It's not the 120hz refresh, rather the filling in of that rate with interpolated frames.  They are related, but not the same.  Also keep in mind that it's not always well implemented.

It's like 3D.  Some people like it and others hate it.  If you like feeling like the actors are in the room with you (eg. live performance) then the interpolation is pretty cool.  My projector has an option for it, and it's considered to be well implemented on the model I have.  With this unit, there are several levels of intensity available and I usually set it at the middle.  Just enough to smooth out some of the pans and scrolls, but not so much as to go "full soap" on the movie.  You also need a receiver that has a programmable delay on the output, as the frame interpolation takes time to process.

yeah, unfortunately my reciever doesn't have this ability. I have the option (which i would like to use) is to set my TV as the "center" speaker and the audio output on the TV as The left and rights... the slight delay between the outputs and the TV speakers is killer... i had to shut off the TV speakers. :angry: :dunno
