A default TV setting is ruining your viewing experience - here's the quick fix that experts recommend


Some gamers use motion smoothing to improve performance, but it can make movies and TV shows look unnatural. Here's how to turn it off.

Press the gear button on your remote, then follow this path: Display & Sounds > Advanced Settings > Action Smoothing. To be clear, there is a real reason to keep motion smoothing turned on, and that's to improve the appearance of fast-moving images, such as panning across a basketball court during a fastbreak or seeing every tracer bullet fly past your HUD in Call of Duty. By adding additional frames to the video, motion smoothing reduces blur and creates a sharper, clearer image, like during rapid camera movements or fast-moving action scenes.
