nvidia has 3d bluray support on windows. you might want to ask stephen
warren @ nvidia if they are working on ffmpeg support for linux? or
check the nvidia linux forums for talk about 3d.

somewhat related: there are some patches for mplayer to support
stereoscopic 3d (not bluray 3d) on mplayer-dev-eng list which are
either implemented in the filter system or the vo itself. it might be
wise to use the libavfilter system within ffmpeg to display the two
images at once. but i have no idea if its the preferred or even
possible method.

good luck
