00:00:00,240 --> 00:00:06,879
television marketing nonsensical terminology or TMNT for short is an

2
00:00:05,080 --> 00:00:11,280
acronym that we made up here at lonus Media Group to describe all of the

3
00:00:08,679 --> 00:00:16,480
overtop terms TV manufacturers use to describe their products refresh rates

4
00:00:13,880 --> 00:00:22,519
these are usually simple to spot as they mostly consist of an adjective slapped

5
00:00:19,039 --> 00:00:25,680
onto the word motion such as true motion

6
00:00:22,519 --> 00:00:27,480
Aqua motion or clear motion but do these

7
00:00:25,680 --> 00:00:32,000
proprietary rating systems actually deliver the image quality that we want

8
00:00:30,279 --> 00:00:36,360
for any who might be unfamiliar with what exactly a screen's refresh rate is

9
00:00:34,600 --> 00:00:40,719
you can watch our video explaining it in depth right up here but basically it's

10
00:00:38,680 --> 00:00:44,640
the amount of times a screen can update the still images that it strings

11
00:00:42,480 --> 00:00:49,640
together to create motion in a single second with the standard refresh rate

12
00:00:46,440 --> 00:00:51,840
being 60 HZ meaning 60 images or 60

13
00:00:49,640 --> 00:00:56,399
Cycles since most video sources don't exceed that limit demand for faster

14
00:00:54,000 --> 00:01:00,120
refresh rates has mostly remained among higher grade enthusiasts and

15
00:00:57,879 --> 00:01:03,800
professionals but recently consumers have been looking for ways to reduce

16
00:01:01,760 --> 00:01:08,360
image degrading effects such as the motion blur seen in high-speed moving

17
00:01:05,880 --> 00:01:12,320
images which often is a result from a display's inability to refresh quickly

18
00:01:10,280 --> 00:01:16,920
enough so how do these high refresh rate Technologies with the funny names try to

19
00:01:14,520 --> 00:01:21,520
solve this problem not surprisingly they employ different forms of visual

20
00:01:18,640 --> 00:01:26,360
trickery as you can't exactly extract 120 frames per second out of something

21
00:01:23,560 --> 00:01:30,240
that was only recorded at 60 or even 30 HZ instead these TVs will fool your eyes

22
00:01:28,880 --> 00:01:34,439
into thinking that the refesh fresh rate is higher in some way one common

23
00:01:32,640 --> 00:01:38,320
technique is called backlight strobing which works by doing something slightly

24
00:01:36,040 --> 00:01:41,799
differently from a normal LCD monitor modern flat panel displays show motion

25
00:01:40,159 --> 00:01:47,040
by doing something called sample and hold which means it will display a

26
00:01:43,640 --> 00:01:49,320
static image on screen for a full 160th

27
00:01:47,040 --> 00:01:53,640
of a second or however long its refresh rate is before loading the next one

28
00:01:51,799 --> 00:01:58,479
backlight strobing works by only turning on the display's backlight for a

29
00:01:55,399 --> 00:02:00,280
fraction of a display cycle and instead

30
00:01:58,479 --> 00:02:05,799
just show a black screen for some portion of that cycle this creates the

31
00:02:03,000 --> 00:02:11,280
illusion of more frames and therefore smoother motion another tactic is called

32
00:02:08,360 --> 00:02:15,360
black frame insertion which works uh much the same way except instead of

33
00:02:13,120 --> 00:02:20,560
turning off the backl the display just shows a black frame other TVs instead

34
00:02:18,400 --> 00:02:25,239
use motion interpolation which involves a processor inside the display

35
00:02:22,760 --> 00:02:29,959
generating intermediate frames that are inserted between actual frames from the

36
00:02:27,560 --> 00:02:34,280
video Source because these generated frames are what the eye might expect to

37
00:02:31,879 --> 00:02:39,360
see such as a moving car halfway between point A and B this also makes everything

38
00:02:37,120 --> 00:02:42,760
appear smoother but how well does this actually work if you've ever been in

39
00:02:41,000 --> 00:02:46,959
front of a TV that can do this stuff it's pretty obvious that things do in

40
00:02:44,680 --> 00:02:51,480
fact generally look smoother and more flowy than on a more run-of-the-mill set

41
00:02:49,760 --> 00:02:55,599
whether this is actually a good thing however will greatly depend on who you

42
00:02:53,120 --> 00:02:59,599
ask the words hyper real and soap oper like have been used to describe this

43
00:02:57,120 --> 00:03:03,480
effect as while things do look clearer and smoother many people perceive a

44
00:03:01,640 --> 00:03:08,440
definite fakeness to the resulting motion either because the technology

45
00:03:05,440 --> 00:03:10,480
isn't perfect or because some people are

46
00:03:08,440 --> 00:03:17,480
just used to lower frame rates making things look theatrical after all many

47
00:03:13,239 --> 00:03:19,120
movies are filmed and shown at 24 FPS

48
00:03:17,480 --> 00:03:24,080
and of course it's important to remember that many TVs that advertise

49
00:03:20,680 --> 00:03:26,959
refrigerates of 240 HZ 480 HZ or even

50
00:03:24,080 --> 00:03:31,000
higher often can't actually show nearly that many frames per second rather those

51
00:03:28,959 --> 00:03:35,120
are numbers that roughly indicate what the manufacturer claims the TV can

52
00:03:33,080 --> 00:03:39,959
simulate so I wouldn't recommend trying to build a 4 GPU rig and hook it up to a

53
00:03:37,400 --> 00:03:44,599
so-call 480 HZ television just so you can play TF2 at insan frame rates and

54
00:03:42,680 --> 00:03:49,560
make sure that you see every single head movement frame and Counter Strike that's

55
00:03:47,200 --> 00:03:55,040
not going to work but you could try and watch me gesticulate in more buttery

56
00:03:51,879 --> 00:03:58,120
smooth detail than ever before you

57
00:03:55,040 --> 00:04:00,879
should use squarespace's 24/7 support

58
00:03:58,120 --> 00:04:05,200
and live chat or email whatever if you have any troubles with your $8 a month

59
00:04:03,239 --> 00:04:09,439
website that you got a free domain with cuz you bought it for a year you should

60
00:04:07,439 --> 00:04:13,480
use things like their responsive design so that your website scales and looks

61
00:04:11,280 --> 00:04:18,320
great on any device and if you're looking for a job you should probably

62
00:04:15,760 --> 00:04:21,639
use their cover page module because it looks great if you're trying to sell

63
00:04:19,680 --> 00:04:25,199
something you should probably use their Commerce module they have modules for

64
00:04:23,479 --> 00:04:28,560
tons of different things that you could potentially want to use and if you're

65
00:04:26,880 --> 00:04:32,880
wondering and you're not entirely sure if you want to yet you you should start

66
00:04:30,360 --> 00:04:37,240
a trial with no credit card required and start building your website today when

67
00:04:35,680 --> 00:04:41,960
you decide to sign up for Squarespace you should make sure to use offer code

68
00:04:39,039 --> 00:04:45,960
Linus because you should get 10% off Squarespace you should all right guys I

69
00:04:44,560 --> 00:04:49,160
hope you liked the video if you liked it like it if you disliked it dislike it

70
00:04:47,680 --> 00:04:52,320
that's cool too if you guys want us to cover other stuff comment down below

71
00:04:51,120 --> 00:04:57,120
that would be awesome checko Channel Super Fun we recently did this cool

72
00:04:54,560 --> 00:05:00,160
thing with like the bubble things and you run around and hit each other and

73
00:04:58,440 --> 00:05:03,400
play soccer at the same time I don't know it was fun I got to hit people

74
00:05:02,280 --> 00:05:10,199
whenever I get to hit people I think it's fun to be completely honest does that make me a bad person I don't know

75
00:05:06,800 --> 00:05:13,880
also uh you know Techquickie subscribe

76
00:05:10,199 --> 00:05:13,880
that'd be cool see you
