Tru3D Converts 3D for Samsung DLP TVs
$289 kit allows Samsung DLP 3D-ready TVs to support more than PC content.

This $289 Tru3D kit allows Samsung DLP 3D TVs to play 3D satellite, cable and Blu-ray.
Samsung 3D DLP owners can breathe a huge sigh of relief. A new company is planning an inexpensive way to allow those viewers to get more 3D content.
In case you didn’t know, current Samsung DLP 3D TVs can only do 3D PC content. Until now, it seemed like owners were going to be out of luck if they were interested in adding more into that mix. But according to Gary Merson at HDGuru, a company called Tru3D has released a kit that will allow all of those DLP 3D TV owners to play 3D satellite, cable and Blu-ray. Isn’t that the way it should be?
Like Mitsubishi’s 3D DLPs, Samsung’s DLP models use the “checkerboard” format. While Mitsubishi does have a converter kit available to customers, Samsung does not.

It looks like this is just the Gefen HDMI Detective Plus (pre-programmed with Mitsubishi EDID information) with the Mits 3D adaptor. Kudos to them for providing a solution, but those of us with the ability to plug into a compatible Mits set (to copy the EDID into the HDMI Detective) should be able to do the same thing for less money.
