As renewed as a baby born to middle life -Richard Ford.I’ve watched some catch up tv on now tv as well as movies and these show perfectly without any stuttering and all content on Netflix etc are all fine as well.Īny ideas if this is common or if there is a fix as nothing I’ve tried works. Its really bad watching football on free sat or now tv as it’s stutters quite a lot. I had all picture clarity settings set to off but I then played around with settings such as judder reduction and blur reduction etc to see if I could eliminate the stutter but nothing works. Once motion picks up or shot pans around then it goes back to normal. What happens is that when there is a small amount of motion on screen such as an interview or no panning etc then the screen shows something similar to the frame rate dropping in half and everything stuttering. So I assume it’s something to do with this frame rate. The Q90T is great in every way apart from when watching Freesat or Now TV. I came from a 2015 Samsung which had no frame rate issues at all.
