A new study of the Xbox One's TV integration from
HDTVTest has claimed that the feature is "broken in
Europe" as a result of the console's native 60Hz
juddering due to 50Hz playback for PAL signals.
The report, issued over the weekend, says the Xbox
One is designed for 60Hz TV output and does not
compensate for 50Hz PAL signals which affects Sky
and Virgin customers in the UK and users of similar
services elsewhere in Europe.
"The problem is that the native frame rate of the
Xbox One [being] 60Hz, but the United Kingdom
and Europe [using] a 50hz broadcasting system,
which is the result of the historical use of PAL
and SECAM analogue broadcasting systems.
"To display a 50Hz video signal on a 60Hz
system, a process called frame rate conversion
(FRC) needs to take place, which at the best of
times will incur some judder. Depending on the
implementation and also the original resolution
(720p or 1080i), viewers may notice dropped/
skipped frames or stutter especially during
panning shots in fast-action sports material such
as live football broadcast."
Not all users have reported juddering however it is
impacting many Xbox One owners. North American
users are unaffected as TV signals there are delivered
natively in 60Hz.
The Xbox One is the first console to feature a HDMI In
port and TV integration is considered a major part of
the system.
A number of issues have been affecting the Xbox
One including the disc drive, and long installation
times.
