Presented herein are system(s), method(s), and apparatus for displaying pictures on a display. In one embodiment, there is presented a method for outputting pictures. The method comprises receiving the plurality of fields for display in a particular order, where the plurality of fields are associated with the stream; detecting that a first field and a field adjacent to the first field have the same polarities; selecting between leading or lagging the fields after the first field; detecting that a second field and a field adjacent to the second field have the same polarities; selecting between leading and lagging the fields after the second field, based at least in part on the selection after the first field; detecting that a third field and a field adjacent to the third field have the same polarities; and selecting between leading and lagging the fields based at least in part on the selection after the second field.
