1. A media processor, comprising a controller to:
- receive a first high definition (HD) stereoscopic data stream on a first HD channel utilized for transporting two-dimensional (2D) media programs;
receive a second high definition stereoscopic data stream on a second HD channel utilized for transporting 2D media programs;
retrieve from the first and second HD channels the first and second HD stereoscopic data streams;
identify from portions of the first and second stereoscopic data streams synchronization data;
synchronize the first and second HD stereoscopic data streams according to the synchronization data to collectively form a first three-dimensional (3D) HD imaging stream; and
direct a presentation device to present the first 3D HD imaging stream.
