- superuser2 11y agoYES! I'm insanely sensitive to this too. I have to interrupt group TV watching to play around with the TV's menus and turn off the "automatically simulate 60fps" setting that so many Smart TVs have on by default these days. My mother can't tell the difference at all. I'm pretty sure this is just something that only a subset of the population notices enough to care about.
- Bognar 11y agoThe simulated 60 FPS (or higher) are significantly worse than just 60 FPS source material. TVs attempt to interpolate between the frames automatically and it just screws everything up.
- rossy 11y agoYes! I didn't mind the HFR Hobbit movies at all, but I can't stand the interpolated HFR that comes out of smart TVs. Once you start to notice the artifacts (often distortion or weird juddering in the background,) it becomes much less enjoyable to watch than the standard uninterpolated 24fps content. I look forward to a future of real HFR content, not fake interpolated crap. And of course, smart TV HFR butchers hand-drawn animation.
- aninhumer 11y agoPersonally, I find the higher framerates valuable enough that I'm willing to put up with the artifacts. They're easy to see if you're looking for them, but I think most of them are pretty ignorable, although there are some pathological cases (any time the scene pans across regular vertical bars e.g. blinds).
