This is what 3:2 pulldown settings on TVs are for. Built-in TV apps are also 60Hz. If you change this setting on the Shield you'll have to change it every time your source frame rate changes (TV series, KZfaq, etc) There are apps on the Shield that will do match frame rate functionality until the standard one is out of beta.

Plex has had an option to match framerate, and even without the Shield it will match 24hz. Also if you have proper 3:2 pulldown settings on your TV you'll avoid tearing/stuttering as well. This is especially handy for OLED's with fast pixel response times, and long hold times running at 60hz without content matching on can actually smooth out motion without having to use motion smoothing. While 3:2 pull down was mostly made for broadcast television where framerate matching was not an option it does work on other sources. On LG televisions this setting is called Real Cinema.

Plex matches the refresh rate automatically on the Nvidia Shield

I tried your setting at 24 fps and it's horrible The picture quality is laggy and the user interface stutters like crazy I put it back at 60 FPS and that's where I'm keeping it

You are absolutely on point my brother as I have been going through this problem. Nvidia shield tv pro should fix it. Thank you for your useful content.

The smarter way is to leave the Shield at 60Hz and setup the Plex client to frame rate switching.

Fantastic all fixed

How is your shield and Plex app so fast? My Plex app takes a while to load and is just pretty slow in general. I have gigabit but internet, and my shield is hardwired. Do you have any idea what could be going on there?

This is good information but bad advice. On an nvidia shield pro + 4k TV setup, movies are not the only content people watch. TV streaming, games, webseries, youtube ALL have 60fps or higher, they get completely messed up @24fps ( just checked & reverted to 60). Maybe there is a way to uprate 24fps data to 60fps at the player level. Been watching movies forever on 60fps set on shield, did not notice anything half as bad as how the TV channels & webseries looked at 24fps.

Brilliant job bro. I'd like to go into a lot more detail with you on this topic

Right so I had another check on the pro and I don't believe your suggestion is correct. The match frame rate option on the shield is working. At least it is for me. Firstly you need to start playing the content then use the quick settings option to launch match frame rate (beta). The shield should then auto adjust to the content playing. I've tested this with a few apps and it works perfectly. Your suggestion toset to 23.976 will cause the ui and any content not at 23/24 fps to stutter

Thank you!

Plex already has at the time of making this video with refresh rate matching with the Nvidia Shield. Just enable it in the app settings and keep your system at 59.940hz. Plex will automatically switch to 24hz , 30hz 60hz or whatever your video frame rate is.

so using your netflix app to watch shows and movies you should use this? or is this only for like hollywood movies?

THANK YOU.

Great Video! Will be trying this out on my a80j

Cons AI upscaling while streaming effects lag and responsiveness

You could also map the "match frame rate" option to one of the "tri-bar" button press movements. For example, I removed the triple press for AI Demo mode and replaced with match frame rate. I leave mine on the 59.9hz, then use "match frame rate" button if a movie is 24p. This does break playback in some apps, and will blank the screen + pause the video, then revert to your default frame rate. On these apps it has to be done your way.

Took me a long time to figure out I was watching wrong I can see the clarity now.

Hi ! can you please do a video on USB playback of HEVC format movies with HDR10 and TrueHD in Nvidia Shield TV.

Hello. Hawe lg c1 and nvidia shield tv. What hdmi input icon should i set?

Hi. I have 3 x 5Tb Usb drives plugged straight into my LG C1 4K Tv. I watch all my movies (1080p & 4k) that way, through the C1's own Media Player. What does an Nividia Shield Pro do that my Tv's media player can't do please?

I changed the frame rate when using kodi and it did not change.But when i closed down Kodi and changed the frame rate and restarted Kodi the frame rate changed.Hope this helps.

Can i use a SanDisk Ultra Fit 512GB USB 3.1 Flash Drive in the SHIELD TV Pro 2019 ?

Ycbcr 4:2:2 = 50% of quality, Ycbcr 4:4:4 =100% quality. 8bit color is ok , 12 bit color is awesome

Does the same happen on the local apps on Sony Android TV? Is there something that I can do to enable the frame rate matching?

Is this your plex server or the plex streaming web app? I have a shield and cant get hdr working on the regular plex streaming app. Alao do you use your shield with the LGC1? I know youtube hdr is not supported with the shield.

Nvidia shields are amazing imo

i don't get 5.1 pcm.only stereo. and when its working with pcm 5.1 the voice is in center and front speakers... terrible

No way full judder in 24

I doubt Nvidia is doing much of anything to improve the SHIELD. That Match Framerate Beta thing has been there since it was released over 2 yrs ago.

Has this been fixed with the newer updates?

Hey buddy ppllease little help i want want find a true motion player at 60fps for Nvidia shield pro but i cant can you help me find please?

Hi what is your sync on the shield 0 or 50ms

I'd like to get some advice on Enabling HDR content on KZfaq Through a PC laptop using a NVIDA card. I get a lot Frame tearing and skipping. But only watching HDR In 4k . I have new LG C1 Oled

For your movie files do you use m2ts or mkv?

Waiting for this to be updated with earc

I'm assuming roku doesn't do this either?

A new shield with HDMI 2.1 features like VRR would finally get match framerate out of beta I imagine.

Umm when u change this the shield ui slows down

Hello. Why it is google tv? Nvidia shield pro should be android tv 9?

With this setting, do you turn off cinema screen on the LG?

huh refresh rate in Hz is not the same as the frame rate! this is completely wrong. 24 fps is the number of frames per second the film was shot. It has nothing to do with the refresh rate. In fact you want a higher refresh rate 60HZ or more the less stuttering. For games generally 120Hz works best.

Green button action as you did available on C9

have u heard of kodi

You newd to activate The framerat mach...

👍😁👍

this is wrong setting the output on shield tv to only 24 the ui is laggy just go into settings on plex and click on match frame rate and your done plex will then go from 60 on the ui to 24 when watching a movie

All you need to do is turn on refresh rate switching in Plex.

When you have movie files and use a player for that the player has 24 fps option likely. Likely that can be seen in info. For instance VLC player is open and movie is running tick ok button twice and you will get acces to several options one of which is info where you can see if it is running at 24fps. Important is to check! If you use 60p for movies in general this will impact motion in a negative way, most noticeable in challenging motion scenes, also the look will be cheaper. So do not use it with movies. There is also a ''rec 709'' for HD setting twice which needs to be activated both i think. One is in normal menu and one is in developer menu (About - Build - click 5 times to open Developer (i read) - Enable Developer Option - set ''rec 709'' On). If you do not do this there will be more red in faces for instance than suppost to be (a bug).
