Do the Echo support mkv 3D support? and if it do what ones (side by side, up & down or Frame Packing)? hoping it supports 3D Frame Packing going to get 3 of them and the "Q" when they drop but if echo dont, wife sad NO! (she loves her 3D)

I seriously doubt that it will support frame packing. I don't know if you can even put a frame-packed 3D movie in a MKV container.

But, assuming that your MKV is encoded in a format that will play on an extender, then you can certainly play a side by side or top/bottom 3D movie. Just set your TV to side by side, or top/bottom 3D mode.

why yes you can use frame packing in mkv (makemkv can do so, H.264 MVC video what they call it but samething), i like doing that becouse its just one file for both 2D & 3D (just turn 3D off on extender/tv if u dont want it)... welp thanks for the info.
