Good content strategy, bad frame rate. – The CW Review

It’s great that the app doesn’t require sign-in to watch. Though, the app is really annoying because it doesn’t seem to remember where I’ve left off in episodes from one session to the next. But, my biggest complaint is the frame rate is awful on Apple TV 4K. I have match frame rate turned on, and the streams play at 60fps and you can tell it’s jittery. If I manually change the system settings to 4k24hz, video is way better. It seems the app doesn’t support the match frame rate API, or maybe it sticks to 60 for the ads inserted into streams? Either way - you can tell the frame rate isn’t quite... right. Makes me wonder if this is how it looks when broadcast via cable - jittery? It’s close. But just not quite right.
