[MPlayer-users] using 3:2 pulldown

[Ismo Tanskanen]

Hi,

I live in pal land and I use my projector at 25hz frame rate.
I can also use it with 30hz.
24hz is not supported :(

I watch a lot of 23.97hz hd movies, and picture is a bit jerky because
of frame rate differences.

I think using 3:2 pulldown should make picture more smoothly?
I tried mplayer -vf pulldown , but it makes video a way too fast.
Maybe I should tell mplayer my real refresh rate?

Is there a way to make picture even a little smoothly? I know this is
not performance issue, as I only watch 720p videos and I have amd 5400+
X2 cpu. Cpu usage newer exceeds 50%.

I also tried vdpau with latest nvidia drivers and GF9500 card, but it
didn't certainly help.

This is what I get when starting mplayer (without pullup filter):
