I'm up, and thanks for the blur information. I have an LED not LCD, but I'm sure they're similar. Interestingly, as I said, the store player said 1080p at 60hz, my home one says 1080p at 24hz, but I was told that the store player was on its factory settings - since I haven't changed anything on mine, they, too, should be on the factory settings - I think I'll call Samsung. And yes, the new TVs have that motion blur thing at 120hz for smooth motion. But there is definitely blur and SOME images - which I did not see in the store at all, but then maybe the test discs they were using didn't show blur as much. At home here, sometimes it's the entire right side of the screen from top to bottom, and sometimes it's at the top or bottom of the screen all the way across. Again, it's really sporadic and only lasts a second. None of the Blu-Rays I've looked at had what I would call film look, no matter how old the film. They all look like they were shot yesterday with a hi-def camera - it's amazingly sharp, though. I had one of the settings on "movie" instead of standard, but all that did was make the image darker and more yellow - as you know, I don't cotton to yellow.
MattH, can you talk me through changing the 120hz to whatever you think will make it look more like film - just so I can see the difference. And also anything else I should be doing, like whether keeping the 24hz or changing to 60hz and how to do that.
For Druxy, I'll be interested to hear what he has to say when he watches a Blu-Ray disc because he has the same TV as me and I'm sure he hasn't futzed with the settings.
