For those who have an HDTV and a Blu-Ray - I was wondering about the so called "soap opera" effect. I had read about it at first but then I actually saw it on my 42LG70. It looked weird.
Then I went to SAMS and they had a Blu-Ray movie going and I saw the same thing. It was a different TV and a diff Blu-ray player. Anyone know what is up with that? How can I turn it off or adjust it? Thanks |

Sounds like some kind of linear interpolation mode, where if the TV is displaying more frames than it's receiving, then it can analyse consecutive frames and create extra frames between them using motion prediction. Under ideal situations (smooth motions within the scene) it can work quite well, but under others (flashing images, fast irractic motion) it can cause havoc.

Don't get me wrong, 120Hz displays have other benefits, like being able to keep a 24p frame in tact by displaying it 5 times. This helps create more even pans (still isn't smooth it is 24 frames/sec, but without the uneven that can come from 3:2) |

Yeah, if Auto Motion Plus is on too high or just on in general you might notice it. I don't really like it but I know some like to keep it on low. Just a preference thing.
Pretty much every 120hz tv will have this feature but also pretty much every 120hz tv will let you disable it. As ptaaty said 120hz still definitely comes in handy for Blu-ray material(filmed at 24fps) because @120hz your tv can output the 24fps movie(24x5=120) rather than having to do a 3:2 pulldown(on 60hz tvs) which will make pans and movement more choppy. |
