Changelog:
- Fix Audio / Video Sync when "Sync Playback to Display" is disabled, e.g. when users use passthrough.
- Fixup Adjust Refreshrate to match video. We now also can change resolutions, use case: Gui @ 1080p60 -> switch to 4k@24 when a matching movie, e.g. refreshrate is 24 is to be played. This is especially a use case for Intel Boxes that can only output 4k@30 max and therefore LiveTV content (1080i50) should be played at 1080p50. Note: if you have such a setup, we recommend to run the GUI in 1080 mode as kodi's GUI scaler is just low quality. It will automatically switch up when content is played which fps <= max refreshrate at 4k.

Fernet just pushed 5 minutes ago, I did not get the change by spiff to load ffmpeg tags, so for dsf and mka tags you need to wait until tomorrow.

Okay... Testing this latest one on my C1037UN-EU box: videos still play fine, although with Lanczos-3 I get upto 2-3 skips per second on a 4K h.264 29.97fps 100+ Mb/s video. Hadn't noticed the skips before, but I take it the Ivy Bridge gpu is biting off more than it can chew here. With bilinear (or Auto) selected, there are no skips in the same video.

Audio has changed a bit now. With the previous builds, audio always started blank for a full second after the video when resumed after a pause. Now the audio starts immediately as well, but .. there is still a mini-hiccup, 1 second after resuming the video. Confused
For the record, here is the debug log. http://sprunge.us/Yfib

Will do some more testing later on to see if the audio hiccup also occurs with less complicated videos.

EDIT: I have been tricked for some reason. Now, even with Lanczos-3 and OSD display on, I now have no skips on that 4K h264 video. Just 1 or 2 skips during pausing and resume. Laugh
