40inches IMHO too small for such nice fullHD panels. .maybe something like 50-55inches would be more like it....

ah yes viewing distance, (and also viewing cone angle, wider the better if the pixel density in the screen is sufficient to avoid seeing pixels instead of video images, i.e. full HD pixel density)..

for full HD, one can sit at 1.5-1.8x (IMHO means I like sitting at 1.5-1.8x range)

I sit 3meters from screen and the screen size is between 70-90inches diagonal depending on source material I use.

but since you said you sit at 2meter distance, then 40inches diag screen is like 1meter, i..e 2x.. I guess in your case of room size restriction, 40inches TV would do just fine. cheers!

you want to kena taruh or what!

anyway the TS said he watch from 2meter distance, so I think 40inches fullHD pretty ok lor..

empire, motionflow is frame interpolation (creation of a "intra" frame) .. (doesn't repeat same frame that would be same frame insertion)

saw it in action (the "Z" 200hz one anyway) last weekend at a sony store , watched on a few BD titles..
movies shot on film with 24fps looks "fake" in a non-film kind of way, when this feature is turned on.. like it's shot on HD digital video cams for TV series (or low end movies)..
Ok, it looks surreal like real life (some will like it, so can't really speak for others whether its better or not)
but I believe it would look good on video sources other than film but nothing to demo it on dat day.

and since most of my BD material is 1080p24 film based (except for Crank and those Nat Geo/planet earth/BBC stuff) then I can see myself turning off this feature more often than not.
