Enable Bluray3D media flag for media stubs

The problem I have with this is false positives. Filename additions could say anything and be completely inaccurate. Probing the file for information is not.

There a few examples of movies but off the top of my head Jaws 3 is usually referred to as Jaws 3D in this case it would wrongly be classified as 3-D when not.

I am not sure of a middle ground here since most users of the skin either rip content to HDD in a container like mkv or stream it...

Maybe a solution without false positives could be to test "3d" and its mode : sbs, tab or mvc ?

Doesn't using Kodi naming convention solve your issue?

If you name it that way then Kodi should mark it as stereoscopic, no?

[Philmo67]

That is exactly what I did and without the "String.Contains(ListItem.Filename..." clauses I added, no 3D flag can be displayed for a filestub. Filestubs are empty so kodi cannot flag it as stereoscopic, filename does not seem to be involved.
Actually, only the "isstereoscopic" flag is tested, not the filename in order to display the bluray3d.png logo

So maybe filename should be tested against :
3d.mvc
3d.sbs
3d.hsbs
3d.fsbs
3d.tab
3d.htab
3d.ftab
3d-mvc
3d-sbs
3d-hsbs
3d-fsbs
3d-tab
3d-htab
3d-ftab
3d_mvc
3d_sbs
3d_hsbs
3d_fsbs
3d_tab
3d_htab
3d_ftab
in order to avoid false positives ?

Actualy KODI wiki states :

Kodi uses regular expressions to check for certain flags in the filename.

In order to properly detect the stereomode, two tags need to be present in the filename. First, a '3D' tag has to be present that matches the following regex: [-. _]3d[-. _]

In addition to this, either a 'SBS' tag [-. _]h?sbs[-. _] or a 'TAB' flag [-. _]h?tab[-. _] must be present in the filename.

To trigger 3D flag, some skins seem to use :
<visible>ListItem.IsStereoscopic | String.Contains(ListItem.FilenameAndPath,.3d.) | String.Contains(ListItem.FilenameAndPath,hsbs) | String.Contains(ListItem.FilenameAndPath,sbs) | String.Contains(ListItem.FilenameAndPath,half-sbs)</visible>

What about trying what this person did?
