TV purchase: what does CMR mean?

• The abbreviation "CMR" stands for "Clear Motion Rate". CMR values ​​often appear on Samsung TVs. With the introduction of the J series, however, the CMR was replaced by the PQI.
• The CMR consists of the refresh rate, the backlight control and the image processor.
• For example, a 100 Hz TV can have a CMR of 400 because the frame rate is multiplied by other factors.
• Before buying a TV, you should therefore carefully read its specifications. An indication of 400 Hz CMR does not correspond to a "real" 400 Hz, since the factors described above are included.
