Judder and flicker are entirely different though. A 'normal' UK TV will run at 25fps, the HD movie will be sourced at 24fps. There's a missing frame when showing the 24fps on a 25fps TV and this can cause the judder effect people describe that should not be apparent if you get a 24fps compatible TV.
Cheers fella, much appreciated, thought that was the case, but then thought, maybe I have to have this option turned on and I missed something . Nice one.

Now to get back to enjoying this TV... and have to say it's fantastic!
