Yes it does, if your GPU does. That's usually the issue though - most are very poor at clocking right to 23.976hz.
Just enable "Adjust refresh rate to match video" in Settings>Video>Playback

If I have been able to help feel free to add to my reputation +/- below - thanks!

Hmm I'll check into that. I wonder if my GTX 430 can handle it.
EDIT: I don't know if my TV itself can be forced to 24p, just sources. Can XBMC be forced to 24p?

XBMC can, but you'll get a black screen or worse if your TV can't!

^ Thanks fabio. I'll check out adding those and going through and checking the overscan for each. Right now i'm on 60hz 1080p which is native to my tv. TV is samsung set to screen fit. While entering xbmc everything looks proper. No borders. Its only when playing HD 720 or 1080p video the borders appear. The GUI and everything else fits perfectly.

had the same problem, go to catalyst control center and then change the refresh rate from 60hz to 24hz and now your screen will not be full screen so just go to overscan settings and put it back to 0 and save, do this for every refresh rate that you want to use and it will be fine afterwards

Checked all of the refresh settings. All are 0%, no black border exists within windows or on the XBMC menus. Only during HD playback.

It sounds as though when DXVA is enabled we use DXVA scalers, which override the zoom/output size settings in XBMC.
I believe a11569 has a pull request lined up to use DXVA + XBMC's HQ scalers, so those of you with speedy graphics will be able to use the HQ shaders in XBMC at that point, and thus won't have this issue.

I get the border but only on some video, mainly PAL or UK freeview. If I switch to UI while video is playing it goes to fullscreen.
I also get the border when playing games in 720p.
EDIT:
Sorted for videos by changing to resolution and setting overscan for each one. Still no luck with Far Cry 3 though.

It sounds like you just need to change the scaling options under my digital flat-panels. The problem is you need to do it again for each resolution and refresh rate that you're going to use.

I couldn't work it out for Far Cry 3 because it doesn't let you set the fps so I used Task Manager to open the desktop while the game was running and set the scaling there and it worked fine. Thanks
