Default First Blu-ray Casino Royale

So I sprung for my first blu ray and Im noticing the picture clartiy is better, but the picture dosent flow as smooth.

It seems kinda choppy or robotic if that makes sense. Im playing it on a PS3 if that matters.

I watch this movie on DVD all the time so I picked up on the difference right away. Please dont flame, just help me out.

Odd. Casino Royale is one of my favorites, and on my set up, the action flows very nicely. It's one of the discs I use to show people the difference with Blu.

What type of TV and are you using HDMI?

Yep watching credits now, its different than a DVD for sure.

Phillips 47" 1080p with HDMI

I cant tell what it is, but the picture seems to go slower?

If what Crackin suggests fixes it, I'd recommend looking for a firmware upgrade for your set. I have a 42" Philips that did the same thing until I updated the firmware. It's not a 24p capable set anyway, but there is a fix for the issue through Philips.

If your set is from the same line as mine, updating via USB could not be easier.

Ok did what crakin advised and it fixed the problem. It looks awesome now!

What is this firmware you speak of and how do I update my TV? Or is it for the PS3?

They are speaking of updating the firmware on your tv. Check Phillips' website to see what the latest firmware is for your specific television. It is possible your tv doesn't have the latest firmware installed.

Dude that's some serious detail and I'm surprised you even noticed. I'll have to play my copy to see if I can find the little Ant....
