Here is a second photo of the "Race Car Test" that shows how good the upscaling DVD player section of the Toshiba BDX3000is at detecting 3:2 source material. In other words, the video processor has to be able to dectect whether the source material is film based (24 frames per second) or video based (30 frames a second) and display the source material correctly on the screen, so as to avoid artifacts.
In the case of the race car and grandstand shown in this photo, if the video processor is poor the grandstand would display a moire pattern on the seats. However, if the upscaling DVD player section of the Toshiba BDX3000has good video processing, the Moire Pattern will not be visible or only visible during the first five frames of the cut.
As shown in this photo, the moire pattern is not visible as the image pans and the race car goes by. This indicates very good performance of the Toshiba BDX3000 with regards to accurate processing of film or video-based content containing detailed backgrounds and fast moving foreground objects.
For another sample of how this image should look, check out an example of this same test as performed by the OPPO Digital BDP-83 Blu-ray Disc Player from a previous review used for comparison.
For a sample of how this test should not look, check out an example of this same deinterlacing/upscaling test as performed by the Pioneer BFDP-95FD Blu-ray Disc Player, from a past product review.
