television marketing nonsensical terminology or TMNT for short is an
acronym that we made up here at lonus Media Group to describe all of the
overtop terms TV manufacturers use to describe their products refresh rates
these are usually simple to spot as they mostly consist of an adjective slapped
onto the word motion such as true motion
Aqua motion or clear motion but do these
proprietary rating systems actually deliver the image quality that we want
for any who might be unfamiliar with what exactly a screen's refresh rate is
you can watch our video explaining it in depth right up here but basically it's
the amount of times a screen can update the still images that it strings
together to create motion in a single second with the standard refresh rate
being 60 HZ meaning 60 images or 60
Cycles since most video sources don't exceed that limit demand for faster
refresh rates has mostly remained among higher grade enthusiasts and
professionals but recently consumers have been looking for ways to reduce
image degrading effects such as the motion blur seen in high-speed moving
images which often is a result from a display's inability to refresh quickly
enough so how do these high refresh rate Technologies with the funny names try to
solve this problem not surprisingly they employ different forms of visual
trickery as you can't exactly extract 120 frames per second out of something
that was only recorded at 60 or even 30 HZ instead these TVs will fool your eyes
into thinking that the refesh fresh rate is higher in some way one common
technique is called backlight strobing which works by doing something slightly
differently from a normal LCD monitor modern flat panel displays show motion
by doing something called sample and hold which means it will display a
static image on screen for a full 160th
of a second or however long its refresh rate is before loading the next one
backlight strobing works by only turning on the display's backlight for a
fraction of a display cycle and instead
just show a black screen for some portion of that cycle this creates the
illusion of more frames and therefore smoother motion another tactic is called
black frame insertion which works uh much the same way except instead of
turning off the backl the display just shows a black frame other TVs instead
use motion interpolation which involves a processor inside the display
generating intermediate frames that are inserted between actual frames from the
video Source because these generated frames are what the eye might expect to
see such as a moving car halfway between point A and B this also makes everything
appear smoother but how well does this actually work if you've ever been in
front of a TV that can do this stuff it's pretty obvious that things do in
fact generally look smoother and more flowy than on a more run-of-the-mill set
whether this is actually a good thing however will greatly depend on who you
ask the words hyper real and soap oper like have been used to describe this
effect as while things do look clearer and smoother many people perceive a
definite fakeness to the resulting motion either because the technology
isn't perfect or because some people are
just used to lower frame rates making things look theatrical after all many
movies are filmed and shown at 24 FPS
and of course it's important to remember that many TVs that advertise
refrigerates of 240 HZ 480 HZ or even
higher often can't actually show nearly that many frames per second rather those
are numbers that roughly indicate what the manufacturer claims the TV can
simulate so I wouldn't recommend trying to build a 4 GPU rig and hook it up to a
so-call 480 HZ television just so you can play TF2 at insan frame rates and
make sure that you see every single head movement frame and Counter Strike that's
not going to work but you could try and watch me gesticulate in more buttery
smooth detail than ever before you
should use squarespace's 24/7 support
and live chat or email whatever if you have any troubles with your $8 a month
website that you got a free domain with cuz you bought it for a year you should
use things like their responsive design so that your website scales and looks
great on any device and if you're looking for a job you should probably
use their cover page module because it looks great if you're trying to sell
something you should probably use their Commerce module they have modules for
tons of different things that you could potentially want to use and if you're
wondering and you're not entirely sure if you want to yet you you should start
a trial with no credit card required and start building your website today when
you decide to sign up for Squarespace you should make sure to use offer code
Linus because you should get 10% off Squarespace you should all right guys I
hope you liked the video if you liked it like it if you disliked it dislike it
that's cool too if you guys want us to cover other stuff comment down below
that would be awesome checko Channel Super Fun we recently did this cool
thing with like the bubble things and you run around and hit each other and
play soccer at the same time I don't know it was fun I got to hit people
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
also uh you know Techquickie subscribe
that'd be cool see you
