### Step 1: Launch PowerDVD and Insert Your Blu-ray Disc or Load the Video File

### Step

Once the player has loaded your content, navigate to the main menu. Depending on how you've configured your TV or monitor settings for viewing 3D content:

1. If using an NVIDIA graphics card: Press Alt+Enter keys together while in full-screen mode.

2. For AMD/ATI graphics cards: Use Ctrl+F (Windows) or Option + F (Mac).

After enabling stereoscopic 3D output, you may need to adjust your display settings further:

1. Go to the 'Options' menu within PowerDVD and select 'Video'.

* For NVIDIA graphics: Select 'HDMI 1/2 (NVIDIA 3D)' or similar depending upon your monitor configuration.

* For AMD/ATI graphics: Choose 'AMD Eyefinity' and then select the correct output device from the drop-down list.

### Step 4: Enjoy Your Movie in Stunning 3D

Once you've completed these steps, PowerDVD should now automatically switch to its stereoscopic 3D mode when playing back compatible content. Adjust your TV or monitor's display settings accordingly (e.g., set it to 'Side-by-Side' for anaglyph viewing) and sit back to enjoy a truly immersive cinematic experience.
