Re: Question on transcode 24-25 fps videos for 60 hertz displays.

Ideally your video must have frame rate equal to display refresh rate.
In this case each frame will be shown once at every display picture refreshing.
So if you have movie with 2 hours length and 60 fps video your display will make 60*60*60*2 refreshes and will show 60*60*60*2 frames. It will give you maximum smoothness.

If framerate is lower then display will show some frames two times in a row. You will see micro freezes (stops) in movements.
If framerate is higher then display will bypass some frames. You will see micro jumps in movements.
