Default Converting Your SBS 3D Videos for playing on 3VO

For those of you who have a collection of SBS (side by side) MKV files for your 3D HDTV or whatever...her is the method for converting them for the EVO 3D.

Sorry if this has been posted somewhere, but I couldn't find it.

First use Handbrake to convert the MKV files to .mp4 or .m4v
Instructions here:

Then drop the files in a folder called Video on your SD Card (probably work in any folder but this is what i did).

Use your GALLERY app to browse videos in the folder you created. Play the video. It will look regular (just two pictures side by side) but if you press MENU then VIEW IN 3D...voila...you're watching your downloaded MKV on your EVO 3D.

"The EVO 3D does not like video file sizes over 2GB (the settings in Step II should help insure that the file size is kept under 2GB)"
did any one check this? does it mean I have to split every movie?It can be biger than 2 gb?

I would think most movies at this resolution would be under 2gb... I could be wrong though
