Can someone please explain how PlayStation 3 or other blu-ray devices output "24 Hz" and bitstream audio without issue?
I'm very keen to get into Smoothvideo, but I just can't give up bitstream. I do understand why audio resampling is necessary, I'm just confused how other players do it. Is it possible that "24 hz" TVs actually support both 24/1001hz and 24hz?

So which of the audio hardware settings disables this? Or is considered the default (non-smoothbranch) settings?
Thsi will defiantely make all the settings easier to test for those that dont compile.

Thanks again for this wonderful update to XBMC, I'm really glad to hear it's been merged with the main branch.
The only problem remaining now is that you have to manually change your refresh rate to match the content you're going to watch in order for the playback to be smooth. If refresh rate isn't set to a multiple of the fps then the smoothvideo functionality still produces jerkiness. Also it seems I have to run XBMC in Window mode for best results (still a bit jerky if I use fullscreen and change refresh rate using XBMC's settings menus).
Is it possible to add an option to automatically change the screens refresh rate when launching a movie?
Atm there isn't even a simple way to change refresh rate from withing XBMC, I have to restart XBMC for the new refresh rate to take effect (when running in fullscren -fs). And in window mode I have to change refresh rate in windows.
Also there's no easy way to check what the correct refresh rate for a movie actually is from inside XBMC. So I usually end up Closing XBMC, starting the movie in MPC which calls the reclock filter which in turn calls a script that launches the catalyst profile which has the correct refresh rate. Then I close MPC and start XBMC again and watch the movie/docu. So as you can see an automatic refresh detection and automatic change inside XBMC would be much better.
I'm thinking you probably already got the refresh rate detection under control (since this feature is basically founded on it), so this value could be used to change the refresh rate somehow, right?

What do you think "adjust refresh rate" is there for, under video/player. :rolleyes2:

Settings/Videos/Player/Adjust refresh rate is what you are looking for. And it works already.
