I'm glad that this is bringing attention to flicker sensitivity.

Here are some other things that people are sensitive to: - CRI on white LEDs (and flourencents). CRI is how clean the spectrum is in comparison to the sun or a incandescent bulb, where the specturm is completely even.

- Motion blur Motion blur on LCDs (such as ~50% of Nintendo Switch 2s) can hurt eyes trying to keep track of what is going on.

On the other end is motion stutter on OLEDs. Because of sample-and-hold, the blur goes away but the image stutters on slow moving scenes instead. If your eyes are sensitive to PWM (mine are) it's quite annoying to watch OLED movement as well.

Is that what I'm seeing on my LG C series? Every so often when I'm watching streaming video, and the scene changes, the action seems to skip frames for maybe a quarter of a second. It happens rarely enough that I haven't narrowed it down to the TV, the attached Chromecast, the streaming app, or the content.

The only setting I recall changing on the TV is the one that stops the soap-opera effect.

This os fairly fixable with post processing in your video player. For non video things, it goes away at higher framerates.

		Yes but then you introduce a soap opera effect. There's no silver bullet outside of BFI but that also causes flicker.
