what that looks like, you might be watching it on YouTube at 24 frames a second

這看起來像什麼，你可能會在YouTube上以每秒24幀的速度觀看它。

so the entire point of it would be completely lost.

所以它的全部意義將完全喪失。

And that doesn't account for the fact that when I do publish this video

而且這還沒有說明，當我真的發佈這個視頻時

at 24 frames a second, you might be watching it on a "Dynamic Mode" on your TV

以每秒24幀的速度，你可能在電視上用 "動態模式 "觀看。

at 60 frames a second — artificially.
