You must have just not noticed it, or the film you were watching didn't have a lot of panning shots or fast action.

Watching a Blu-ray film at 60Hz causes juddering, because the standard rate for film is 24fps. This happens whatever Blu-ray player you use: If you watch a BD film at 60Hz it will have judder, that's why 24Hz / 24fps mode exists.

Watching a Blu-ray at 24Hz should not cause juddering, as it's playing at the correct rate for film...but the Xbox One's Blu-ray player app had serious issues with 24Hz mode, leading to it still suffer juddering anyway (along with audio sync problems).

It has been improved since launch, via app updates and console updates, but is still not as good as the Blu-ray playback on a PS3.

DVDs suffer from judder due to a similar issue: PAL DVDs are meant to be played at 50Hz, yet the Xbox One forces them to 60Hz, causing judder...
