Support for Microsoft MPEG-2 Video Decoder. It is now the recommended DVD video decoder under Windows Vista.

Fix for Cyberlink Video/SP Decoder. Subpictures are renderer and the 'ActiveMovie' window does not pop up anymore.

An error message is shown when the DVD decoder does not support copy-protected disks. In previous versions, playback silently failed.

Deinterlacing support (drop-field deinterlacing). The internal deinterlacing is not used if a compatible video decoder is detected. In this case, deinterlacing is automatically enabled in the decoder and the internal deinterlacing is disabled.

Improved dual screen output viewing method: If certain requirements are fulfilled, DirectX exclusive mode rendering is used instead of two separate renderers. This guarantees that left and right view never run out of sync, avoids tearing under Windows XP and improves performance. The requirements are: (1) Both screen must belong to the same graphics card, (2) exactly two outputs of the card must be enabled (not three), (3) the resolution and refresh rate must be identical, (4) DirectX exclusive mode must not be disabled in the settings dialog. Version 1.2.1 (September 3, 2007) New option 'Display mouse in full screen mode'. Deselecting this option prevents that the mouse is ever shown while in full screen mode, which is useful for presentations.

The option 'Prefer speed over quality' has been removed.

Fixed DVD playback in Windows Vista.

Fixed 'Sharp 3D Display' viewing method.

New option 'Open Video in Full Screen Mode' for the double-click action in the video library.

Improved support for the Windows Media Center infrared remote control: The teletext button activated the library. The 'previous track' and 'next track' buttons allow to set the focus to the category list or the video list. The 'OK' button causes the same behavior as double-clicking the video (use it with the new 'Open Video in Full Screen Mode' option to launch videos without using the keyboard or mouse). Version 1.2 (August 11, 2007) New '3D Enabled DLP-TV' viewing methods for 3D-capable DLP-TVs.

The new parameters 'manual' in playlist file to prevent that the video starts playing automatically. 'manualblack' additionally prevents that the first frame is shown until the user manually starts the playback (the video window stays black).

When pressing a numbers key, the player jumps to the selected item of a playlist or the selected chapter in DVD mode.

New customization features: It is now possible to select the color of splash screen texts and the player can be restricted to certain displays identified by EDID data. Finally, the licensee of an OEM edition can be specified.

New command line parameter -termendonly. It terminates the player when the end of the file has been reached, but not when leaving full screen mode (as -termend does).

Small improvements to the main window design (less borders when Windows theming is enabled)

Separate option for files and DVDs to enable automatic downloading of metadata from a server when opening an unknown file or DVD. Up to now, there was only one option affecting both files and DVDs.

For files, automatic downloading of metadata from a server is disabled by default. For DVDs, it is enabled.

Fixed File->Reset Parallax command. A random parallax value was set in previous versions.

Fixed default layout: Stereoscopic Player stores the selected layout in the 'Stereoscopic Input Format' dialog and uses it as the default layout for the next file with unknown layout. In previous versions, only the layout selected in the File->Layout menu was stored.

Fixed seeking in OpenGL mode, the image is immediately updated now.

Fixed step forward error which occurred with certain viewing methods.

Hidden feature: The OpenGL renderer can superimpose a bitmap. Version 1.0.2 (February 24, 2007) Fixed jerky playback in live mode. If the graph contains an audio part, the Smart Tee DirectShow filter will be added to the graph now.

Input format selection dialog. It appears whenever Stereoscopic Player fails to determine the input format either from an update server or a stereoscopic information file.

Support for rotated input formats. Rotation can be applied to any supported input format, independently for left and right image, allowing all variations of rotated formats.

New viewing methods for Sharp 3D LCD displays and SIS attachments.

All interlaced viewing methods now use DirectX acceleration. Interlaced pattern creation is completely done on the GPU, dramatically improving performance compared to previous versions. DirectX exclusive mode is used when switching to fullscreen mode. If a NVIDIA stereo driver prior to version 71.84 is installed, it must be disabled in its configuration dialog before using these methods. Else, it would try to convert the 'scene' to 3D, resulting in unexpected behavior and refresh rates.

Automatic DVD decoder configuration: Stereoscopic Player now turns on deinterlacing when necessary. An 'interlaced' option has been added to the video properties dialog. Currently, the Moonlight Elecard and the GPL MPEG-1/2 Decoder are configured automatically. Support for other decoders will be added when the manufacturers reveal their proprietary configuration interfaces.

The NVIDIA stereo driver and quad-buffered OpenGL viewing methods have been partially rewritten to improve stability.

New command to toggle left/right.

New file menu item to close the current video.

Lots of bugfixes, among them a deadlock problem in dual screen mode and issues with Asian language support.

New Brazilian Portuguese translation. Thanks very much to Marco Lopes.

Enhanced Japanese translation. Thanks very much to Masuji Suto. Version 0.9.1 (December 27, 2004) Many people asked for this feature, now it is available: Horizontal and vertical parallax adjustments! In addition, it is possible to crop the output image. Cropping can be specified on the 'Advanced'-tab of the video properties dialog, whereas parallax adjustment can be done in the file menu, too, or using the arrow keys while pressing the shift button.

New menu items were added to allow horizontal and vertical flipping, for left and right image separately. Rotating the image by 180° is possible by activating both horizontal and vertical flipping.

New menu items, including shortcuts, were added to select the preferred monoscopic and stereoscopic viewing method. There were already buttons to do this in previous version, but now you can do the same in the menu.

Improved DVD support: New menu items to select audio language, subtitle language and to jump to a certain title or chapter.

New Spanish, Italian, Japanese, Polish and Hungarian translation. Thanks very much to Ignacio Aldazabal, Daniele Pagliani, Masuji Suto, Andrzej Waluk and Dr. Imre Zsolnai-Nagy. The localization code has been improved: Stereoscopic Player resizes controls automatically, so it is no longer necessary to modify dialogs manually. Creating a new localization is as easy as translating all string of text file now. By the way, a few important languages are still missing: I'm seeking for people who do the Portuguese and Chinese localization but any other languages are welcome as well.

SSE2 optimizations of OpenGL and optimized anaglyph viewing method. On SSE2-enabled processors, the processing algorithms runs more than twice as fast.

There was a memory leak in previous versions which allocated a few kB per second. We tracked it down and fixed it in this version, so that the player is more stable during long stereo viewing sessions.

Parts of the Stereo Transformation Filter have been rewritten. The code is cleaner now and has been prepared to easily integrate new features.

The property page of the Stereo Transformation Filter has been split to three separate pages and has been extended to support all new features. Version 0.9 (September 4, 2004) English, German, French, Dutch and Russian translations. Each translation is stored in a separate language file (plain Unicode text files), so you can easily create a translation file for missing languages.

Preferred DirectShow splitter (MPEG, AVI) and decoder filters (MPEG-1/2, DivX, Xvid, Dolby Digital) can be selected. In addition, the audio output device can be chosen in case your computer has more than one built in audio output device (e.g. notebook with internal and external soundcard).

New graph-building algorithm makes the player more robust against faulty third-party filters. Previously, decoders with highest priority ("merit") have been chosen. Now, the preferred filters are used and no unnecessary DirectShow transform filters will be inserted in the playback graph anymore.

New retinal rivalry-free optimized anaglyph method. It provides bright, pleasingly images. This outstanding optimized anaglyph method is now the player's default viewing method.

New full screen mode covering both screens of NVIDIA's horizontal span mode. The side-by-side output, spanning over two screens, could not be used in full screen mode in previous versions. In version 0.9, you can select "Monitor 1 and 2" in the full screen monitor menu. However, it works only when the dual screen configuration is handled by the horizontal span mode of NVIDIA's graphic driver.

Please note that using the dual screen output method, quad buffered OpenGL method or NVIDIA stereo driver output method is still preferred over the new side-by-side method!

Please note that using the dual screen output method, quad buffered OpenGL method or NVIDIA stereo driver output method is still preferred over the new side-by-side method! Virtual monitor concept: You can specify any region of you desktop as virtual full screen monitor. This allows to output stereoscopic video at a fixed position of the screen, which is useful to integrate video in stereoscopic multimedia applications. Please contact me to get more details on how to create a virtual monitor.

Serial remote control: See http://www.belle-nuit.com/archives/9pin.html for more details on the protocol. A remote control application is available, which allows to control Stereoscopic Player from another PC connected by a null modem cable.

Design improvements: A new icon, following the Windows XP icon guidelines has been created. In addition a splash screen is shown during startup, informing about the player's version and license type.
