unfortunately thats not a real fix, as globally delaying things may help and may not help. the main issue as I can tell is xbmc is just not syncing properly. i've had films that were synced properly go out of sync right during the middle of the film while they had been in sync for 45 minutes already, a quick check of the on screen stats showed that the missed counter was now steadily increasing, pushing play/pause a few times got the missed counter to stop increasing and sync was back.
compounded by the fact that i was told if you watch at double the frame rate, like 50hz on 25hz material, it will work fine, which it does. but most people can't watch at 48hz for 24p or 96hz or whatever.
and especially if you have an issue like i have with nvidia where it plays okay typically with one container type and needs delays with other container types, setting delays doesn't work very well. if it works for you, thats great, likely for certain people, probably AMD cards, this would be a good fix.
