I'm still not 100% sure I understand it but its something like this. Most newer tv's run a 60hz. and refresh at 60 frames per second. Most movies are filmed at 24frames per second. It doesn't divide evenly but tricks are done to make it look smooth. Repeating a frame here and there. Some players can output 24P and tvs can display 24P to make it look closer to the video. In Europe content might be in 50hz because that was the standard there, which is suppose to look like shit at 60hz. Android is usually stuck at 60hz although you can change the firetv to output different rates just not from xbmc. you see it stutter or something when it duplicates frames. So mainly people want a device that can output 50hz, 60hz, or what ever the particular video is when the video is played. I have never noticed it though. Maybe someone else here wants to explain it better and more accurately.
