120 hz / true motion disabled in My Media / Netcast? Any noticed this?

The reason behind this is that the content is streaming through your Ethernet cable instead of through an HDMI, component or composite cable, so there's no way for the on-board processor to apply the 120Hz tech. In other words, the resolution of the streaming content is dependent primarily on the connection to the source (website/server that broadcasts the signal) as well as the quality at which it is streamed (HD or SD). The video is processed by the server, then transmitted through the Internet and your Ethernet cable, basically just acting as a medium for the source material, it's not being processed by your TV or Blu-ray player's video decoding because it's not originating from them, it's originating from a a distant source. I'm reasonably sure that I don't have all the details correct but if I'm not mistaken that's basically the gist of why 120Hz does not apply to the Netcast media. Think of it this way, (if you have a computer) your computer's video card cannot apply all of its technology to streaming content on Youtube because the data is not stored or coming from your computer, it's coming through your Internet connection which is instant and temporary. You can modify what's stored locally but not what's located at an external source, if that makes sense.

This is a native120hz panel that uses "scanning backlight" tech to achieve 240hz.. It doesn't matter what signal you feed it, it will still output a 240hz rendering. The 60hz you see in the top right info bar is simply the frequency/frame rate from your NTSC broadcast from your cable box/DVR or over the air signal. IN England it would say 50hz. All that aside, pay no attention to the top info bar if this has you worried. If you play a Blu Ray, it will say 1080p24 (assuming you have your Blu Ray sending your TV 1080p/24) This is really nothing you need to concern yourself with. The info bar ONLY displays the signal you are feeding the TV and NOT what the TV is putting out. The TV will ALWAYS put out a 1080p signal at either 60hz, 50hz or 24fps depending on your source. The 240hz is the screens REFRESH RATE and has nothing to do with the input or output signal. TO understand this further you can find useful info on both Wikipedia and the AVS forum among other places. Do not worry, this TV IS 240hz (120hz with scanning back light doubling what you see) Cheers! Marty G

Yes. I have my system set to motion detection so that it doesn't record all the time. Be sure to check the recordings periodically so that the memory/hard drive doesn't fill up too quickly.

No, its not! I got Samsung 60Hz(120 true motion rate) TV, put it next to LG 120Hz(LG doesn't show true motion rate anywhere, as a matter fact it wouldn't even say on a box or in the menu that is 120Hz!!!) and I was watching them next to each other for 3 days, even tried to change the setting ... and let me tell you-Samsung 60 Hz much better, sharper picture than LG 120Hz!!!

We had that problem and had to adjust the delay in our digital audio board. If you put the audio output directly into the ATEM unit, the stream should sync. Watch cable run lengths. We did alot of SDI. We record at 7mbs on the video, seems to be the most stable. Good luck, cheers.

I have XMBC (frodo build) installed on my EB1503 (as I use the box as a media server) it has no problems with any of the HD audio associated with video codecs (DTS & Dolby TrueHD). I've never tried streaming from an online source (as I only have DSL). My audio/video goes over HDMI to my Onkyo TX-NR608. My experience would say that it is your decoding software having problems, not the EB1503 hardware.

i have the same issue with a new Syslink router. Just a lot of data moving with four realtime cameras and it probably needs a dedicated network. If the frame rate of the cameras can be reduced it would help,

That's a good question. I didn't realize it until i saw it myself this evening. But yeah it's only 60Hz. I'm disappointed in this.

no I am getting refresh rates of 1080p at 60 Hz, using Time Warner with 720p/60HZ, Cable will only downgrade the refresh when you are going to 4K from 1080p/60Hz

I have the 42" and have not had any such problems. I do not believe that there is a "60"hz mode. Since the tv is a 120 hz, there are two options. Display the same image twice, which gives a slightly laggy effect, or try to predict the next frame and display it roughly. Which gives the soap feel. 120 hz are kind of off sometimes.

I have the UH50EH6000F and on the box it says "Clear motion rate 240 - A new motion clarity measure based on the actual measurement of resolution in a moving scene"

Sweet, I did that as well as some other adjustments on my blu-ray input. I will set mine back to standard & see if it helps. Any suggestion on settings i should use Nick?

your tv is always displaying 120hz, what you see on the screen is what he input frame rate is so your tv is taking 60 hz and converting it to 120.

120/240 is just marketing buzz. It's a frame doubler, not truly 120hz. If you send 120 frames per second to the TV, it drops frames just like a 60hz set would. There are definitive tests proving this on the official thread on avsforum.com

I have only noticed a minor motion 'jerkiness' on a couple of TV shows, but I attribute it to my satellite receiver, otherwise Sports in HD and DVD viewing are phenomenal! I will look into the owners manual, to see if I can find anything. You say it is intermittent...for all viewing or on certain shows? Also, are you viewing via cable or satellite?

It must be your video board or driver. My video was already set to max resolution and it started in max with no additional adjustment.

There is no lag going from composite(edit:component) to HDMI on the passthrough(although there might be a loss of quality. I haven't tested without it, it's been plugged in since I got it.) The capture has about 2 seconds delay.
