The minix neo x8-h can do on the fly refresh rate switching with the minix version of xbmc.

yes someone made an addon for frequency switching a while back and it has been ported to others S802 devices (someone just had to remove the minix check). I own a tronsmart vega and it does work
If anyone is interested you can fins the addon here:

I use an old sony TV which is capable of 24p, whatever that means. If there is any small stutter with 23,978p, i think i would not see it; quite contrairy to the 24p to 50/60Hz conversion on these android devices.My Sony TV is about 7 years old and reports 1080/24p on screen when switching refresh rates.
Most TV's display similar when switching modes and the picture Sync is perfect with 23.976fps material.

do you know if this is possible with every android box with 4.4? In my opinion, it should be, since with 4.4 it should solely be a minor software issue
Quote:Resolution switching through adaptive playbackhttps://developer.android.com/about/versions/kitkat.html
Android 4.4 brings formal support for adaptive playback into the Android media framework. Adaptive playback is an optional feature of video decoders for MPEG-DASH and other formats that enables seamless change in resolution during playback. The client can start to feed the decoder input video frames of a new resolution and the resolution of the output buffers change automatically, and without a significant gap.
Resolution switching in Android 4.4 lets media apps offer a significantly better streaming video experience. Apps can check for adaptive playback support at runtime using existing APIs and implement resolution-switching using new APIs introduced in Android 4.4.
