Cinema Mode
The frame rate of a movie film is generally 24
frames a second whereas the movie software
such as DVD, etc. that you enjoy watching on
television at home is 30 or 25 frames a second.
The difference in frame rate may cause flickers
whilst viewing the films on television; set the
Cinema Mode to convert the signal to reproduce
a smooth motion and picture quality
Thats from the manual. Would it improve in any way standard dvds or say avi files?0 -

Thanks Basil! No firmware update showing for my tv model-LG BLU RAY -downloaded to usb-followed instructions-jammed (ie stuck with 'upgrade' showing on display) twice. Had to power off machine-thankfully no damage! Anyone any ideas on what went wrong? Blu Ray is not wifi.0

update instructions you followed them you have to create a specific folder
http://www.lg.com/uk/support-product/lg-BD555#
you have to click software update tab then click on BD551_Upgrade_Instruction.pdf to down pdf go from there if still not working, suggest you need to use normal hdmi tv jack up with ethernet upgrade it that way and then go thru settings manually and then take back to your telly.
If that doesn't work it become either new telly issue or don't use the blu-ray until the telly goes and you are forced to get new telly0 -
Basil-yes-did create folder. To be honest I'm not going to try again for fear of cocking up blu-ray. Can't think of any reason to update as works fine. On Toshiba site there is no upgrade for my model. Blue-Ray not ethernet enabled. Thanks again for your advice!:beer:0

Yes - cinema mode is what you want in this instance. It could have referred to umpteen things, but in this case, it looks like it will give you the 24FPS screen that your 24FPS Blu-Ray is outputting to.
With this set, and all the gimmicky features off, you should have got rid of judder.
No matter whether you're watching a film on Blu-Ray, DVD or from loads of different file formats - the film was recorded at 24FPS. Playing BD and DVD from your BD player therefore, should always be at 24FPS (DVD might have been converted to 50HZ, back of each individual box might tell you!).
Files is a minefield as I've said, you'd have to ask the person who encoded it how they did it. Actually if you look in the properties of the file it might tell you. Look for frequency or FPS values, and try to match them on your hardware. Commonly: 50Hz (UKTV), 60Hz (USTV), 24FPS (film), 25Hz (cheating and trying to match 24FPS, doesn't work!).0 -
Thanks-all working spot on now! God...the h264 is SO SO clever-20-30gb down to 1.3-2g......how clever!0
