You should also probably get out of your "rewired" brain, move into 2015 and superglue your eyelids open. Because every time you blink you miss seeing a frame.
Seriously though, unless you are just concentrating on trying to find a frame skip you should see no perceivable difference in 23.976 & 24. If you concentrating that much, then you should really try to relax a little more and just enjoy your video.
My TV is 6 month old (2014 model) but I disable all sorts of smoothing/enhancements.
Even though that TV's are becoming better at adding extra frames to smooth the video, I have yet to watch a TV that does this without introducing weird artifacts once in a while..
To be honest, I am a bit nit-picky, but it really annoys me when I see that frame skip,
and I can't see how moving into 2015, or rewire my brain changes anything.
If I really didn't care about the quality of the output, I would buy a cheap-ass TV, use the TV's speakers, and buy an Android stick for 35$ on ebay.
And I would probably not rip my blu-rays, because why would I.
For me, 2015 is not about accepting frame-skipping, down-sampling of DTS-HD to DTS or Stereo, tech that only works sometimes.
it's about not accepting it. I don't want to accept any of that stuff. I want to justify why I have a 10-Bay NAS server, for my 30Gb+ Bluray rips (for each movie of-course), why I spend month ripping those same movies, why I bought a $1000 Media Center, and why I choose XBMC/Kodi to present it all, and the time I spend perfecting the universal remote, so that my system can be turned on and used by a 7 year old, without being introduced to any of it.
But while we are at it, if 2015 (or the last couple of years) have thought us anything, is that we ARE becoming more and more nit-picky, and we pay more for quality products. (Apple? HTC? Samsung (S6)?)
