Topic: PSA: Motion Smoothing on Android/iPh is finally here! Details inside..
We all know SVP does not support Android / iPhone (yet). However, new discovered SOFTWARE and newly developed HARDWARE now allow you to do motion smoothing on mobile devices...
1.
OnePlus and OPPO phones now have 120Hz AMOLED screens and officially support motion smoothing in a veriaty of popular apps such as youtube/netflicks/VLC etc.

Furthermore, I have discovered a gem of a player for (almost) ALL modern Android and iPhone devices which natively supports frame rate interpolation using shared SVP libraries.
The player is called MPV Player and is available on the app store. Simply go into the options while a video is not playing, and enable Interpolation under the Video settings to have it interpolate the FPS and sync to your display refresh. It will depend on the power of your mobile device of course, but my testing shows that it consumes not-too-significant CPU/memory/battery to be noticeable - the biggest battery drain will always be your screen no matter what video player you use; with or without motion interpolation.
The player is also very powerful in that you can edit the config file under the advanced settings to add things like a sharpening filter (I have added SHARPENING=5.0 - I am now blown away by detail; I often wonder why players don't have this feature enabled by default because it adds so much.
for devs or tech folk, the guthub manual etc are here:
