Re: wht is the difference between p24 and p60? nt

Film is 24 frames per second(fps). Most HD discs are 24fps. To get it to 30 or 60 fps, the signal must be manipulated (3:2 pulldown). While this can be done quite well, its not perfect, leading to a distortion called Jutter. Getting a signal that is 24fps tends to be cleaner. Right now, very few sets can accpet 1080p24 those that do frequently convert it to a multiple of 24 (48 or 72) for viewing. Eventually, more will accept 1080p24, as manufacturers jump on the bandwagon.
Others here can give you a better explaination, but that is my basic and limited understanding.
