Frame lost or Blur

Dear All

I need your guidance its very strange when i play movie on K i found of course video quality is superb but at same time i get blury edges on some scenses especially on fast moving scenes or around subtitles. It seems that some image quality on edges are lost or blured for some fast pace scenes for milliseconds. When i play same movie on apple tv it runs smooth.

So i am gueesing because K is such high Quality you notice every image blur or quality issue while on streaming you dont relize because its compressed. is this you notice same on some movies ? What is your experience with K on motion blur. I ordered MADVR Extreme i heard it can get rid of these affect. I think its called motion AI in MADVR which is motion interpolation. But my point is why I notice this more on K as compared to other streaming behavior ?

Please suggest ? so this means all of us do need some video processing like MADVR with K?
 
Check the framerate of the video while playing for both K and ATV. I´m assuming the ATV is playing at a higher framerate and the Strato plays with the original movie framerate.
 
A MadVR is a very expensive fix for something that the Director and DP know is baked into their content. If they were concerned, they'd alter the camera movement. The AppleTV shows less of an effect because of the compression.

Different display types also struggle more with it. What is your display?

As DieZwei indicated, forcing your Kaleidescape to output 60p instead of switching to the content frame rate can also help.
