Get 3D Blu-ray to play on Gear VR

No doubt that this year is going to embrace massive new Blu-ray movies on disc. Maybe you have purchased some Blu-ray discs in 3D, and got upset because you cannot bring these 3D Blu-ray discs to Gear VR for viewing with 3D effect because it is limited by a sparse content store out of the box without 3D Blu-ray technology involved. If you're looking for an easy way to achieve your goal, you've come to the right place. Just read on to learn how to watch 3D Blu-ray on Gear VR in Oculus Cinema with 3D effect. 



It's important to know that the most VR app for Gear VR or Oculus Cinema supports 3D movies in side-by-side/top-bottom format. To get rid of the trouble with placing them in Blu-ray player and even avoid considering the region codes of commercial BDs, the only route is to rip 3D Blu-rays to Gear VR VR app supported file 3D video type.

See Gear VR Supported Media Formats

.mp4 .m4v .3gp .3g2 .ts .webm .mkv .wmv .asf .avi .flv. In our opinion, .mkv is best, while audio is aac. Only audio which Android standardly supports work and that is AAC and MP3. AC3 and DTS were removed because of high licensing costs. Make sure your movies are in 720p.  

Samsung Gear VR works on the following Samsung Galaxy smartphones: Galaxy Note 5, Galaxy S6/S6 Edge/S6 Edge+, Galaxy S7/S7 Edge. 

Here Dimo Video Converter Ultimate is recommended as a professional Blu-ray to Gear VR Converter. It is specially designed for remove protection from 3D Blu-ray and rip movie from 3D Blu-ray disc and BD movie folder and output SBS, Top-Bottom, Anaglyph 3D MKV, MP4 videos supported by Samsung Gear VR Unit/Innovator Edition, Oculus Rift, Google Cardboard, HTC Vive, Google Daydream View, 3D TV, etc. with best quality easily.

Free Download Dimo Video Converter Ultimate (Win/Mac):

          

Other Download: 

1. Load 3D Blu-ray files

Insert your 3D Blu-ray disc into your 3D Blu-ray drive, run the top 3D Blu-ray Ripper and click “Add Blu-ray" icon to load 3D Blu-ray movies. 



2. Choose output format

Click the format bar to follow “Select Format > Device > VR" and choose Gear VR as output device for playing 3D Blu-ray perfectly.

Tip: Although there is a profile created by the VR video converter application, we can always change parameters by clicking  "Setting" to adjust the video resolution and bitrate to get more compatible format with Gear VR. 



a. We recommend using 1280×720 HD resolution to encode your videos. Higher resolutions will not provide any better quality, meaning you'll waste space and processing power.

b. We also recommend using a higher bit rate than a typical web stream at that resolution, as the pixels in your video will be magnified on the phone's screen. The optimal bit rate is content dependent, and many videos can get by with less, but 5 Mb/s should give good quality. While H.264 is the recommended video coding, H.265 videos can also be played.

c. Note that 3D movies should be encoded "full side-by-side" with a 1:1 pixel aspect ratio. Content mastered at 1920×1080 compressed side -by- side 3D should be resampled to 1920×540 resolution full side -by -side resolution. Full SBS nets you the full resolution in both frames, while Half SBS gives you 960 x 1080 for each frame. On the other hand, the Over/Under format comes in 1280 x 720, with each frame coming in at 1280 x 360.

3. Add 3D effect

Click "Edit" and turn to 3D, then choose "Left-Right" or "Top-Bottom" and click "OK" to set 3D mode for viewing 3D Blu-ray on Gear VR with 3D effect.



4. Start 3D Blu-ray to 3D digital format for Gear VR

Click "Start" button, and the 3D Blu-ray ripper will start the conversion from 3D Blu-ray movies to 3D SBS/TB video. After the conversion, click “Open" icon to locate the converted video files. Then transfer the converted files to your phone in the ‘MyVideos' folder, and then grab some popcorn and start your theatric 3D experience at home!

Take Galaxy S7/S7 Edge as an example and see how to import converted videos to Gear VR:

There are two ways to watch your own video content in the "My Videos" section of Oculus Cinema with Gear VR via Galaxy S7/S7 Edge. First, any movies you record using your Galaxy Galaxy S7/S7 Edge′s camera will automatically appear in the "My Videos" section. The other way is to copy Gear VR compatible video files directly to your Galaxy S7/S7 Edge phone or SD card in any of the following directories: 

On your phone's internal storage (Galaxy S7/S7 Edge): 

/DCIM/ 
/Movies/ 
/Oculus/Movies/ 

On your phone's removable SD card (Card): 

/DCIM/ 
/Movies/ 
/Oculus/Movies/ 

On a PC, your S7/S7 Edge's storage can be accessed from Windows Explorer by simply plugging in the USB data/charging cable – no software is required. On a Mac, files can be transferred to your phone using Android File Transfer (https://www.android.com/filetransfer/), which is a free utility provided by Google. 

When downloading 3D movies, you'll notice that they come in either Side-by-Side (SBS) format, which comes in Full SBS and Half SBS, or Over/Under (or Top/Bottom) format. For the non-techie people, they refer to the resolution of the movies and the way the two frames are separated (vertically for the former and horizontally for the latter).

A Side-by-Side format comes in 1920 x 1080. Full SBS nets you the full resolution in both frames, while Half SBS gives you 960 x 1080 for each frame. On the other hand, the Over/Under format comes in 1280 x 720, with each frame coming in at 1280 x 360.

The Gear VR automatically assumes that all files in the "3D" folder are in the SBS format. If you have a movie in Over/Under format, you must create a text file to have it correctly read. Simply copy and paste the following to Notepad and save it in the EXACT name of the movie:

{
"format": "3DTB"
}

Yes, the quotes are included. So, Over/Under movies in your 3D movies folder should have two accompanying files: the .png file for the poster image (assuming you got one) and the aforementioned text file. Except for that last part which borders on the technical side, watching movies on your Gear VR is a simple matter. All you really need to do is copy your movies in the correct folder and you're good to go.

Tricks to Quickly Open/Import MOV to Camtasia for Editing

MOV is a multimedia format that is used for saving and creating video files. It was developed by Apple for their Macintosh systems. MOV may contain video, audio, animation, graphics, virtual reality, 3D, and text information. This file format is easily manipulated with the right software installed. However, opening MOV files in Camtasia Studio can be frustrating from time to time for the complex video codec of MOV. 

"Your website says Camtasia Studio should be able to import/edit .mov files. The only type of file my Kodak video camera produces is .mov but Camtasia won't recognize those files when I try to import them and I get a 'No available codec' error."

In this article, you'll learn how to edit MOV videos in Camtasia Studio using three methods: uninstalling, renaming or converting MOV to Camtasia compatible video formats.



Method 1. Uninstall QuickTime correctly

With Apple's decision to no longer support updates to QuickTime on Windows the US government posted the following announcement advising users to uninstall the QuickTime software. To avoid the vulnerabilities in the announcement we do recommend uninstalling the QuickTime software.

Method 2. Rename MOV to MP4 and import again

If the .MOV file is encoded in H.264 video and AAC audio that file can be imported and played without the use of QuickTime. If it doesn't import, simply change the extension of the file to .mp4 instead of .mov and try importing again. Any other type of .MOV files will not be able to be imported into Camtasia Studio.

Method 3. Convert MOV for importing to Camtasia Studio

Then what if you need to edit a .MOV that is not able to be imported into Camtasia Studio using the above methods? You'd better find an actual fix. As metioned, a .mov may use different codecs. It could be DNxHD, ProRes, DVCPRO, etc. So, you can't edit a MOV video directly in Camtasia Studio including the lastest Camtasia Studio 9.0.0.

An easy workaround is to change the file extentsion from "MOV" to "a codec" that Camtasia can read more easily (without rendering basically). The codec is H.264/MPEG-1, which ensures maximum editing quality and efficiency when working with Camtasia Studio. To convert MOV files to Camtasia, Dimo Video Converter Ultimate is an easy-to-use yet professional app to achieve your goal smoothly.

Unlike converting MOV with latest updated Handbrake 1.0.0, it is a free-to-try MOV converting application for Windows that features simple and user-friendly tools, functionalities for all your video needs and more video outputs.

It is designed to assist you to convert all MP4MKV, FLV, SWF, MPEG-2, VOB, MXF, MPG, MOD, WEBM to Camtasia Studio with no efforts. It will ensure a perfect QuickTime file importing, playing and editing workflow with Camtasia Studio 9/8/7/6. For Mac users, just get Dimo Video Converter Ultimate for Mac to get th job done.

How to Convert MOV and Import MOV to Camtasia Studio 9/8/7/6

Step 1: Load MOV files to the program

Launch the MOV to Camtasia Studio Converter and click "Add file" button to locate the MOV file(s) you want to add.  



Step 2: Select output format

Click "Select Format" bar and then move your pointer to "Format" and turn to "HD Video" or "Video" and choose MPEG-1 or MOV as target format. Besides, you can also choose AVI, WMV, MP4, etc. if you want to get a relatively smaller output file.

Step 3 (optional): Adjust the video, audio settings

Click "Settings" to fix the frame rate, bitrate, video size, etc to your needs. If you want to edit in Camtasia Studio without having to render the clips while editing, all the frame sizes must be the same as the sequence settings. You can save a lot of render time by making all the clips the same size with this MOV video converter.



Step 4: Start MOV to Camtasia Studio conversion on Mac

Click the big "Start" button at the bottom right corner to finish transcoding MOV for Camtasia Studio. When the conversion is done, you can find the output files by clicking "Open" button on the main interface, then you can import the encoded files to Camtasia Studio 9/8/7/6 to open and edit with ease. Once you've got your video edited, you can export to any codec/container, even to MOV that you'd like for playing and sharing.
