I haven't yet tested fritsch's build, but I have discovered where this issue is occuring on OE6 - It seems to be a mix of detinerlacing method and video scaling method, it also depends on HD and SD channels (as it's a different outcome between the two). The moment I enable lanczos3 optimized or infact anything other than bilinear, the GUI will drop to 25fps.

Yeah - as said. OE 6.0 is obsolete and nobody really knows what is in there ... Test the version we asked you to test or please continue in the OpenELEC forum. Also pulseaudio is of no interest in that regard at all.
First decide what functions / features you expect from a system. Then decide for the hardware. Don't waste your money on crap.

On start/stop switches the GUI back to the default (50/60Hz) so it's not laggy.

To summarize on this issue:
- Hardware: Intel G3258, 4gb ram, SSD
- Skin - Confluence
- Settings used: Resolution 1920x1080p, Refresh rate - 50.00, VSync - Let driver choose, HQ scalers above 20%, all VAAPI stuff enabled, VDPAU - off, Deinterlacing - auto, Deinterlace method - VAAPI motion compensated, Video scaling method - Lanczos3 optimised, Adjust refresh rate - on start/stop. I've tried different variations of all the above settings, the issue takes place when you enable anything other than bilinear scaling method.
- All system settings, tv guide, video library etc are pinned at 25fps when SD live tv is playing.
- When SD TV is playing the main menu is a mix of 50 and 25 fps, depending on whether you have recently added movie/tv show widgets displayed (as you do on confluence), if you do the GUI drops to 25 fps when you hover scroll through them. Tbh, the main menu has a mind of it's own it changes between what I just mentioned with the widgets or it will be constant 25 fps.
- Music visualizations: The GUI again drops to 25 fps when ProjectM is displayed at maximum settings.
This issue has only become apparent since the Openelec versions from Kodi 15 beta's through to Kodi 16 beta's - Kodi 14 on the Openelec platform was completely smooth at 50fps throughout the GUI.
