XstereO Player for Android

I was hoping for more from this app - especially after paying the additional amount to unlock the one useful function, the ability to export a converted file. With an .mpo file from Lumix, and possibly other formats, it appears impossible to do batch processing of multiple files since the app is set up to take one image from one file and another image from another file rather than using both images which are contained in the .mpo data file. If there was an another app that worked I most certainly would have purchased it however I expected this app to perfrom better. If you are thinking of processing multiple files into Left/Right images for view this is NOT the app for you. Having to process one file at a time works but is tedious and shows a basic lack in the layout of this app. I DO NOT recommend you purchase this unless you are well aware of its limitations as it would have been a simple code to enable this most basic function and the price you pay to be able to export the files is exhorbitant and simply not worth it. Very disappointed.

It does accurately take a snapshot done in 3D and covert it into red and cyan or side by side half. I assume you can save the photo as a different format for editing if you pay the premium. (don’t know, haven’t tried, don’t care as of yet.) There are 2 things I need for it to make it worth a purchase of $25. 1) Do 3D video. Not just stills, but motion video. 2) Be able to understand the 3D format I need, a Nintendo 3DS AVI Motion Jpeg video footage. If I can take my 3DS video, convert it to side-by-side half, edit it in iMovie, convert it into 3 different versions, side-by-side half, red and cyan, and just one eye for a 2D presentation, without having to edit it 3 times I would buy it and it’d be real popular. I don’t have enough bandwidth for web solutions without waiting a day for the conversion.. The 3DS is the worlds most popular 3D video camera and the ONLY 3D video camera sold at Best Buy now. If I get this I can save $275 over Final Cut Pro 10.3 I don’t need FCPX's extra features, so a light 3d suite would be perfect. Add titles in stereoscopic 3D and I’ll pay $30. Add stereoscopic transitions, I’ll pay $40. I just don’t need it for stills. If motion jpeg is just an uncompressed sequence of compressed Jpegs, you should convert it frame for frame without worrying about between-frame compression. PLEASE RELEASE A MOVING PICTURE VIDEO ADD ON for this product.

I’ve enjoyed using this application with MPO files made with my Fuji W3. Just copy the MPO files to a folder on your Android, open XStereo, and drag the folder from the Finder to the XStereo screen and start the slideshow. I use the Berezin Pocket 3Dvu viewer and probably sit about 34” away from the screen.

My interest is in viewing pictures taken with my Fuji 3DW3 on my computer screen and in creating stereo cards for viewing with a stereoscope. This app is perfect for both, but in particular for printing stereo cards. Several different themes are offered to match different traditional styles of stereo cards, as well as customized text on the bottom of the right hand image and text or a custom logo on the sides of the card. When I had a question about inserting a custom logo, the developer answered my question promptly (drag and drop your graphic file into the display box on the app). The position of the stereo image in the left and right windows can be adjusted, as can the position of your text or logo on the sides. The stereo image can also be adjusted with sliders for sepia, hue, saturation, contrast and exposure to give an antique effect or preserve the full color of the original. Wow! The full functionality of the app can be tested for free, and the in-app purchase to remove the watermark from exported files is reasonably priced. Enthusiastic five stars!

Just bought Fujifilm FinePix Real 3D W3 camera with the main intention of printing my own stereo cards for use in a standard Holmes viewer. I am glad they added the “Stereo Card” output, but for the next update please add an option to have the Stereo Card be in full color and not just sepia. Because I want full color, have been using the LR pairs, but having the rounded stereo card template in full color would make this a perfect app.
