Guys I'm pretty sure the reason why this makes a difference, and why it CAN show up when recorded on camera and played back on your shitty PC screen..... is that your eyes, or your camera, could hit the screen right in the middle of one of its refreshes... if the framerate is lower 50/60Hz, the chances of this happening could be fairly high... sure, once your eyeshave stuck on the screen for a few microseconds the picture is smooth... however this isn't so with a camera recording device, which is doing digital frames per second... it could be synced in such a way that the camera is recording a frame, every time, at the same time as the 50Hz TV is in the middle of a refresh.... and this is often the case..
So... bump it up to 200Hz, and you're far far far less likely to ever hit the TV in a refresh state, either with eyes or a camera.
The new FiOS HD DVR, arguably the biggest update since Verizon released a DVR, thanks to its external storage support, enhanced multi-room functionality and slick new 16x9 HD user interface.
