[QUOTE="5Hundred, post: 327369, member: 62217"] Sealen, you've obviously bought the worst LCD TV known to man then as it can only do one refresh rate :-) (Your manual shows that it can do quite a few even with the PC input e.g. 60, 72 and 75 HZ) Remember that originally you stated that all LCD's run at 60HZ only, what we're saying is that is incorrect. Just because your choosing via you're connection type to run at 60HZ always and then let the graphics card do some "magic" does not mean that this is necessarliy the only or correct way to deal with different refresh rates in your source material. For the rest of us (as the article you posted actually confirms!) our TV's can do different refresh rates, thereby negating the need to do any 3:2 pulldown. It's quite noticeable on mine if i display a 24fps movie at 50HZ i get slight juddering. However if i change the refresh rate of the TV to 24fps the movie smooths out nicely. You may not have noticed but there is a whole plugin (automatic refresh rate changer) devoted to this. Sealen i honestly think you're missing the point, there's another element to this that has escaped you. Yes a 60 HZ LCD can display a 50HZ signal by using "magic" but also it can change to being a 50HZ LCD which is far better and smoother for displaying a 50HZ source. [/QUOTE]
