I have the same "problem" looking out my lounge window every days end.
The new plasma display sits in the corner beckoning me to watch. But my
eyes are drawn across the bay to the distant snow covered mountains and
the setting sun.

Now that I've been "educated" on this issue of flicker, I note with a
bit of research that Europeans apparently can suffer a similar annoyance
problem with film judder due to 3:2 pull down that, according to the
document I'm reading, does not affect Americans as they have "grown used
to it from childhood"

Alas, yes.  We were shooting in Wellington and also noticed it in hotels
in Fox Glacier, Haast, Dunedin, and Christchurch.

But it was hard to think about watching TV in such a wonderful place.

TTFN,
