Should I assume that those living in North America should set it to 60Hz and those who live pretty much anywhere else should set it to 50Hz?
For those wondering why does it matter where you live, North America's electrical systems operate at 60Hz and televisions operate at a 60Hz (or multiples thereof) refresh rate. That's why NTSC delivers a frame rate of 30 fps (odd lines and even lines drawn each at 30 fps interlaced = 60Hz) . European TVs are at a 50Hz refresh rate. And that's why PAL delivers a frame rate of 25 fps.
But car cigarette lighters are DC. So does setting 50Hz vs 60Hz matter? If I'm using 1080/60fps, should I use 60Hz?
BTW, i'm not an electrical expert, but I think what I said is mostly true.
