Yes but then you lose smooth 23.976, 29.97 and 59.94 fps video playback because you have just disabled AMLogic Frame Rate Automation aka HDMI Self Adaptation.
The AML Kernel need a specific patch to stop the black screen problem. Xiaomi Kernel developers simply do not have the AML Linux Kernel skills or motivation to look at such issues in detail or simply don't care. This is the sort of stuff the AML LE developers (& MINIX and WeTek) sorted out quite a while ago.
On 23.976fps video testing you will then see a video frame "hiccup" approx. every 42 seconds because 23.976fps video is being output incorrectly at 24fps.
As I always say those that are demanding Kodi types should be using a highly optimised AML S9xx LibreELEC or OSMC Kodi Krypton Box in addition to already bought Android TV boxes. Trying to do everything on the one device is where the wheels always fall off.
There are so many S9xx options available these days for LE you do not even need to spend a fortune. Bluetooth and a $10 aftermarket Xiaomi Mi Box remote and you are good to go.
