Live the best life possible: one without motion smoothing.
Motion smoothing is something that comes up any time you have over three movie nerds over to your house to watch something. For some reason, many new TVs come with the motion smoothing turned on. Even while filmmakers petitioned to have this removed, and introduced something called filmmaker mode, these settings are on TVs worldwide.
Today we’re going to teach you how to turn motion smoothing off on your TV so that you can enjoy movies, television, and web series without your TV inserting frames to try to fool your eyes, and messing with the program of your choice.
Let’s dive in.
What Is Motion Smoothing? And How Can I Turn it Off on My TV?
