program I use to create anaglyph video's is called 3D-IT and was sold by a
company called PRO ONE. They do have an internet site but do not list the
product on the site.

What there program did was convert mov. files into dip. files then to
anaglyph and back to mov. thereby giving you a Anaglyph video.
Unfortunately that only worked with win3.1 - and of course I have Win 98

This program came out several years ago with florid documentation that
contained a lot of ballyhoo about "secret government algorithms" and
"cutting edge technology" that would introduce full 3D depth into any
ordinary flat image (and claiming to be a bargain at something around
$200). It was all just a huge pile of horse manure. In short, what the
program actually did was to overlap a blue and a red copy of the same photo
or video, offsetting them horizontally so that a flat image of the scene
appeared to float behind the screen. The same thing can be done with a
number of graphics manipulation software, including the DOS shareware
program called Dave's TGA Animator, which is available free through
Compuserve.
