I don't have a 3D TV myself, so I cannot make guarantees, but there have
been reports that using Bino with a 3D TV works fine. It depends on
which input modes the TV supports. Possible modes are HDMI frame packing,
above/below, side by side, frame alternating / page flipping,
checkerboard, ...  Do you have more information on this?
