is this true? - Blu-ray Forum

maybe its just me, but i have a LG 47in with the 120hz refresh rate, and when sitting on my recliners the picture looks pretty amazing, but as soon as i step behind my chars or at least get further away from the screen the picture almost looks different. Has anyone else maybe noticed that, just curious..

could it be the motion flow or whatever they call it? turn that stuff off...

has to be the motion enhancer, leave it for sports only, worthless on regular broadcasts, worse with Blu Ray. But, some people do love it....

Personally I love the auto motion plus on my A950

haven't seen 240hz yet.

how does it look better than 120hz?

emm its very hard to tell the difference, i have seen it split screen with 120hz on one side and 240hz on the other and the difference is so indistinguishable it can be summed up by one word- overrated

Most tv's refresh at 60hz, so a 120hz is double the refresh rate and makes for a better refresh rate, hell imagine what the 240hz looks like..
but yeah some have said it makes a movie appear to have the look of film, instead of video if that makes any sense.
I personally like it on some movies like transformers and crank where it is bright and flashy as shit. but i agree, some movies it doesn't do much justice.

To my question above, i was just curious, it image difference is probably due to the true-motion or whatever.
