The days of noticeable judder on Netflix could be coming to an end thanks to a cutting-edge algorithm developed in-house by an engineer named David Zheng.
According to a new post on the Netflix Tech Blog, what Zheng figured out is how to change the standard way 24fps content is transmitted from the service to your TV (a 60Hz or 120Hz screen) without repeating as many frames. The extra frames are the problem that creates the judder effect, so by reducing the amount of extra frames, Netflix has figured out how to reduce judder for several devices.
