24fps or 60fps with Motion Enhancers?

[weiland555]

My question concerns LCD's with Motion Enhancers (like Samsungs AMP for example). For the best motion processing, if someone has their Motion Enhancer set "on", is it best to output Blu-ray films at 24fps or 60fps?

I'm watching Blu's on a Samsung LNA650 which supposedly accepts and properly displays 24fps materials, with AMP "off", that is. But I'm a sucker for havin AMP "on", at least set to LOW or MEDIUM. Thanks in advance for the help!

I am not an expert by any means, so I can't get technical for you. I'll leave that to some of the other fine members here.

However for an easy explanation, I'll try. With motion enhancer on, it is adding "extra" frames (interpolating) and thus it causes what I like to call "ghosting" or there appears to be "trails." By turning off the motion enhancer, no more "extra" frames and you are viewing the movie the way it was intended to be viewed, where 1080/24p material is properly being refreshed at a rate of 120hz.

It shouldn't cause ghosting. It should make it look like HD video or a "soap", which some people like & others hate. Even the 9G Kuro has a "smooth" setting that is not talked about & it can be used while watching anything & give you that same effect, but only during panning shots. It's so smooth your eyes almost cross. It's not for every one.

Nah, it can. Setting the frame interpolation to high can cause minor ghosting, especially on first Gen displays or displays with a higher response time.

24p for sure, there's much less artifacting/glitching.

You have a plasma. It would be very rare to encounter any motion blur/ghosting on a plasma..........especially a Kuro! Different story for LCD and their slower RTs.
