Selecting a Raster for Stereoscopy

The Stereoscopy feature can be enabled when you select a stereoscopic raster from the raster list. You want to only select a stereoscopic raster if you are connected to a proper stereoscopic device (e.g., Stereoscopy projectors (two projectors or one), or a 3D monitor). Refer to the Autodesk Lustre Hardware Setup Guide.

To select a stereoscopic raster:

1. Click Editing in the main menu and then click Playout.

   The Playout menu is displayed.

2. In the Video Device SDI group, toggle the Video/Graphics Raster button to display GFX/SDI, toggle the format option button to HD, toggle the link type button to Stereo, and select a Stereo raster from the list.
   NoteThe GFX/SDI raster outputs in 8-bit range when you are working in Stereo mode.

Enabling the Stereoscopy Button

Another way to enable the Stereoscopy feature is by enabling the Stereoscopy button. You would enable the Stereoscopy button when you are grading a Stereo project and you are not outputting to a Stereo device. By enabling the Stereoscopy button, it allows you to grade the Stereo footage without having an output device to see your end results (i.e., you have a standard output).

To enable the Stereoscopy feature:

1. Click Setup in the main menu and then click Grade.

   The Grade menu is now displayed.

2. Enable the Stereoscopy button.

   
   

   The Stereoscopy feature is now enabled.

3. (Optional) Click Editing and then click Playout. Within the Playout menu, select a raster from the Video Device SDI group
