I have not been on here for most of this year, but.....
I'm posting this reluctantly, but I don't know what else to do as I cannot find an answer on the web.
If I have perfect natural motion set to on, on my 9664, everything looks strange, speeded up and unwatchable (and everyone who has seen my TV feels like this). Hand motions are terribly strange, auras are common and patterns are dragged and disturbed. It all looks speeded up, though clarity and motion are great. If I have PNM switched off then pans create 'chattering' and flickering edges. I can put up with a bit of inherent judder as CRTs show this in pans often, but why do I have to have this skipping back and forth of edges and lack of focus?
I just cannot live with the completely unnatural look of the perfect natural motion (ironic name?). Are all 9664s like this or do I have a dud? I thought at first it was because I only had normal def Sky and DVD through a SCART and I had some reasurace that this was the case on this very forum, but BRs are just the same through HDMI. Some things are worse than others, but it never goes away. Last night on Dragon's Den (BBC2) with the N.Motion off, during the medium speed pans across the Dragons, the chattering and dancing was terrible. Theo's jacket and tie looked like part of an acid trip.
This was not a cheap telly and we bought it because of the glowing reviews and the fact it looked amazing in the shop. We did do lots of research. Where did we go wrong?
I feel we got the wrong telly (and it is so good in EVERY other way). I like Ambilight, I love the design and the picture (when not panning or no hand held camera) is amazing. I would not buy a Philips again though. I miss our Loewe Aconda something terrible.
