Well glad you got it working now, what got it working for you?
Can you play it back in 1080p as a disc without the audio lag?
Like I wrote above, Nvidia, for my system at least, defaults the 3D resolution to 720p and after I uped in to 1080p it had an audio lag, which is why I converted it to MKV. How's your playback?

Another thing to attempt, check the box for stereoscopic mode to turn it on, and adjust the resolution refresh to 24 Hz and see if it just works. Definitely make sure that drivers are updated first.

Actually, I don'y think the 760 is HDMI 2.0 so that's not an issue, but you should have an HDMI that can handle 1.4.

When you connect to the TV with 3D glasses, does the TV see that that glasses are connected? (shows up on the screen?) If not, it might be a TV setting. Have you updated your Nvidia drivers? Are your HDMI cables recent? 1.4 spec is required, HDMI 2.0 is even better. Have you tested with a direct connection to the TV bypassing the receiver? (assuming that you have a receiver) To see if that's the issue?
Perhaps try the wired option just to see if you can trick it to work...
My work computer monitor outputs those options "IR with USB", "Wired glases" etc. but not my 3D TV HTPC computer, which goes straight into the 3D setup...so maybe something in the chain needs tweaking?

One more essential piece that I forgot, you have to manually set 1080p 24 Hz in the PowerDVD 16 3D settings ("click" 3D Icon >More 3D Preferences > Display Device > HDMI 1.4 Enabled 3D TV (1080p 24Hz) after you up the resolution or else it will "auto detect" 720p by default.

PS The BluRay drive does only read and transfer data, the software does do all other work...

AUDREY73, it may not be your BluRay player, if fact I doubt that it is since most modern BluRay readers/burners are capable of handling 3D. have you set up 3D in the Nvidia control panel?
To set up your Nvidia card for 3D playback, open the Nvidia control panel (have 3D glasses handy) and run setup wizard for "Set up Stereoscopic 3D"...this will get the 3D portion working, but will drop the resolution to 720p. You can manually increase the resolution to 1080p (1920 X 1080p) and it will look great, but, at least on my computer, it will create an audio lag, meaning the the lips are out of sync and that synch tends to get worse the longer that that movie plays.
To repair the audio delay at higher resolutions, convert your movie in an MKV and play that back through PowerDVD. Super simple. MakeMKV beta is a great all in one tool for that purpose, or use whatever works for you.
Hope that helps.

I am using Powerdvd 16 and 3D Blurays look amazing.
I'm a little late to join in on this thread, but I just found a work around for my 3D audio lag / lip sync issue and wanted to share the solution for anyone having that issue. I also wanted to provide simple instructions for how to setup Nvidia 3D playback so that Powerdvd 16 wll play 3D. I personally thought that PowerDVD would simply work, didn't realize that I had to tweak the Nvidia settings, so, for anyone else who was wondering why 3D doesn't just work, here's what you need to do first.

To repair the audio delay at higher resolutions, convert your movie in an MKV and play that back through PowerDVD. Super simple. This way you get that glorious 3D picture with no sound lag. (I personally used DVDFab first to isolate the Movie and the HD audio track and then converted the file into an .ISO, mounted the file with RedFox's Virtual CloneDrive and then used MakeMKV to create the MKV file...but you can simply use the MakeMKV program, it's a standalone solution, just requires more effort to filter your options.)
I own these Blurays, by the way, I simply find it easier to store them on hard drives and stream them through my home network.
I also notice that the playback is much smoother.
Hope that helps.
