You should take a break and know who your friends are...

Similarly, does anyone know if it works at 24/25/50 Hz frame rates.

Having seen the images previously posted with the hardware acceleration featured shown in XBMC settings, and out of sheer curiosity I downloaded a couple of the supposed modded ROM's, one of which was called xbmc-rk3288-265.
Not only was there no hardware acceleration setting in either of them, there was nothing that listed DTS or Dolby support that I had seen in the Kodi Helix Alpha nightly builds.

Keep reading. As I said in the freaktab forums and it ultimately came true in less than a day with Nagrace, I will say again about the non-compliant XBMC - too many users have not yet seen it, and among those that have, you included (by evidence of your post above) have no idea what it is that makes the modded XBMC different, and non-compliant.
All of that will eventually be understood by everyone in due time as others with distinct manners, expressions and ways of explaining things jump into the fray. Of course there's always the question of legitimacy and perceived legitimacy, where one person says one thing, another says the exact same thing, but only the one that follows is credited with veracity due to popularity, standing or other factors not related to fact.
I simply had the unfortunate circumstance of being one of the early adopters involved in testing the RK3288 devices and sharing my findings to a mixed crowd; among which some are not technically inclined and unable to understand what it is about the build that makes it differential.
Differential doesn't mean better or worse. A feature is a feature, just that.
As far as freaktab, you won't see me there anymore. This is the third such circumstance where I've been cursed out and maligned over a discovery concerning android development in that community. I'm done with it. I should have stayed away the first time it happened.

I would not worry too much about feeling maligned, as sometimes things can get a little heated.
Bob has essentially covered the discussion earlier in what I see as a calming manner and I do think that many will be grateful that you have not only identified these things but have made some effort to find out more.
I'd be sad not to see you post there any more.

For now (imho) YES

do you mean autoframerate ?
