Film Mode - Movie film has a frame rate of 24 frames per second, while video is recorded at 30 frames per second, with each video frame made up of 2 fields. This makes transferring movies to video rather complex. The result is that some video frames consist of fields from two different film frames. Depending on the amount of motion taking place in the programming, these video frames can cause the picture to jitter or flicker. Mitsubishi's Film Mode detects these frames and applies motion adaptive technology to stabilize the picture. The result is a smoother, more continuous appearance to video that originated from film.
