I certainly don't think I have any "crappy" hardware but I get your point.
You are incorrect though the projector can display 59.94 just fine. I am quite sure it can't display 1920x1200 though which is where the problem is. I still don't understand why Kodi is picking that as the resolution to try instead of the actual 1920x1080 59.94 that works fine.
I think that is:
1920x1200 (0xdf) 154.000MHz +HSync -VSync
h: width 1920 start 1968 end 2000 total 2080 skew 0 clock 74.04KHz
v: height 1200 start 1203 end 1209 total 1235 clock 59.95Hz
vs
1920x1080 (0xe1) 148.352MHz +HSync +VSync
h: width 1920 start 2008 end 2052 total 2200 skew 0 clock 67.43KHz
v: height 1080 start 1084 end 1089 total 1125 clock 59.94Hz
I can change he KODI GUI just fine to 59.94 with no issues.

Resolution only takes the width (!) into account, so for your 1920x1080 and your 1920x1200 the one that is evaluated last wins ...
First decide what functions / features you expect from a system. Then decide for the hardware. Don't waste your money on crap.

gotcha - well thanks for the help/info. It's only a few videos so I will just handle those differently Hope the debug for the audio issue helps.

Can't you get rid of the of that 4:3 resolution? I did not see the audio issue cause of the noise ... I will upload a build that will consider the aspect ratio and keep the ratio the TV originally had.
You find it (after it's fully up 45 minutes) at the usual location, it has jjslegacy in its name.

Build is up ... this can btw. be run by everyone - it does not hurt ...
For jjslegacy's Audio: Disable passthrough - it is inferior and proper sync is not possible.

Thanks for the quick turnaround. I got a quick test in before the family came home.
For the Frozen planet video that went straight to a blank screen it works perfectly!
The Life video still locks up at the kodi screen and audio starts to play so there must be somthing more there. I will generate a new debug file as soon a I get back down there later.
I have been disabling passthrough but have been testing back and forth to see if newer builds have it working.
What I haven't been able to figure out is - am I missing anything by not using it? Any limitations or situations that aren't handled properly?
Thanks again!

On my chromebox, when I update from 6.0.98 to the latest test build, I lose a lot of my database. Even tried updating to the earliest available test build after restoring backup and still I lose a lot of my database.

We currently don't have a nicely working sync method for Passthrough - it works as it works - you are welcome to implement the IEC burst pause packages. I cannot suggest anyone using passthrough currently and in general at all.
