In what ways will I be hurt if I use a Gamepad encoder rather than keyboard?

Do the gamepad encoders.  I use them in all my builds including my personal machines.  AWESOME, completely awesome!

ultimate nickpicks: animation is not choppy because of the video framerate; it's choppy because animators do not animate 24 or 30 frames for every second. Many animators do less than half that.

TV is 30 frames a sec, film is 24.

Does live-action TV look choppy to you?

3D animation is generated by the computer, not hand-drawn, so there can easily be different information on every screen refresh, even at high frame rates.   "Chop" is visible, even at 30 fps or more.  Theoretically, you shouldn't ever see a twitch in the action unless the framerate drops below 24fps but,  it doesn't, yet you do.

Compared to computers, the video signal of a standard NTSC TV is mush  There is so much blurring, bleeding, interlace and noise, it just kind of blends together from one frame to the next, so it's a lot better at covering it up.  And BTW, I can sometimes sense the flicker of a film projector, and it's pretty annoying.  I don't think I've ever seen a film that was in razor-sharp focus either, so that probably helps.  :)
