Just bought acer k135 pj..

Im a newbie, non-techie, so i hope you will answer me without the technical jargon..and my apologies if i will be asking questions like i were clueless..i am clueless

 

My questions are

1. Can i use any 3d bluray player with it? (If you can suggest a particular product, the better)

 

2. It says "3d ready"..so, im assuming, i cn watch 3d with it..so, what 3d sources or contents can it play?(been reading posts about this thing not compatible with this thing, regarding 3d viewing)

 

3. What 3d glasses should i buy? ( if you can suggest a particular product, the better)

 

4. If i decide to go for movie files contained in a usb, what details about d usb, or its movie contents, must i know..(sum1 hv been telling me about "side by side", "mkv", and im about to go nuts trying to understand them..lol

 

5. What particular connector, i.e., hdmi.. must i connect these pj and player with.(been reading different kinds, with different number suffixes, so im confused)

 

6.what other things must i know or buy, to be able to use it in having a great cinema experience..(of course, aside from a screen..i already hv 1)

 

NOTE:i just want to use it to watch movies..no more no less..not even interested with whatever other features it may have..at least, for now..

 

Thanks to whoever will be patient to bear with my being soooo clueless..

    Acer has not tested all brands and models of bluray player with this projector, however, most players should be compatible with this system. I am providing some links below that will explain 3d a little better and should help determine what components you need.

    Tnx very much.

    Hv a better understanding now of the 3d technology..

    Needless to say tho, my now better understanding still is not enuf to enable me to make precise and correct decision on what device combinations to acquire..

     

    Having said that, i hope it wudnt be asking for too much if i further seek advice, on what exact device combinations i shud be buying..i mean, with all the brand, model number, etc..

     

    I see that ur from acer, and im ok if evrything ul enumerate wud all be from acer..i like acer, esp its led technology on its projector..

     

    Ur recommendation doesnt hv to revolve around d acer pj that i already bought...i cn start fresh..my k135 is doing well on my 2d vids..so, ill pretty much relegate it to that role..

     

    Btw, iv a lot of side by sidev3d vids...but  u dont need to factor this in ur recommendation..

     

    Tnx in advance..

    The links below should describe a little better what you need.  Acer has not tested all brand glasses, so I can't provide a specific brand recommendation on glasses. You would need glasses that are Active DLP glasses. You can find many varieties online that should work.
