[Paraview] ParaView in stereo with NVidia 3D Vision

Fri Sep 18 11:49:47 EDT 2015

Hi Aashish,

All other stereo is working fine.

Unrelated to this issue, I have always built ParaView with mesa, but I was getting sluggish graphics performance. I am currently testing a ParaView build WITHOUT mesa and now I find that Crystal Eyes stereo is working perfectly.

It seems like mesa was NOT using the graphics hardware and that was preventing Crystal Eyes stereo from working.

Shouldn't mesa be using the graphics card?

Kind regards,
Jim

Jim,

Sorry, for some reason I didn't see this email. Does any other stereo work in your setup?

I'm not sure what you mean by Display.

Do you mean the monitor type/model, or some systems settings? If the latter, how do I retrieve those settings (under Linux)?

Kind regards,
Jim

Jim,

Can you provide information on Display as well?

Hi Cory,

Building ParaView with VTK_REPORT_OPENGL_ERRORS makes the error message go away, but still no stereo. The image it plots looks like a regular non-stereo image.

Kind regards,
Jim

Hi Jim,

Considering the error message you are seeing, I wonder if setting the VTK_REPORT_OPENGL_ERRORS option to OFF might help.

Thanks,
Cory

Hi Eric,

I'm using 3D Vision (not Pro) with a Quadro card on Linux. It will draw stereo with other software, and with a simple VTK example.

Kind regards,
Jim

Hello Jim,
Before spending too much time tracking this down as an error, and just to be sure, are you trying to do this with "3D Vision" or "3D Vision Pro"? The regular 3D Vision does not have OpenGL capabilities and so will not give you stereo. If you are using 3D Vision Pro, then I defer to the ParaView gurus...

Cheers,
Eric

Good afternoon everyone,

I have been trying to use ParaView in stereo using NVidia 3D Vision glasses but I am seeing an error. I am using ParaView version 4.3.1 on Linux built using Superbuild.

I have been launching ParaView as follows:

    paraview --stereo --stereo-type="Crystal Eyes"

When ParaView starts I see the following error message:

ERROR: In <path>/build/paraview/src/paraview/VTK/Rendering/OpenGL/vtkOpenGLCamera.cxx, line 167
vtk OpenGLCamera (0x33c9940): failed after Render 1 OpenGL errors detected
  0 : (1282) Invalid operation

Is this a problem with how I am trying to use ParaView, or is it a bug? Is there anything that I can try to get stereo working?

Thanks,
Jim
