There's a lot of talk these days about frame rates in the new Hdtvs. The frame rate is simply the estimate of clear images a Tv screen can display in a second, and is also known as the display rate or "Hertz". Hertz is the scientific unit for cycles per second, and is abbreviated "Hz". The newest buzzword is "120Hz", which means a display rate of 120 frames per second. This is twice as fast as most Hdtvs are capable of (60Hz), so it ought to make the intelligent pictures look smoother. But, the human eye can only process about 20 to 25 clear images per second, so why should it matter what the frame rate is, as long as it is faster than your eyes can see?
The sass comes when you comprehend that not all video is filmed at the same rate. Movies are ordinarily filmed at a rate of 24 Hz, most Tv is filmed at 30 Hz, and some sports events are now being filmed at 60 Hz.
Vizio Problems
Some uncomplicated math will show the problem and recapitulate the solution. When a Tv set wants to display 60 frames per second, and the cable Tv enterprise sends it 30 frames per second, that's easy to deal with: the Tv shows each frame twice in a row, creating an image made up of two consecutive frames. Each image will last exactly 1/30th of a second on the screen, and things will look perfectly smooth.

So what happens when your Dvd player sends 24 frames per second to the Tv, but the Tv still wants to show 60 on the screen? This is a petite slower than the cable Tv frame rate, so if it simply shows each frame twice and then waits for the next one, there will be a black gap in between and the movie will look terrible. So, the Tv needs to triple one frame, double the next, triple the following one, and so on, giving it a total of 60 frames to show each second. This is known as 3:2 Pulldown.
The 3:2 Pulldown trick works Ok, but there is a problem. One image lasts a 20th of a second, then the next lasts a 30th. A 20th of a second is long sufficient for most population to tell that it's certainly a static image, and when the camera pans nearby in a scene, things will seem to move unevenly. But if your Tv is able to display 120 frames per second, it can take the 24 Hz input and simply show each frame 5 times in a row for a total of 1/24 (or 5/120) second per frame, with no dissimilarity from frame to frame. And when 30Hz video comes in, it displays each frame 4 times in a row, for a total of 1/30 (or 4/120) second per frame. Problem solved.
Now that frame rates are fast sufficient to display any kind of input smoothly, Hdtvs not only have high resolution in the x and y (height and width) dimensions, but also in the t (time) dimension. As in all kinds of digital media, higher resolution means smaller units of data, and that means a more lifelike gravidity of reality. The 120Hz frame rate won't be very common until 2008, but a few Hdtvs already have it, like the Sony Bravia Xbr4 series and the Sharp Aquos 92U series.
Hdtv has certainly entered the fourth dimension (time), but has skipped the third (depth) in the process. Until we see start finding holographic movies on Dvd, we'll have to wait for true four-dimensional Tv.
Hdtv Enters the Fourth dimension - 120Hz Frame RatesVIZIO hdtv model- M420VT picture trouble Video Clips. Duration : 0.93 Mins.UPDATE-9/21/2011-- Had to send photos of unit to Vizio via email. Vizio is giving me a new unit which they said is "re-certified" which means it's a unit that was sent to Costco- Costco could only fit so many in warerhouse and the rest are returned - unboxed -double checked for damage- computer diagnostic- then reboxed. Is this really new or not? Anyone trust the explanation? Our recent January 2011 purchase from Costco has started acting up. When you turn it on, the screen will do the following: -phase from a section of dark to a very light gray with small white lines going vertical across the entire screen. -all black screen broken into thirds with just 2 white small lines going vertical. -screen will have tv program on but image will phase in colors like "solarization" but it will effect specific colors like darks will look neon-ish green. We had a Panasonic with problems and now we have this Vizio that's getting me pissed. Anyone with similar issues? Any idea what to do? I called Costco and we phone conferenced with Vizio support. Did the old unplug of units and wait 15 minute BS. Can't return after 90 days. Have to go through customer support. Also, don't know if this is important but I have Comcast cable. Could they be the ones making problems for me?
