In fact you should probably add some (unless the original used a slow shutter speed). Without it, you'll get strobing.

But don't add ghosting by blending. It's not quite so bad on dumb CRTs, but as Didée says, modern TVs make it look horrible.

IMO even normal PC playback makes frame blending look extra horrible - I'm not sure why it looks worse. Maybe it's the non-integer conversion from 24fps to whatever refresh rate the monitor runs at lets some of the ghosted frames stay on screen for even longer than they should. (like pulldown, but not always regular/predictable).

Cheers,
David.
