Watch 3D without Glasses

| comments (17)

3D is the new technology of the video. But they require you to wear expensive glasses to view them. Would you like to view 3D videos without glasses?As the topic suggest you do need to have 3D glasses to view 3D. So what do you need? Actually you don’t need anything except a colour display. :PBefore we continue here is a brief introduction to what we are doing. Strongly suggest you to read before you continue.
3D photography and videos also known as Stereo videos and photographs require two pictures, one for each eye. As the way you see real world objects. When you see real world objects you see the same image from both eyes but slightly different in angle due to difference in between eyes.As normal visual, in this 3D vision, the pictures must be presented to your eyes so that each eye sees only the picture intended for it. Generally two methods are used: Both methods require one to learn a new visual skill.Normally when we look at the "real" world, our eyes converge on an object in the scene and they also focus on that same object. We habitually do this, and our brains have become accustomed to a one-to-one correspondence between focus and convergence.We can learn to "unlock" focus and convergence, enabling us to view stereo pairs without optical aid. In this tutorial we use a display method which can be adapted to either parallel-eye viewing or crossed-eye viewing. Three pictures will be shown side by side. The middle one is to be viewed with the right eye. The other two are identical and one is to be viewed with the left eye. Here's how to view them.(1) Parallel viewing. This is sometimes called wall-eyed viewing. Use the left and middle pictures only. Look at a distant object then bring your eyes down to the paper trying not to converge or focus on the paper. You'll see a blurred double image. Consciously try to bring the double image into one. Now try to focus your eyes on it without allowing the two images to drift apart.Parallel viewing is limited to pictures about 2.5 inches wide, the spacing of the typical human eye (which averages 65 mm).(2) Cross eyed viewing. Use the right and middle pictures only. Hold your finger exactly halfway between your eyes and the page. Focus on your finger. Your eyes will be converged on the finger also, and you should be conscious of the two pictures out of focus behind your finger, but probably nearly coincident. Move your finger a bit until the two pictures are fully coincident. Now hold that convergence while refocusing from your finger to the page. Finally, you can remove your finger from the field of view.Crossed eyed viewing can be used with even larger pictures. Paintings have been presented this way. Salvadore Dali painted some of this kind. For those who can learn the skill of viewing, this is one of the most effective ways for viewing stereo without special glasses. (2) Mirror method. For completeness, we illustrate a method rarely used in printed books. Popular Photography magazine experimented with it for a while. One picture of the pair is printed normally, ad the other is printed beside it, but reversed left/right. That picture is viewed through a mirror which re-inverts it. We will not use that method here.  You can use the above techniques to view the below image
After all those stuff it is time to move into an actual image and feel the 3D. Below are some of the pictures I got from the internet. You can view them in 3D using cross eye technique.

You can find galleries of 3D images at You can find thousands of other sites where you can view 3D image gallery.When moving on to video, it is very tricky. But the methodology is the same. You can view them on all the techniques mentioned above. Youtube recently launched an their 3D videos and users can upload their 3D videos to youtube now. But before we watch them here is a video uploaded before youtube launched 3D.
It is time to switch to 3D mode in youtube. It is just 2 simple steps·         First go to Select 3D Mode on youtube. And select “View video with no 3D device”·         You are ready to view 3D. Try one of the following videos. (You will notice there is a new menu before the resolution menu on youtube lower panel when you are watching a 3D video)Here is a 3D video channel. You can search for more on youtube

  Mastering the keyboard will not only increase your navigation speed but it can also help with wrist fatigue. Here are some lesser known Windows shortcuts to help you become a keyboard ninja. Win + Tab beautiful tab explorer Win+1, 2, 3, 4, etc. will launch each program in your taskbar. It is helpful then to keep your most used programs at the beginning of your task bar so you can open them one right after another. This also works in Windows Vista for the quick launch icons. Win+Alt+1, 2, 3, etc. will open the jump list for each program in the taskbar. You can then use your arrows to select which jump list option you want to open. Ctrl+Shift+Esc will open the task manager without needing to hit Ctrl+Alt+Del first. Win+T will cycle through taskbar programs. This is similar to just hovering over the item with your mouse but you can launch the program with Space or Enter.Ctrl+Shift+N creates a new folder in your current directory.Ctrl + Tab or Ctrl + Shift + Tab move though tabs of the web browser F2 renames a file or folder.Win+B selects the system tray which isn’t always useful but can come in very handy if your mouse stops working. F3 will open explorer and select the search bar.

In some programs it will also open the search dialog to search within that program.Win+Up/Down maximizes and restores down the current window so long as that window has the option to be maximized. It is exactly the same as clicking on the middle button on your windows.Ctrl + Alt + Arrow keys change the direction of the screen.Win + Arrow Keys put the current window maximized or to a sideFor more shortcuts

Watch Online Videos with Subtitles

Sunday, November 6, 2011 | comments (39)

      




Most of you download movies just to play it with subtitles. Now it is time to watch online streaming videos with custom subtitles online.


I was a huge fan TV series and movies but due to limited space available on the hard disk and of cause no need to care about the post issues (If you know what I meanWinking smile) I choose to watch movies and TV series online (Mostly TV series). But the main problem was I could not find a way to play them with subtitles. 
So I write an Firefox add-on which will do the trick find the video file from those sites and then a site which can play videos when the video and the subtitle is given. (Of cause separately)

Where to Find online Video 

This is the easiest part I guess. If you are reading this post to find good Online Video Streaming Site, you better stop and Google it. Open-mouthed smile Since you are still reading I will give you some sites.


How to Find the URL

There are different methods you can follow. If you have any media catching add-on such as Download Accelerator, Youtube Downloader, Get them All … You can simply go to the streaming site and download the video and there you can get the link to the video file. (In most cases you can right click the downloading item and get the actual path)
To make your life easy, You can use my add-on. Sarcastic smile It will grab the video and direct you to the site with the video. So you only need to give the subtitle file.


How to Find Subtitles

Well again this is also a simple Google search. For better results search in the following form

{Film Name} {Language} Subtitles

Film Name should be replaced with the actual film name
Language should be two letter word like EN for English. But you can even search with English as a hole too
“Subtitles” keep this to let the Google know that you are searching subtitlesSmile with tongue out

How to get all those into one place(Watch movie with subtitles)

If you have the add-on you do not need to go anywhere just go the site and it will take you to the player. You can then submit the URL and it will play video with subtitles.
If you are more advanced user(for the sake of argumentPointing up), You need to go to
and give the URL to the file with the subtitles and you can watch it there.
Let me know your experience with these tools. Cheers!!
