it will test for compatability, like if you have a 3D monitor, 3D support graphics card. you need a HDMI lead form graphics card to monitor to support HD-copy-protection, DVI will not work.

But will it play 3D Bluray in a Vive?

Cyberlink HD Blu-ray Advisor will test system and show if it will work
https://www.cyberlink.com/stat/bd-support/enu/index.jsp
It will ask for a name & email, just make it up, like JackONeill at Stargate dot com

I do not believe Vive supports HDCP, I know that Rift for PC does not and yet Rift-go does.
If you look at Cyberlink 17 & 18 states it supports Vive and Rift VR which would make you wanna hit the buy button, but wait thats Youtube 360 video type content and not Blueray.

I sent months looking into this and the only solution/workaround to watch your bought, legally owned physical hardcopy of a movie, cannot be mentioned here.

So Cyberlink for 3D is only usefull if you have a 3D monitor, o and lots of adverts to buy other products from them and buy upgrades. btw its $69 on their site (2018-Jan)

You can test your PCs with "Ultra HD Blu-ray Advisor".

You can check the compatibility with this software for Ultra HD Blu Ray, Blu Ray Disc and Blu Ray 3D.

In my case I don´t have HDCP with more than one screens.

PowerDVD WILL NOT play ANY Blu Ray disk on the HTC VIVE or the Rift, 3D or not. It will only display a black screen on your VR headset. The player only works with 3D monitors which is totally lame. It will only display videos from your HDD and youtube type of stuff on your VR headset. I own a PSVR headset and I watch my 3D BD on my PS4 and it is mind blowing, I can''t even begin to describe how cool it is and give it any justice. I wish there was a way to do the same on PC, but there is not. I just want to thank whoever invented HDCP for that. NOT! It doesn't prevent pirating at all. But, it does a dam good job at causing honest people who do pay money for stuff a ton of headaches.

You are very welcome! I almost did the same thing you did. But then I found out about the iVRy driver and NOLO VR controllers for PC. That gave me access to both worlds with one headset. I can use my PSVR HMD for PC VR gaming and PS4 VR exclusives titles plus Blu Ray movies. The downside is that the NOLO VR part was a royal pain in the ass to get it to work right. But once you get it working correctly is smooth sailing for the most part.
