how do i know if the rate is switched to 24p when i am watching a movie?
can we check in anyway?
on my sony tv i have set it to auto picture - other options i have is auto 24p or off
While a video is playing, you can go to Settings, Select Resolution, and it will show which Resolution and Frame Rate are currently running. There's also a function called Debug Info that shows the current bitrate and frame rate and such. That should show what Kodi is outputting. I'm not sure what the keystroke to show it is, as I have it mapped to my Harmony Remote. To verify the Shield is outputting that, it depends on our TV or AV Receiver, whether it will show you that information.
'O' and CTRL+SHIFT+'O' are the two useful keystrokes for playback information. (This is letter O, not numeral 0)
When you press 'O' you get information about the content of the file you are playing - what it's resolution, frame rate is, and how it is being replayed (whether software decoding or hardware acceleration is being used).
When you press CTRL+SHIFT+'O' you get information about the bitrates of the audio and video, and how many frames have been dropped etc.
Some AVRs are good at displaying their input format and frame rate on their front panel or on-screen displays, and some have network connected apps that let you see that information on a smart phone or tablet. My older Onkyo and my current Denon both do this one way or the other.
My Sony TV tells me a lot less - but will usually flag when it's in 24p mode by adding that to the vertical resolution. In 1080/50p and 1080/60p modes it just reports '1080p' but in 1080/24p mode it reports '1080/24p'. An ancient Samsung TV displays far more information on it's OSD.
