Which 3D Experience Should I Choose?
Every conversion lets you choose a 3D Experience preset that controls how strong the 3D effect is. The right choice depends on the type of content and how long you plan to watch.
Comfort (gentle depth)
A gentle 3D effect that stays easy on the eyes, even for long viewing. The best choice for anyone sensitive to motion sickness, and when people or objects come close to the camera.
Cinema (recommended, balanced depth)
Clearly perceptible depth that still feels natural: the balanced middle ground. This is the default and suits most users and most content — when in doubt, use Cinema. Great for feature-length films, documentaries, landscapes and narrative video.
Aggressive (maximum pop-out)
Maximum depth and pop-out effect. Best for short clips (under 5 minutes), demos, music videos, action sequences, or anywhere you want the strongest immersion. Not recommended for long-form viewing as the high parallax can cause eye fatigue over time.
Which preset for which content?
- Vlogs / talking head — Comfort
- Landscape / drone footage — Aggressive or Comfort
- Concerts / live events — Comfort or Cinema
- Movies / documentaries — Cinema or Comfort
- Music videos / trailers — Aggressive
- Sports highlights — Aggressive
- Anything with rapid camera motion — Comfort or Cinema (Aggressive can amplify motion)
A tip: if you are not sure, convert a short test clip first. The preset only affects the warp stage — the underlying depth estimation is the same — so you can quickly compare which one feels best on your headset.
