Among my explorations on how to push the limits of what is possible, I came onto a tool called SVP (Smooth Video Project) that allows playing videos in 60fps. When attuning to the energy of a video, this is very useful because when you look at a video in 24fps, the brain clearly knows it is a video and it gets processed by the frontal lobes of the brain. When the video is 60fps, the brain believes it to be reality and it gets processed by the cortex in the back of the brain. This allows you to connect more deeply with the video as if it was in real life.
If you want to convert and re-encode your videos in 60fps, instead of doing it in real-time, it is also possible. SubJunk wrote the instructions here, but it has a prohibitive complexity for experts only.
In the Natural Grounding Player v1.1, there is a Media Encoder that allows you to convert your videos to 60fps in just a few clicks! Not only that, but you can also drastically increase the quality of your video. Here’s a sample video before and after.
This video will show you the exact steps in just 4 minutes. Enjoy!

I know this video converter can help you convert video to 60 fps, you can customize the fps in the setting panel.

Thanks, I will try this out.
A side comment to this statement:
– "When the video is 60fps, the brain believes it to be reality and it gets processed by the cortex in the back of the brain. This allows you to connect more deeply with the video as if it was in real life."
It has the opposite effect on me. It does indeed look real, instead of like a video, but that ruins the illusion, that the set/surroundings is real. It instead just looks like the actors are on a set (which they are, but it's not supposed to be obvious).
I first noticed this when watching the high framerate version of The Hobbit in the movie theater. It didn't feel like watching a movie, but instead like watching a theater play. It didn't feel like they were actually in the surroundings, that it was supposed to look like, but instead felt like I was looking at the actors standing on a stage, with a set and props around them.

This isn't just about simply converting to 60fps.

So I’ve been fiddling with NGP trying to use it to convert videos to 60 fps. The problem I’ve been having is I can’t figure out setting to JUST convert the selected video to 60fps, without really changing the video besides that. I feed in a 2.5gb file and hours later I get a 60fps 600mb video file… No matter which settings I fiddle with the output is always similar to this. How do can I losslessly covert the video to 60fps?

You mean you want to encode into lossless AVI format? That’s not currently supported. It only encodes videos to MP4 format. I may consider adding this into the future.
You can do it manually the hard way. Here are instructions with AviSynth

And another method with VapourSynth. Not sure which method is easier but it’s laborious either way.

The videos I’m encoding are already MP4s. I’m basically ‘re-encoding’ them. If the video is passing through filters there has to be a way to set those filters to their lowest setting (apart from picture quality). The problem is I don’t know what they all do, and I haven’t found any explanations of the various filters. I don’t know if for any one filter whether the lowest setting is best or the highest setting, or maybe if half-way is the ‘neutral’ setting.
Every time I’ve tried the Megui + Avisynth method it just errors out. It may have something to do with Win10 64bit

As for filters, you can look into details what it’s doing by looking at the AviSynth script and searching google for the AviSynth documentation of the various filters. That will tell you exactly what you need. But if you don’t want to do any resize or modification other than convert to 60fps, just set the output height the same as the input height and there shouldn’t be any resizing. Disable denoising. Disable cropping. Then what’s left of the script is very simple. Where most of the complicated work is in upscaling and you don’t need that. In terms of the output file size, look at the MP4 encoding quality in the Encoding tab. 25 is low quality, 16 gives the best quality and largest file size. Also keep in mind that if you’re encoding to x265, it compresses the video about twice better than x264 so you can expect to get a considerably smaller file for the same quality.
