"Another name for motion smoothing is "motion interpolation," and it can go by many names depending on a TV's manufacturer. Below is a quick guide indicating what to look for in your TV's menu and how to turn off motion smoothing after you've had your fill of March Madness. On most smart TVs, you can check the Picture settings for any feature that includes the word "motion." Once you find it, here's how to disable motion interpolation on various models."
Motion smoothing, also called motion interpolation, creates an artificial or hyper-realistic look often referred to as the 'soap opera effect.' Many viewers prefer disabling motion smoothing for films and scripted shows to preserve filmmakers' original intent and cinematic appearance. Motion smoothing is appropriate for fast-paced action such as live sports and gaming because it enhances motion clarity and smoothness. On smart TVs, motion options typically appear in Picture settings under names that include 'motion' or brand-specific terms like Samsung's 'Auto Motion Plus.' Users can navigate picture menus to locate and disable motion interpolation on their specific TV model.
