Why do modern tv’s struggle so much with vertical stripes

438 views

My Sony bravia tv has, apparently best in class motion processing but struggles massively with vertical lines in any scene. Think Venetian blinds, wood panelling etc

Why?

Do you have any motion interpolation features turned on? Repeating patterns like stripes or grids play havoc with those. If the camera moves approximately the same distance as (or a multiple of) the repetition interval of the pattern, the interpolator is going to have difficulty telling the difference between that and if the camera had moved by a different multiple, or not at all, when trying to draw an in-between frame.

Otherwise it might just be artifacting caused by the compression used on the source video.
