LCD TV Refresh Rates

this is a very good explanation love it

i want to buy a 40 inch samsung led,will be used for tv and gaming. Is 60 hz enough?

[crutchfieldtv]

@RevelationGJS It’s really a matter of personal preference. Samsung makes quality panels so even the 60 Hz models should have no motion-blur issues for regular TV and gaming applications. Personally, I prefer at least 120Hz for Blu-Ray movies which helps eliminate the “3:2 pull-down” processing that’s required for film based content on a 60 Hz display.

@crutchfieldtv i decided to go with the LED 120 hz model UN40D6000, it's $150 extra. thanks

[fezzie666]

thank you very much. Can i please ask u if u've tested or know anything about the panasonic vierra VT25. It's the 50 inch 3d plasma from panasonic that i am really interested in. Just really need to be sure about it though, since the price tag is still $1600. Thanks for reading and looking forward to hear from u

@fezzie666 Sorry, we do not offer the “VT25” series at the moment. I can tell you that the “GT30” series that we do offer is available at a great price and garnering quality reviews. Feel free to call for additional assistance: 800.315.0030--Crutchfield

Hey so if I get a 120hz TV would.3d appear as 60hz?

[crutchfieldtv]

@Brolyy07 You got it. So, if you want the smoother motion of 120Hz in 3D (especially from your 3D Blu-ray movies), you would want to select a model that offers the 240Hz frame rate (120Hz for each eye). Feel free to call for additional assistance: 800.315.0030---Crutchfield

[Brolyy07]

What Sony bravos should I get 120hz 3d or 240hz 3d?

[crutchfieldtv]

@Brolyy07 Both are good, but the 240Hz would provide smoother motion (especially for your Blu-ray 3D movies) by producing 120Hz for each eye. Feel free to call for additional assistance: 800.315.0030---Crutchfield

i need help does sony Motionflow XR 960 is it refreshing the image or is just fooling with are eyes 

[crutchfieldtv]

@XZ1PB The “XR 960” from Sony is a simulated frame rate. The models that offer this feature use a combination of the panel’s 240 Hz (the actual frames per second) and the synchronized backlighting to simulate the 960 Hz effect. Feel free to call for additional assistance: 800.315.0030--Crutchfield

@crutchfieldtv thx

[TheBandicootCrash]

I'm sorry, but I was convinced that Refresh Rate on LCDs doesn't affect the blur/flickering, but only on CRT (I believe) TVs.

And my monitor (LCD) has the Refresh Rate only up to 75 Hertz (on a 1440x900 resolution). Is that ok?

Great video, and great tutoring!

[crutchfieldtv]

@TheBandicootCrash

Thanks for watching, and your kind remarks about our video. I'm sure 75 Hz isn't hurting anything on your monitor, but I'm not familiar with a monitor that can be set to that specific refresh rate.

hey Steve do you know the differences between Motionflow Pro 240hz and the new Motionflow XR 240 that is available in EX 3dtv models :)

[crutchfieldtv]

@limonada46

Motionflow Pro 240Hz technology quadruples the frame rate from the standard 60 frames per second and applies Image Blur Reduction technology to deliver a crisp, fluid and realistic viewing experience during fast-action scenes.

The newer MotionFlow XR 240 technology combines 120 frames-per-second with an advanced backlight blinking system to simulate a 240 Hz effect.

This info is available for each model on the Crutchfield website.

[limonada46]

@crutchfieldtv Thanks  :) and is there too much difference between both?

[crutchfieldtv]

@limonada46

Pro 240Hz is more effective, and truly refreshes the image 240 times per second.

[TheGarvito]

@crutchfieldtv so its better to get the older Motionflow pro 240hz instead of the newer models with XR 240?

[crutchfieldtv]

@TheGarvito

Well, yeah, as far as that specific technology goes, the Pro 240HZ does a better job than XR 240.

Need help deciding?

Thanks Steve! :D

It was not mentioned that higher refresh rates can cause undesirable artifacts in the image.
