But even so - is it worth worrying about that extra 0.04 seconds difference between frame rates. I cant say I would notice. Dont sweat the small stuff dude, life is too short!
Cinema films are originally 24fps. Many have to be sped up to 25fps for PAL 50Hz which affects the pitch of the sound. I would love to hear DVD films in the original cinema pitch without the use of complicated utilities.

This forum should be moved to Media Portal Talk and the topic should be renamed as something else because I can't do this as a user.

I am indeed knowledgeable about audio and video. I am supposed to be doing my other priorities but I am very easily distracted. I am a person who is very easily distracted by more interesting things.

Agree! But gee, it's interesting...

My PC is also a general workstation, not just a Media Center.
And herein lies a problem for developers of this kind of software. The guys who build DVD recorders etc aren't having to deal with people using their appliances for running their small business, planning their 3 storey house extension, or compiling the monthly neighbourhood newsletter (although there is probably already a hack to enable these functions somewhere...:wink: )
