OT liao..

for (3) interpolation.... well i might be wrong, but i always complain of this

on David's Foster and Mich Buble openning sequence the camera pans on the ceiling of the concert hall
its not even, you get a very funny feeling as tho like watching on a fish eye's view, tend to elongate (height wise) on the left and right sides of the LCD

if its not interpolation then this another area to be addressed by engineers:D

dun think frame interpolation (3) and what you describing is the same thing..

opened edy..but watch once only..

basic interpolation....

you have 2 points...e.g. data 1 and data 2....put that thru a (insert your favorite word here) and it calculate and spits out data 1.5....ta daaaa...or anything in btwn 1 and 2....

I want this:

That is really "cheap" . Only for die hard fan.

sorry but is there any latest star trek movie release at cinema? or is this old star trek made into bluray.

fathil,

LCDs require some form of frame interpolation due to the nature of their refresh rates. As such, frame/motion interpolation is normally there in all LCDs. Sony's motionflow is their way of doing frame interpolation. The algorithms usually due a lot more processing to try to maintain a smooth image on screen. Most algorithms analyze the frames, say 1,2 and insert frames in between them and refresh them on the screen. Seems easy, but in most implementations they introduce artifacting. The problem with most implementations are that it gives the film a more video like feel, because there is so much manipulation of the film to begin with. I would advise to turn all off when viewing 24fps content, unless u feel u like the look of video compared to film.

As you would have noticed, most plasmas do not mention frame interpolation due to the nature of plasma refresh. However, most plasmas still have do it on 24fps material. Panasonic plasmas take the 24fps repeat every frame and refresh at 48fps. The higher end Panny plasma & Samsung plasmas I believe refresh at 96fps and Pioneer plasmas refresh it at 72Hz. This is to reduce the judder effect of panning shots. However, the implementation of this can still be flawed. One example is Pannys implementation is not as good as the rest.

Projectors use frame interpolation and frame duplication depending on the projector company.

I believe for those viewing BD material, having a display that can properly display 24fps is critical. Whenever, a display cannot do that and does pulldown to display at 60Hz, it is a real mess!

The aim of frame interpolation/motion interpolation is to give the viewer a better smoother feel to the movie.

Hope this helps.

I have to slow down my spending in BDs. Need to postpone my order to October lo.

Latest Star Trek (Star Trek 10) is a prequel sort of movie whereby it presents James T Kirk and gang in their early days straight out from the academy. Theatrically release in 2009

i thought u r not into star trek? the new one is nice...

Here's an article on frame interpolation that will shed some light for you: http://www.projectorcentral.com/frame_interpolation.htm

back when i was 16yrs young (yes, damn long time ago.. ) i was introduced to the world of HT when i visited one of my friend's house. His dad had a cool HT room.. and the movie he played via LD for demo at that time was Point Break starring Keanu Reaves & Patrick Swayze...

I can still remember the sounds of the waves blasting was as though I was present at the beach, it was great & I fell in love with HT then

Needless to say, this was one of the 1st BDs I bought when I had my own HT setup... and coming to my point, Pat Swayze passed away last nite so it kinda dampens my HT mood

moment of silence for dear Mr Swayze...
