sorry if this is a newbie problem, but i wasn't aware of this before at all.
i use my notebook as source-player for hdtv-content that i attached through vga to my dlp-tv screen.
i sync with 50hz because at 1280x720 this is the only available refresh rate the graphics card provides.
when i play normal pal dvds everything is fine (they have 25 fps), but as soon as i try to play some avi-files where the frame rate is 23.96 or 24 i get slight frame jumps, about 2 times per second, regardless of which player i am using. it is only visible in constant and smooth camera-pans or with smooth motion, it is not that obvious with static scenes, or when only small parts of the whole image move.
i assume this is because of syncing the 24 fps to 50hz, which doesn't work too well.
is this a common problem or is something weird going on here? when i change the resolution to something lower like 1024x768 i have also 60hz available and the jumping frames are not visible anymore, although i have the impression as if they were still there from time to time.
is there a way to force a movie always play with 25 fps? are there some options i can set with mpc or other players?
any help kindly appreciated!
thanks a lot!
