What is Full Side-by-Side (SBS)?

Full Side-by-Side (Full SBS) is a widely supported 3D video format where the left-eye and right-eye views are placed next to each other in a single frame at full resolution.

Each eye gets a complete full-resolution image, resulting in the highest possible 3D quality. This format is supported by virtually all VR headsets including Meta Quest 2, Meta Quest 3, Meta Quest Pro, Pico, Samsung Gear VR, and many more.

The trade-off is that Full SBS files are larger than other formats since they contain two full-resolution views. However, the superior quality makes it the preferred format for VR enthusiasts.
