Can someone explain to me why normal DVDs run at 50Hz on my PS3, but the default frequency for Blu-Ray discs is 60Hz?
I realise that 24Hz is the optimal setting for films on Blu-Ray discs (which I normally have selected), but as a point of interest can someone explain to me why 60Hz looks so much more juddery than 50Hz and why the PS3 (or any other player?) outputs Blu-Ray at the more jerky 60Hz instead of the seemingly smoother 50Hz of regular DVDs?
