The core issue here is unfortunately that XBMC never seems to get a good hang of 24p audio sync.
I'm no expert just to state that first of all, but it also seem strange to me that almost any other videoplayer I try plays back 24p material with excellent sync.

The upside here is that it seems that the devs are working on the problem, so we'll just have to cross fingers and hope that this will be a forgotten chapter some time in the close future

really? its been over a year and a half already so I don't think it will ever be fixed. I've seen a lot of reasons for why it doesn't work even though it works on other platforms, but no fixes yet.

So what, if you want bitstreaming and likely crappy video, you can turn the option off. People have blown bitstreaming way out of proportion

Touchy! Touchy! Who or what rattled your cage?

and what does bitstreaming have to do with 'crappy video'?

All I was pointing out was that this was not a solution for those who want to bitstream.

what does bitstreaming have to do with this issue? without a sync method, video will be crappy if the audio clock and video clock are not the same which is the case in 99% of situations. Further, 99% of people will not know the difference between bitstreaming and not bitstreaming and from what i've heard, if its decoded properly, no one will tell the difference. Finally, development seems to be full speed for bitstreaming while the thing that 99.9% of people are using xbmc for doesn't work which is video sync with bluray videos.
