Just disable Adjust Refreshrate to match video and use instead Sync Playback to Display. Make a blind test with your family - they won't realize. No need to invest in hw that cannot even stutterfree play 24p ...

Does Sync Playback to Display not cause issues with passthrough audio?

I did find that keeping the delay refresh rate change to 0 helped.

It disables passthrough. Not sure why everyone wants it anyways ... kodi can decode every format lossless (besides atmos bits).

True but I prefer my receiver to handle the audio.

Why? There is zero benefit but several disadvantages of passthrough audio.

Mod EDIT just to fix the pic above cause of the Humor in this thread

I appreciate all the discussion around alternatives, but can we keep a clear distinction between broken functionality, and pros and cons of alternate audio and video configurations?

For me, I also run Roku boxes for Netflix, Amazon, and Plex, but I do not get native video and I do not get native audio, that is why I use (used) my NUC boxes to watch immersive movies (from my own collection of raw BD rips), not Plex on Roku. And my AVR is tuned for room acoustics, and in my opinion does a better job of mapping input channels to actual speaker setup than Kodi does, psychological maybe, but my preference. If my only working LE options with my NUC are going to get the same behavior as Plex on Roku, then why would I bother with Kodi and LE at all?

So then back to topic. No apollo lake / kabylake has the issue you posted in this thread.

You know the place by now where to file those bugs and that kodi is in no way related to this issue. Link the other guy your bugreport, so that he can subscribe.
