Is pulldown nessessary in FFDshow if my monitor is 72Hz ?

[McCauley]

Hi,

let's put it simply - YES!
If no pulldown is applied framerate should be 60Hz (59.94 to be precise) or a multiple of it. If pulldown is aplied it should be 24Hz (23.976) or a multiple of it.

Hi McCauley,

Using this code below. And when the DVD uses Pulldown.
It doesn't matter if my refresh rate is 72Hz, or 60Hz.
It doesn't matter if I use Reclock or not.
The movie playback is smooth.

SetMemoryMax(1024)
AssumeTFF() # If it stutters try AssumeBFF instead of AssumeTFF.
Telecide(chroma=false)

decimate() # Delete this line if your playing a pal dvd, or if changing TFF to BFF doesn't stop the stutter.

MT("LimitedSharpenFaster(ss_x=1.4, ss_y=1.4, Smode=3, strength=250, overshoot=0, soft=60)",3)
ColorMatrix(Mode="Rec.601->Rec.709",clamp=false,threads=2)

Maybe it's smooth playback using pulldown regardless of the refresh rate because of Decomb ?

This decomb setting deinterlaces a little, I understand ?
