High Frame Rate Video Conversion
SMPTE is discussing high frame rates within the UHDTV Study Group, and in particular, conversions from high frame rates to today's integer and fractional standards. — Although it seems an easy problem to up and down convert between frame rates when there is a simple multiplier e.g. between 119.88Hz and 59.94Hz, in this paper, we show that adequate quality results cannot be obtained by simple frame doubling or frame dropping. — We present a high quality, low complexity frame rate conversion method, suitable for all high frame rate conversions e.g. 120Hz to 59.94Hz or 50Hz to 120Hz, thereby obviating the need to include fractional frame rates in the UHDTV standard.
