This update also seems to break motion smoothing / Motionflow. Settings seem to be on, even though all settings are still disabled.

Even did a factory reset...

Picture looks like ***** with this soap opera effect! Looking for a way to downgrade. Is that possible?

Yeah, but that’s the problem. I had Motionflow and the setting on the bottom both disabled as I hate how unnaturally smooth motions look with it enabled.

After the update, the settings look as if they still are disabled but when I play back an episode of game of thrones the unnatural smoothness is immediately apparent 😩.

Now, when I toggle the Motionflow setting between off and high, there is no visual difference.

Which setting do you mean? One of the names options listed under Motionflow/film mode. Mine is set to Dutch so I don’t see the exact wording.

Both are are set to off, but I tried all the options after the firmware update to try and get the smoothing to go away.

Before the the latest firmware Motionflow was set to off and film mode was on. Problems started after the update.

Yes in menu it is disabled but visually it looks like it’s enabled: over the top smooth motions. Like mentioned here https://www.cnet.com/news/tom-cruise-fights-the-soap-opera-effect-for-mission-impossible-fallout-blu-ray/#ftag=CAD-00-10aag7d

Hi I normally have standard for motionflow but noticed after update that its using smooth. So basically they are the same setting. Its annoying as the soap opera effect is awful! I am using true cinema for now but it's quite stuttery. Hoping for a fix soon!

Re: 5.433.01 firmware

romeo_kii — Wed, 01 May 2019 20:07:02 GMT

hiya i use true motion too, cant see any stutter , but i always keep fim mode off , now that causes stutter loll
