Some updates.

It seems now that my audio passthrough is working, not sure what causes this but for some reason now both KODI and SPMC will give passthrough to my reciever. I cant think of any settings i have changed to get it to work. I still have the recommended settings from SPMC. Anyhow one problem less.


Regarding refresh rate that is still an issue, I guess as you said its a bug in Nvidia.

- I downloaded the app TVHz from google play store and it only showed 60hz. I then restarted reciever, stil only showing 60hz. I then restarted Nvidia then it shows many different, 24, 30, 60 etc. I went into both KODI and SPMC and now i can change the refresh rate in system settings for display. But if i change it to 23.976, and play a movie with 23.976 my TV still says 1080 60P.

And if i go into Nvidia OS and change HZ, it automatically change it back to the recommended 59.***

Thank you djstx2003 for good explanation!

I guess we need to push Nvidia to fix this bug. Atleast I can live with it for a while and just enable/disable passthrough. But then about the refresh rate, i tried to do this: "refresh Rate to always and to put 3 seconds delay" but didnt help.

try 3.5 seconds in the settings or 4. also try to check with TV Hz program from playstore to see if you have all refresh rate options. if you don't see them try to unplug the power cable and after 5-10 seconds plug it again and see if you see all available refresh rates in TV Hz program. also see in your Avr in setup-information-video if refresh rate changes depending in the source files your are playing, like 23.976 fps, 25000 fps etc....
good luck!!!

I have to start my nvidia shield slightly behind my avr to get framerateswitching to work. Solved this with a master-/slave-extension-lead. My avr is the master.

If I don't use this "ms ext lead" I always get a poor resolution of 640x480@60Hz after a cold boot and it's not possible to change the resolution or the frame rates. If I reboot the system after the cold boot again everything works as expected.

Now with this ext lead everything is flawless. Not the perfect out-of-the-box-solution, but it works.

By the way, I didn't had this issue with marshmallow.
