Unleash the Power of Off-Line Conversion

Stream to 3D also empowers you with off-line conversion capabilities. Convert your 2D videos to 3D one at a time or in batch mode, allowing you to unleash the full potential of your video library. Play on-the-fly converted videos while the off-line conversion takes place in the background, maximising the utilisation of the resources of your machine to deliver the highest quality results. Off-line conversion also supports subtitles as well as videos with multiple audio tracks.

Designed for the VR Community and Beyond

Although providing full support for generalised 2D to 3D video conversion tasks, Stream to 3D has been crafted with particular attention to the needs of the VR community. We understand your desire for unparalleled experiences, and our software is optimised to work seamlessly with popular VR media player applications such as BigScreen, Virtual Desktop, Sky Box VR Player and Pigasus (to name but a few). Combine Stream to 3D with PCVR media players like MPC-HC, PotPlayer, or VLC, and unlock a world of 3D possibilities.

Handle Any Resolution Video

There are no software imposed limits on the resolution of the 2D input video and 3D output. A modest PCVR setup can easily handle 1080p conversion to 3D Full SBS output in real-time, 4K conversion to 3D in real-time is also possible with some parameter tuning.  

Frame Rate Conversion

3D output is generated at 24 FPS by default, but Stream to 3D can support output frame rates at up to 120 FPS, with a range of standard frame rates in between; 30, 48 and 60. Frame rate conversion is a resource intensive activity, but on a modest 3060 GPU based laptop (for example), real-time conversion frame rates of 48 FPS on 1080p input with HSBS 3D output is quite achievable. Obviously, unless you have a beast of a machine, the higher frame rates would be more appropriate to apply in off-line conversion.

Seamless Integration with VR Headsets

Stream to 3D makes it effortless to enjoy your favourite content in stunning 3D on VR headsets. Simply download the Stream to 3D PC Windows application, open your 2D video file (with support for a wide range of formats, including .mkv and .mp4), and witness your videos transform into breathtaking 3D experiences. Whether you're using Virtual Desktop, BigScreen or streaming to an on-headset media player such as Pigasus, Stream to 3D seamlessly integrates with your setup, offering unmatched visual quality.

Unleash the Power of Off-Line Conversion

Stream to 3D not only excels in real-time conversion but also empowers you with off-line conversion capabilities. Convert your 2D videos to 3D one at a time or in batch mode, allowing you to unleash the full potential of your video library. Play on-the-fly converted videos while the off-line conversion takes place in the background, maximising the utilisation of the resources of your machine to deliver the highest quality results.

Customisation and Preset Configurations

Create your own configurations for specific scenarios or choose from out-of-the-box presets designed for your favourite 3D media playback solution.
