[QUOTE="mm1352000, post: 1153368, member: 82144"] Short and direct answers to your questions (since davidf has already given a good answer, again :) )... Because that is what it is designed to do! :) MPAR does not think that 25 fps is inherently better than 24 fps. Rather, as I explained in my previous post: it is just doing what it is designed to do, which is to match the refresh rate of your TV (which is 25/50 fps) so that you get perfect video playback. If your TV supports 24 fps then the NVidia drivers (and Windows, and MP) should recognise that, and therefore you shouldn't have to force anything. If your TV does not support 24 fps then you can't force it to work. IMHO you should not be forcing the NVidia driver to anything at the Windows level.

Based on what you've told us, your optimal settings would be to configure the TV to use 24 fps for 23.976 and 24 fps (Blu-Ray) content, and 50 fps for 25/50 fps (PAL, UK DVB-S/T/T2 TV) content.
