Hi what are your recommendations for flexible software for 24fps blu ray playback on multiple monitor configurations
(laptop screen fixed 60hz, secondary screen 24hz p2270hd, hdtv supporting 50/60hz)
50hz needs frames sent twice and 5% speed-up
60hz needs successive frames sent for 3 and 2 refreshes giving associated judder
72,120hz need frames sent 3,5 times
Contenders seem to be

1. anydvdhd has benefit of giving multiregion playback
2. can try genuine frame interpolation for 50/60hz http://www.tested.com/news/how-to-enable-motion-interpolation-on-your-movie-files/329/
I do not have sufficient cpu horsepower for this; anyway sky hd apparently adopts speed up approach
(maybe they have better s/w than re-clock for audio speed-up)
3. previous thread discusses (free-ware) makemv5 ripper; can this be used to rip blu-ray sufficiently fast and then playback with mpc-hc
but need lots of free disc space (it appears makemv5 is no no longer free from September so benefit gone)
4. concern for native windvd/powerdvd/tmt3 24hz/50hz support is that the data is always sent at 60hz and get image tearing.
5. powerdvd & tmt3 apparently work with reclock (windvd does not) so maybe they can do 50Hz or ... reclock just gives them basic 60hz vsync
capability ?
5. (other than interpolation) no good/judder-free solution for 60hz laptop
... are there laptops with changeable frequency
Perhaps there are other significant distinctions between players.
- interface on mpc-hc is less elegant than winddvd/powerdvd/tmt3 but multi-region benefit seems to make it compelling
- anydvdhd has regular updates for new AACS/encryption keys
- ability of players to exploit hardware acceleration
