3D slideshow using Movie Edit Pro 2013

I have a collection of stereo JPEG photographs that I have taken with a pair of identical cameras.  I therefore have left images and right images stored as seperate JPEG's .  I want to be able to create a DVD slideshow presentation that I can show on my 3D TV which uses Polarised glasses.  I have followed the pages in the manual (178 -184) and I have tried to create a movie but so far I haven't achieved full frame 3D images or anything close.

I have dragged the images in pairs to the same timeline, I have highlighted both files of each pair and I have applied the 'side by side full frame stereo effect'.  When I do this, I appear to get the left hand side of one image and the right hand side of the other image, superimposed on top of each other on the screen.  If I run the movie, when I get to the second image on the timeline the screen image seems to reverse and I get the other halves of the landscape images, superimposed upon one another.  I have then tried to burn a 3D DVD disk by using the side by side 'left picture on the left half width' option (as well as other options) and I end up with a disk that firstly shows a left hand image then the right hand image or some other strange combination of parts of images, some of which are visible through the left lens and some through the right of my polaroid glasses.  Could someone explain in detail, if what I am trying to do can be done and how to do this using Movie Edit Pro 2013 please? 

Kind regards

Andrew

Hi

  . . . side by side 'left picture on the left half width' . . . .

This is correct however for 3D you must burn a Blu-ray disk not  DVD disk.

Depending on your TV you may also have to set its stereo (3D) setting to the correct format ie side by side half width.

Hi, thanks for your answer but I found out what I was doing wrong.  You need to put the pairs of pictures on different timelines.  I placed the left picture on the top timeline and the right picture below.  You then click on the red and blue stereo glasses box in the top- left of the screen and click 'Row interlace (left image first)' (polarising 3D system).  You then combine both tracks as one stereo track, to do this you click on the left and right images on the two timelines, select 'effects/stereo 3D/Stereo 3D pair left image first.  Both images combine as one. When you burn to disk, you use (in the encoder settings) - 'side by side (left picture on the left) - Half Width'.  You can burn to Blu-Ray or DVD and you watch the pictures on a 3D TV with polarised glasses. 

That works for me.  Have fun.
