18-git versions Sync playback to display seems to be broken, since maybe couple weeks. Tried with different kernel, mesa and ffmpeg versions as i updated those since problem occured, but didn't find any of those helping. Video is choppy, skipping frames often, almost like watching 23.976fps video at 25Hz (but skipping is not as regular).
Video is smooth without Sync playback to display option though.

I see you playing one movie with 23.976 fps and as you have adjust refreshrate enabled kodi switches.
DEBUG: CVideoReferenceClock: Detected refreshrate: 23.976 hertz
the 30 is before the switch
First decide what functions / features you expect from a system. Then decide for the hardware. Don't waste your money on crap.

Stopped reading too early.. Nothing obvious in the log?
I have used this setting since Panasonic plasma and XBMC, suppose i don't need it anymore because LG OLED can do most refresh rates and can't see any skipping?

Don't know if it's the same issue but since I switched to v18 and using switch refresh rate option I have random choppy playback. Have to stop/restart video several time to get correct playback. As a workaround I found that enabling sync playback to display fix the issue.

yes proper refresh rate enabled in white list. but time to time video was playing like at 10fps. I have to stop/restart it several time until it play smooth. But since I have also enabled the sync playback to display this issue is gone.
