Sky sports UHD has periodic blurring
Hi
I have a 55 inch Hisense TV connected to Sky Stream. I'm getting well over 500gig fibre broadband speed.
When watching the football on the wider camera (not the close up action) parts of the picture of the pitch itself simply bloom out of focus and go blurry for a moment.
It's like they've got a mucky lens or something.
The issue doesn't affect the players or pixelates in any way and I've all picture processing agents switched off.
It was the same last night watching UHD football on the Discovery Plus app via Steam too.
I don't get this issue anywhere else..

I've included an image of what I mean.
I've marked up where the artefacting is taking place.

Thanks for the reply.
Judder is set to off as I believe it only applicable to "apps" is that correct?

Re: Sky sports UHD has periodic blurring
I have a had a number of mid to high range Hisense TVs over the last decade or so and use one now with one of my Sky Stream Pucks.
I always turn off the smooth motion and the eco options and run it with Flimmaker mode.
Mind, have seen mentions that for some Hisense models, it has been recommended to have motion smoothing set in a medium or low setting to help in some viewing scenarios.
Might be worth trying that and see if it helps reduce the effects you are seeing.
