Hi, I just tested this plugin tonight and I'm really impressed, it worked better than I expected in terms of user experience. The difference in video quality when the refresh rate is correct is something I had seriously underated as a performance gain.

Sadly I found some issues:

- A few videos that opened as 29.97 in the configuration tool (correctly) showed as 25 fps in the logfile when played in Mediaportal (incorrectly). Using the 'VMR9' option alone fixed this. Examples are a 1080p mpeg2 TS file.

- The PAL TV (coming from TV server on another machine) reported as 29.97 in the logfile when opened in Mediaportal.

- If I set the VMR9 detection on, the TV correctly detects as 50fps, but my settings are only 24, 25 and 30. It chooses 30, but I'd rather it chose 25. Some 23.97 sources are detected as 25fps in this mode, possibly due to instability in VMR9 rate.

Thanks for your work on this.
