thats cool

when i got my tv in like 09 or oh ten i had to turn off that soap opera thing

Now they do this aggravating thing where there is an option to turn off motion interpolation but it doesn't actually turn it off. You have to adjust like 3 other settings to get it to actually turn off.

I worked for Walmart years ago and about 3/4 of the "training" was them talking about how unions pretend to benefit workers but really gently caress them over and how you'd get fired for attempting to unionize. Also they made you do a little dance and cheer of the Walmart name. I worked 30 hours a week, six days with five hour shifts, just enough to be part time and not qualify for benefits. A previous job i had doing the same thing but in a unionised store paid 7.75 to start, Walmart paid 5.25. gently caress Walmart

It still comes on in a lot of 2013 Samsung sets even when you turn the Auto Motion Plus to OFF. The way to turn off almost all post processing is to rename the input PC. You'll magically see it conform to an sRGB gamma curve and denoising and sharpening gets turned off.

this is fun because each input has to have this set manually. also each "app" in the smart tv section has its own setting as well.

any kind of firmware update will reset all of it to motion fuckup mode too.
