Yep. Hate theaters for this reason. Absolutely unwatchable. My LG G3 with motion smoothing provides far better experience. Even in Avatar 2 they put some sections of it in lower frame rate for no reason and I noticed them instantly.

Your mind is blown that someone might not like to watch movies at a prehistoric 24Hz on a screen that is capable of 120Hz, after video games have been running at this frame rate for a decade already?

> It's about the slowest frame rate that's not very distracting. Except, it is very distracting. Around 60 it starts to become bearable for me and allow camera pans to be interpreted as fluid motion.

Actually, more is always better. What do you think why we try to run PC games at 144, or even 240 and 360 fps?

I wonder if you'd have the same reaction to a movie properly authored at 120Hz without the subtle artifacts.

Where does this nonsensical argument keep coming from? No idea what a "cheap soap opera" is even supposed to be. The only thing I notice is that the horrifying judder during camera pans is replaced by minor artifacts that don&#x27

Imagine actually, unironically watching a movie with the motion smoothing off. Yes, I sure like to watch my movie on Google Slides and see every single frame during camera pans. Perhaps once movies are recorded at a frame rate from the curr

Worse at doing calculations manually? Absolutely. How many people have done a long division on paper in the last 10 years? Could remember immediately how to do it, not having done it since school? But does that matter, if it lets us get bet

They don't, though. If you try to allocate too much VRAM it will either hard fail or everything suddenly runs like garbage due to the driver constantly swapping it / using shared memory. The reason for this flag to exist in the fi

Why haven't they started working on reusable rockets the second SpaceX showed us it could be done?

If anything, tooling for analyzing and fixing bugs (as the developer) on Windows is so much better it's not even comparable.

Consider the impact of those things failing. Your chair breaking might injure you in a way that takes months or years to heal. The fridge failing might spoil an entire batch of food. A window failing at the wrong time could cause massive

It's an odd combination of numbers. So if you use it for one second, it breaks? Though I guess, 1 trillion switches is more than 1 million times too...

Well, it's been decades since DVDs were used. Have you tried it again on a modern TV, for example a LG G3? The motion smoothing tech improved massively over time like everything else.

I tried the black frame insertion, but it seems unusable. I can see it flimmering. Very uncomfortable to look at the screen with it on.

> its so unreliable, its smooth for 8 frames, then breaks and comes back That's unfortunately true, even on the best TVs. But for me that is merely slightly jarring, while panning cameras at 24 fps are completely unwatchable. So I b

The jarring part in Avatar 2 is that for some completely inexplicable reason it had sections with low fps. I noticed every single one of them instantly and it was very off putting. And while 48 fps is a major improvement from the prehistori

Hmm. I don't think I've ever seen screen tearing or something similar on my LG G3, or any of the previous generations that came before.

by andersa 3y ago
Yes, this is the exact issue. My eyes can't even interpret this as motion sometimes, so it just looks like a juddering mess and I can't really see anything.

by andersa 3y ago
Some of the interpolated frames do indeed look odd, but that is much preferable to the horrible sideways judder when watching 24fps content on a modern OLED tv with near-instant pixel response. I wonder if new display tech is contributing t

It depends. If I'm watching a movie, I obviously want the highest quality, and it really annoys me when the app doesn't have a feature to force the quality. Great, that means the movie is canceled and I'll have to try again a

TV without motion smoothing is absurdly terrible. Might as well watch the movie in Google Slides. Once they get with the times and record the movies in 120 fps, we can get rid of it.

If the app is processing data in a way you do not want before sending it, especially one that will no doubt be constantly argued to scan for more and more things they find objectionable, then it defeats whole point of end to end encryption,
