LIST of videos LG Thrill converts to quality 3d

Hello all,
I looked around and did not see a thread like this at all, so I figured we could start one.
Personally I like to store lots of music videos on my phones to watch on busses or smoke breaks. I use a simple YouTube downloader to get my videos. I figure this list doesn't just have to be music videos, but that's all I've tested so far. I will update this post with any suggestions you throw in that you found converted 2d into 3d well. I only have one for the list so far.
MUSIC VIDEOS:
Kanye West-Power
(Just the way the music video is set up, a slow moving picture with the camera slowing zooming out, made for a really awesome 3d effect.)
LMFAO-Party Rock Anthem
(With a lot of what I've been trying to watch, I get a half decent 3d effect, mostly one thing propped forward, this video converted with lots of depths and watching it felt like the video was made in 3d)
If you know of any, do tell.
There's no such thing as a quality 3D conversion, even when done professionally at $100k per minute of footage.
Eh, I get what your saying, but quality in terms of what the phone can do.

So are we talking about GB's new 3D converter or just when you push the 3D button on 2.2 during a video?
I'm just talking about the button pushing. Is there a gb rom that can convert videos? I just bought my phone off a person and it came rooted but I haven't picked a rom yet, any good suggestions? And how does this gb converter your talking about work?

And is your name because you like fight club a lot?

Yeah, TylDurden was inspired by fight club and, Man, I can't stand the 3D "conversion" on the Thrill. I didn't find it useful at all. Yes, GB on the Thrill apparently has a legit 3D Converter for games at least, I assume it works for videos as well.
Yeah, I've found a lot of the conversion to be rather lame, but these videos actually worked well. I'm going to be trying videos soon. I expect inception to do okay, and maybe the green lantern.

Try actual 3D movies on your phone and you'll see what I'm talking about. On second thought don't cause the conversion function will be broken to you like it is for me.

... now explain a little further LOL
How did you get actual 3d movies to watch? Did you stream it from somewhere or have it transferred from a computer and watched in the video player? And what happened to your conversion? Your saying watching an actual video that is made for 3d screw something up with the phone?

Screen - 3D capability?

Has anyone watched the demo video with the fields, fish and mountains etc. Have you noticed that it appears to be 3Dish. Not cinema 3D but the effect is there. Everyone that I show sees the same effect. Some 3D movies (Avatar etc) look great.
Has anyone else noticed this? Is this a software thing or hardware?

I noticed that too! I thought it must have been my eyes playing tricks on me, Sony Mobile Bravia Engine? I'm not sure. Oh well.

Yes, the video looks awesome and definately "quasi" 3D, but it is not really 3D, its a trick in the video editing by slightly changing the perspective point int he video and your eye naturally follows it giving the slight impression of 3D.
where I can find the video?

Slow Motion Video

Hey Guys
I got my HTC One a few days ago, coming from a Nexus 4.
While i was doing research on this phone before i bought it, i saw a video clip on YouTube, where some people were at a party and recording a fire show. They then edited the video and slowed down just the part with the fire. I cant find that video anywhere nor can i remember how to do it.
Guess what i'm asking is how do you put a section of a video in slow motion?
Regards

Doesn't work for me on 4.2.2
Slow Motion = Low Resolution
I saw that HTC video doing a slow motion video of a man doing fire/flame stunt. Actually I was amazed and got excited that I wanted to try that Slow motion feature on my own with something else like... a sprinkler maybe.
So I found one at a park and as soon as I started shooting the video (slow motion video under video settings) WTH!!!! The resolution dropped to something like 768x432 and its a bite pixellated, not true HD (1080p) which I thought I'd expect just like from the HTC video... Yes you can trim/edit the video that's cool but I was hoping for 1080p HD quality
I hoped HTC would come with an update that can maximize its camera features up to 1080p resolution. oh well..

I agree with you. Im not sure if Jaunt did this cold play one but if it's the same guys who did Hobbit VR, Black Mass Trailer etc, they really need to step up their game. The bitrate and the quality of the video is pure crap. I still can't get over it... Even the mongolian hut demo and the circus demo was 10 times better than these.

Just give us a youtube VR player or that supposed Milk VR player, and quit putting 100 megabyte demo videos out At least then its a slim app and we can just watch what we want without downloading the gigs on the phone storage.
wow, Temple Run VR is insane. instant headaches. but oh so cool. love that you can around and see the monsters chasing you. definitely will take a bit getting used to

I thought that demo was way too short for any over heating to occur XD That one measly level was nothing! I wish they had the weapons system like anshar wars too
Haven't tried temple run but now I am interested * -*
Youtube would be great too ; 3;

Musics okay but the video and vr quality sucks. And I wish he covered his damn stomach lol.
Ok, todays, batch of apps are quite cool. I think the quality of the VR from Matterport is pretty stunning. I think the quality of their video is head and shoulders above what Jaunt does currently. Can't wait to see them cover more locations.
Edit: im going to try to find out if we can download more locations from their website http://matterport.com/

Gear VR Games

Hello all,
Was wondering what games that you have played that are a must have.
Thanks
Surprised there aren't responses yet. I find Bandit Six to be very addicting. It's a simple game, but really fun. I just started playing Dragon Front, which is cool game. The graphics are a touch blurry, but I like the gameplay and quality. Then there's always Minecraft, which is so well done it is worth buying a game controller for.
Dead Drop
Affected Manor
Dead and Buried
Face your Fears (fear of clowns? This one is great, Please record video and youtube it)
My kids get a kick out of Jurassic World Apatosaurus
A game I got a lot of people hooked on is Zed Shot If you like zombie shooting games, this is my favorite. :good::highfive:

I was at a very high level on Bandit 6 with almost all of the upgrades on my S7 Edge. I assumed the games were backed up on Oculus. It stinks that all that work is lost and I have to start from the beginning. But it is a fun game. [emoji4]

I don't have a gear VR, but I do have the Daydream. Do they both have the same game selection? I do LOVE that the S8 and S8+ support Day Dream out of the box! I love this puzzle game called Claro. Here's the link: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.superbright.claro&hl=en
Claro was one of the free games I received with the S8, pre-order, free Galaxy VR promotion. I played it once. It looks nice but not my style of game.
