Ah, good point, I was only thinking about frames presented when I wrote that (display at 23.976 Hz v.s. 120 Hz). madVR has to dither and calibrate a lot fewer frames than it presents, even with smooth motion, and it always presents the same number of frames at the same refresh rate (D3D11 and present every v-sync).

Internally smooth motion can output both frames that will be presented multiple times and frames that won't be. I just never think about it.

Hmm, I do notice a much bigger hit from ED v.s. ordered dithering when smooth motion is enabled but I have not quantified it. It could be a simple 2x.
