Describe the feature you'd like

Since there is the implemented option of selecting the 3D format of a movie (HOU, HSBS,...) in the meta data and also a Tag for these files in the Web and Android client, wouldn't it be nice to

  1. implement the option to watch this file in 3D? E. g. to doublicate also the time-bar/interface like in kodi to be able to control the menu even when your TV is in 3D mode 1640115870721536303518445410083

And

  1. To add the option to watch a 3D movie in 2D if preferred (by cropping and resizing the picture) like it is also possible in kodi?

I personally don't care much about point number 2, since Jellyfin supports selecting between multiple renditions of a video, as per https://jellyfin.org/docs/general/server/media/movies/#multiple-versions-of-a-movie. I have several films in my Jellyfin library with both a 3D and 2D version, and I wouldn't expect most users to be in a situation where they only have access to the 3D version of a film. I wouldn't argue against the ability to crop and resize a 3D video to display in 2D, but I think that is less important than the first point about duplicating UI elements. In particular, the subtitles are pretty important. As it stands right now, I have to disable subtitles whenever I watch a film in 3D, which I really do not think should be necessary.

+1 for option 1 ... But also: proper subtitle display in 3D mode (like Kodi).

Subtitles suck yeah

Option 2 would be nice as well, wasting space needing to have 2 versions of the same film is suboptimal
