stereo display!

Hi! I have written a program to display to stereo images and tried to view it with the stereo glasses. It was nothing like the stereo effect it should have, I could see both the images and the glasses were not shutting donw for left and right image.

1. I am using stereographics’s stereo glasses.
2. The two images that were being displayed well
   they were one above the other and not on the
   screen out side the screen. I was not able to
   see the images.

I was wondering is it possible that something was wrong with the glasses or the way I have written my program. The main in the program looks like:

int main( int argc, char *argv[], char *envp[] )
{

    glutInitDisplayMode(GLUT_RGB |GLUT_DOUBLE|GLUT_DEPTH|GLUT_STEREO);
    glutInitWindowPosition(250,250);
    glutCreateWindow("Stereo Image Viewer");
    InitGL();

    BitmapBits1 = LoadDIBitmap("pic1.bmp", &BitmapInfo1);
    BitmapBits2 = LoadDIBitmap("pic.bmp", &BitmapInfo2);
    
    glutInitWindowSize((int)BitmapInfo1->bmiHeader.biWidth,(int)BitmapInfo1->bmiHeader.biHeight);

    glutReshapeFunc(Resize);
    
    glutDisplayFunc(Redraw);
    
    glutKeyboardFunc(keyboard);
    
    glutMainLoop();
     return (0);

}

I was wondering if someone could help me out as I am really confused.

Many Thanks

Pranay

P.s- DO I need to use the screen for stereo affect instead of the glasses?

If you have a card and glasses that supports the native opengl stereo mode you need to draw the scene twice, one time in GL_BACK_LEFT and one time in GL_BACK_RIGHT with a slight difference in the projection matrices.

how are you doing your display?
