Yesterday during testing the new RPi 3 B+ I noticed something strange. It's probably not related to new Pi but rather newer builds.
My Kodi desktop is set for 23.97 to eliminate double screen issues when coming out of 3D MVC playback back to Kodi on 4K 3D TV.
Here is the issue I noticed yesterday. If I play 3D MVC movie 23.97fps at correct 23.97Hz display rate frame packing - pause - hit "Escape". Kodi overlay pups on the top of the movie. I go to settings > info to check CPU temperature. Esc and Backspace I'm back in paused full screen movie. Play again and I get frame skips every 20s or so like the screen is sync on 24Hz instead of 23.976. Player Process Info shows correct 23.976Hz while it keeps skipping frames. The only way to reset it is to X out of the movie and restart from last point.
While this is not a major issue it had to creep up in the recent builds. I don't remember having issues with frame rates or skipping frame on 3D MVC for a long time and I do go into setting on occasion.
