Dear Chris,
We have a similar setup using an older Quadro card employing a dual
screen output (one DP/DVI-port for each projector). The two "screens"
are in "clone mode" (NVIDIA control panel), as described e.h. here:
http://nvidia.custhelp.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/3012/~/how-to-configure-passive-or-dual-pipe-stereo-with-quadro-cards-in-windows-7.
The projectors are aligned using a projector-built-in test pattern.
In the NVIDIA 3D settings you have to activate 'Stereo' using the
'NVidia Clone Mode Stereo' (or similarly named). In PyMol you use the
'Quad-buffered Stereo' option. The NVIDIA driver will do the rest to
provide the individual left/right images. It works for full screen and
also for windowed PyMol (OpenGL windows with activated stereo only). The
rest of the desktop remains "cloned".
Hope this helps,
Christoph

Hi All,
We "upgraded" our 3D viewing room with a computer that has a Quadro
K2000 video card running Windows 7. The computer displays through two
NEC projectors with polarizing filters that display agains a special
screen. Stereo is viewed through polarized glasses just like in the
movie theater. We had the stereo working a couple years ago, but it
stopped with the upgrade. Here is my question:
Are there any special Quadro settings I need to set to have the video
card play nice with PyMOL?
Which stereo_mode do I set for this type of setup? I ran through all
the options (1 – 12), but none caused the appropriate stereo effect
Am I restricted to full screen mode or can I run stereo in windowed
mode? We only tried Windowed mode.
Does the stereo_mode change if I am using full screen mode versus
window mode?
Any help or resources you can point me to would be greatly
appreciated. (Proper procedure for aligning the projectors would be
greatly appreciated. They are fairly well aligned centrally, but
become blurry from misalignment at the edges.)
Your help is greatly appreciated.
Cheers,
Chris

Mobile security can be enabling, not merely restricting. Employees who
bring their own devices (BYOD) to work are irked by the imposition of MDM
restrictions. Mobile Device Manager Plus allows you to control only the
apps on BYO-devices by containerizing them, leaving personal data untouched!
