Bet money on it being the garbage smooth frame stuff that pushed the TVs to fake 60 or 120fps by guessing frames. Even my newest 75" TV has this junk and makes the picture stutter enough that it drove me bonkers trying to turn it off - Google TV is awful for this but the TV also lets you fully turn it off on some ports.

This was a bit before that feature was really possible to implement cheaply enough to be in every tv. We're taking probably around 2003 or 2004 iirc.
