Default 24fps?

I am trying to set up my new Blu-ray player - how do I know if my TV has a 24fps refresh rate? I have looked through my user manual but I see no mention of fps. I currently have a Pioneer Elite Plama PRO-1140HD display. Is it safe to assume that if they don't call it out in the manual that it does not support it?

sorry, I don't see it.

...the Pioneer website says it accepts 24fps. As for displaying it correctly? ...im trying to read the manual as we speak.

the manual uses the term 24 Hz instead of 24 fps.

All Pioneer displays every made including the 720P (768P) models that include a 1080P/24 feature will refresh the image on the screen at 72HZ. Now the 720P(768P) models will donconvert the image from 1080P/24 and display the image a 720P (768P) at 72HZ.

The Pioneer PRO-1140HD is not on the list since only 1920 X 1080P models are placed on the list. The PRO-1140HD is a 1365 X 768P pixel display which qualifies it as a 720P or slightly better then 720P. Still according to reviews the 720P (768P) Pioneers have a over all better picture quality when compared to most other 1080P models on the market do to the deep blacks and contrast ratio that adds contrast detail instead of resoultion detail. On page 117 of the manual lists the resolution and on page 59 list the 72HZ refresh rate. The Pioneer should automatically display 1080P/24 signals at 720P (768P) at 72HZ refresh rate regardless of menu settings. In order to do a reverse 3:2 pulldown for 60HZ film based material like DVD,cable, and satellite movies one needs to switch the Pioneer to the advanced mode like it is mentioned on page 59 of the manual.

...its not really a deal maker/breaker for me...Ive enjoyed movies @ 60Hz for the last 20 years!

But I guess for some, it might be worth it.

I tried 24 frames and overall I wasn't impressed. It seemed to make more artifacts and looked unatural. Definitly pass, 24 was designed to sell more tvs and players but ultimately it sucks!

Did your TV have a true 24fps display with 120hz? Seems to be the only way to see it without any sort of pulldown. I look forward to movies being filmed with a higher frame rate, but just like enjoying watching films in their original aspect ratio, I also enjoy native frame rate.

I think with Sony's you should turn Motion Enhancer off.

I don't know what you are calling an artifact. Anything other than 24p with 2:2, 3:3, 4:4, 5:5, etc. pulldown would be an artifact. Perhaps you just don't like the natural flicker (not a true judder) associated with 24p sources?
