[QUOTE="ejschultz, post: 6156789, member: 603800"] Yes, the reason TVs have 120 Hz processors is for programming that is recorded in 24p. most TV programming and DVDs are 60p (60 frames per second). Blurays are 24p (24 frames per second). A standard 60 Hz processor will have no motion issues with a 60p signal.
