24p Cinema Movie viewing
:
Today's Movie makers shoot their Movies with 24
images per second (24p); conventional televisions (and also most DVDs) show 50
images per second (50 Hz). In order to play the Movie, the original number of
images is doubled and the Movie accelerated. That is optimum for sports broad-
casts, but it distorts the picture quality for calmer movies. The new Loewe TV sets
automatically reproduce 24p Movies in the original 24p format.
