Does xbox one interpolate/blend/dissolve between frames?

If the judder only happens during fast motion, it's probably a limitation in the MCFI (Motion Compensated Frame Interpolation) motion estimation. It has to search and match parts of each frame against one or more successive frames to establish the direction
of motion, and this is done within a limited area.

Anything that moves too fast, and thus a greater distance between frames than the MCFI's motion estimation searches across, will force the TV to temporarily revert from MCFI to simple frame repetition or blending.

I'm not sure if there is a consumer level MCFI system yet that can handle fast moving games respectably.

Older TV's that have a '120Hz mode' are generally not true 120Hz displays. They do this by using a technique called frame interpolation. Frame interpolation is a process of inserting artificial frames between the original frames of a video signal. This creates the illusion of a smoother, more fluid image.



Frame interpolation works by analysing the motion of the previous and next frames in a video signal. The TV then uses this information to create a new frame that is halfway between the two original frames. This new frame is then inserted into the video signal, creating the illusion of a higher frame rate.



This is only useful when watching certain TV broadcast content such as sport as the image may appear more smooth and possibly less blurred. However, it can, and often does, include artifacts. And, when the action is too fast, additional blurring and even ghosting can affect the output.



You should not enable any TV post processing when playing games as this will cause severe input lag. It won't feel smooth at all.

There are no 120Hz games on Xbox One S. The 120Hz option was added as this is part of the feature set of the Variable Refresh rate technology feature added in around 2018. VRR syncs the display refresh rate with the game frame rate on compatible displays. This can prevent screen tearing.

[quote user="Deyen"]So less compensation will help with picture quality?[/quote]In-game, you don't want motion compensation/motion flow/motion anything. For movies and TV, those settings create interpolated frames in between the ones that are received by
the TV. Doing that adds latency because the TV has to queue up a few frames from the video source, examine them to build in-between frames to "smooth" the video, then it has to display those frames. The queueing process introduces latency. In a game, you don't
want the TV trying to generate frames out of thin air to fit between the ones received from the 360.

This is already built into your TV.

Real time frame interpolation is absolute garbage, and soon filmmakers eill be able to disable it. No, not even the Xbox has the power to so it properly, and even then it would look awful. Professional suites for this purpose use extremely powerful computers
and multiple passes and manual adjustments to get it right.

Hi,

I‘m aware that this is already implemented in TV. But I‘m owning an Epson 9400 (5050) but the frame interpolation on that device is not working properly. So with the power of the xbox maybe that could be an advantage.
