I am wondering how it's better for some and just as bad for others?

 

 

 

 

We have been told the frame reduction was to allow compatibility to some devices. Maybe the devices used are part of that group? I also see changes in latest content. I also see improvements on devices that are not to the TV, tablet, laptop. BUT, while I can improve matters with TV motion settings, on the latest WTA final, no settings matter, its all good. As it was before this all started. That tells me that new content might all be fine, but the older is already created as the lesser fps version. I checked Wimbledon, that wasn't great. But it supports my feeling that new content might now be ok, old is still what it ended up as. All supposition, but thats exactly what I see. You said yours is no better, can you check the WTA Final? Both on a tablet or PC and to a TV? 

 

 

It doesn't make sense that some content would be ok and others not. They won't have been able to dictate to the original broadcasters to change anything, so they can only have manipulated the stream themselves, but it's less likely they did that and surely more likely they are just applying a filtering to the stream in some way. I can't profess to have internal knowledge of how they are handling it, but I guess you could check and see if content before the 30fps drop looks fantastic like it did before. I'll bet it probably doesn't.

 

Further more the content I was having trouble with was content from years ago.

 

I'll check that specific stream tomorrow evening if I get time, but logically I don't think it's going to be that content during certain timeframes should look different to others.

 

 

 

Ok, its only my observations, others are seeing this also. The content is not from the original broadcaster, its from iStreamPlanet, who obtain the broadcasters feed, encode it, send it to Akamai. If problem content is still a problem but the latest versions of the sport are a lot better, that makes me assume we are seeing newer improved content. If any filtering was done locally them all content would change you would think.
