120 Hz refresh rate on movies and shows is for animals
Is that what it is when my buddy's tv looks "too real" and makes us all uncomfortable?
They do interlacing, which for cheaper TVs just means playing the frame twice (~60fps) and the more expensive ones do between frames using a linear interpolation thing. So yeah, when you have action mode/motion smoothing on your TV is creating at least half the frames you see.
Maybe okay for sports? For everything else it sucks tho.
Makes me feel motion sick watching 2 people talking in a room with nothing else going on. unwatchable
I was worried based off the original post that you might be living like that.
fix your dumbass friend's tv too.
Appreciate the concern
