Does anyone want or like motion smoothing? It’s seemingly universally hated by a majority of those who care (myself included), and a minority of those who don’t. Why are TV manufacturers so dead-set on shoving it down our throats?
- rightbyte 2y agoMaybe it is good for tracking the ball in sports? (Note: A hypothesis. I don't watch sports ...)
- ipsento606 2y agoit's good - or at least, fine - for stuff that you want to look as true-to-life as possible. Sports, nature documentaries, news coverage (if you're into that) it's absolutely awful for everything else
- recursive 2y agoI don't think it's even fine for anything. In all the implementations I've seen, as soon as the action gets too big/complicated, the interpolated frames are dropped. Right when you need the intermediate frames most, it seems to drop to the source frame rate. (maybe just for part of the screen?)
