Comment on ELI5: How does Frame Generation even work?
Bananskal@nord.pub 1 day agoIf you only use source image and motion vectors as input, so you’re essentially predicting instead of interpolating, surely that introduces some type of stuttering now and then due to correction which will be necessary eventually? Or am I misunderstanding it?

They don’t ever do more than 4 predicted frames per 1 full frame, and usually just 1:1

That and the game can flag frames that are too different (camera cuts) to mitigate this problem.
What the game supplies is the current frame + motion vectors, but the framegen bits take over how the frames are displayed onscreen. This is where the extra latency comes from, at worst you are seeing one true frame behind what the game is rendering, while the presentation layer generates the intermediate frame(s).
