[1]Normally you see this effect with avi files with a broken index. The whole file gets parsed creating a temporary index.
A mkv with the very same streams (converted from AVI with Mkvtoolnix) loads instantly on both.
But I'm not seeing this, and the file opens quickly.
I notice your log has "CFileCache:rocess - Hit eof" - have you forced file cache to be enabled for local files? Can you try disabling that?

Why the as.xml override? The Pi should handle 24 and 23.976 rates correctly without an override.
I do see that omxplayer is detecting double the framerate - I'll look into that.
I suspect that setting "Adjust display refresh rate to match video" to "On start/stop" rather than "Always" will avoid this issue (as will disabling omxplayer acceleration).
