1. A method for displaying an image on a liquid crystal display including a light valve comprising:
- (a) receiving an image signal;
(b) providing light to said light value for a first region of said image based upon a determination that said first region is likely to include motion;
(c) providing light to said light value for a second region of said image based upon a determination that said second region is not likely to include motion.

5. A method for displaying an image on a display including a light valve comprising:
-
(a) receiving an image signal;
(b) providing light to a first pixel of said light valve having an illumination characteristic within a frame that is different from another pixel of said display during a frame. - View Dependent Claims (6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11)

12. A method for displaying an image on a liquid crystal display including a light valve comprising:
-
(a) receiving an image signal;
(b) illuminating a backlight of said liquid crystal display including a set of spatially displaced independently controllable light emitting elements;
(c) selectively adjusting said light value to modify the luminance output of said display;
(d) wherein said illumination of said light emitting elements of said backlight is modulated at a rate greater than a frame rate of said display and said image signal is modified to provide a motion compensated image that is displayed with said image signal. - View Dependent Claims (13, 14)

15. A method for displaying an image on a liquid crystal display comprising:
-
(a) illuminating a first plurality of pixels of a first region of said display at a non-zero illumination level during a first time period of said frame;
(b) illuminating a second plurality of pixels of a second region of said display at a non-zero illumination level during two different time periods of said frame with a lesser illumination level therebetween;
(c) wherein the total said illumination provided to said first plurality of pixels during said frame and the total said illumination provided to said first plurality of pixels is within 50% of each other. - View Dependent Claims (16, 17, 18)

19. A method for displaying an image on a liquid crystal display comprising:
-
(a) illuminating a first plurality of pixels of said display over a plurality of frames at a first average rate;
(b) illuminating said first plurality of pixels of said display over another plurality of frames at a second average rate;
(c) illuminating said first plurality of pixels of said display for at least one frame between said plurality of frames and said another plurality of frames at a third average rate, when at least one frame of said first plurality of frames and said another plurality of frames is included, that is between said first and second average rates. - View Dependent Claims (20, 21, 22)

23. A method for displaying an image on a display including a light valve comprising:
-
(a) receiving an image signal;
(b) providing light to a first pixel of said light valve having an illumination characteristic within a frame that is modified by an overdrive based upon sufficient motion associated with said first pixel;
(c) providing light to another pixel of said light valve having an illumination characteristic within said frame that is not modified by said overdrive based upon insufficient motion associated with said another pixel.

24. A method for displaying an image on a display including a light valve comprising:
-
(a) receiving an image signal;
(b) determining a first group of pixels based upon a determination that said first group of pixels has sufficient motion (c) providing light to a second group of pixels that includes said first group of pixels wherein part of said second group of pixels has insufficient motion;
(d) illuminating said second group of pixels of said light valve having an illumination characteristic within a frame that is different from another pixel of said display during a frame.
