DVD 24p Conversion

Sets 24Hz frame rate conversion for DVD. This
option only applies to the HDMI output and is
available only when “1080p24 Output” is enabled
(set to Auto or On).

Many DVDs that originated from theatrical movies
are encoded using a method called “2:3 telecine” to
convert the 24 frames per second film to 60Hz video
signal. The Ayre DX-5

DSD

can convert the 60Hz

video signal back to 24 frames per second and
output as 1080p 24Hz.

Smoother motion can be achieved by enabling this
option, provided that both the display can operate at
an even multiple of 24Hz and the disc was sourced
from a theatrical release using “2:3 telecine”. The
available options are:

On – Convert DVD to 24Hz frame rate when
possible.

Off (default) – Do not convert DVD to 24Hz
frame rate.

The result of DVD 24p Conversion depends
heavily on the quality of the content. If the video
encoded on the DVD contains incorrect 2:3
cadence, cadence breaks caused by edits, or
heavy compression noise that can affect cadence
detection, the result may have motion judder or
frame tearing. Should this happen, you should
turn off DVD 24p Conversion and watch the
DVD in its original frame rate.
