Drawing overlays has no reason to affect refresh rate, SwapBuffers() only changes (conceptually) the pointer that video output generator uses at its own pace (be it 24, 50, 60Hz).
I know. That was my point when I said they were independent of each other... 😉

Shan't doubt the monitor though. Frequency does not change if playing one of the "Example Short 23.976 fps" clips on Netflix either?
Nope, never changes.

It seams likely Roku player always outputs at 60Hz. RokuCo probably forgot the spec info when re-designing the http://www.roku.com/products/compare page with big checkboxes + small fonts, though conspiracy theorists can go with "trying to hide lack of native support for 1080p24 BD video and 50fps UK/EU content". Now I see AppleTV supports both 50Hz and 60Hz - and Chromecast dongle seems to be 60Hz only - but can't find streamers doing native 24fps.
Per Joel in the other thread, he said he believes it outputs at 50Hz in the UK. Not sure if that was definitive or not.
If I'm not mistaken, I believe the MHL version of the streaming stick supports 1080p24 (sources: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Roku_Streaming_Player and http://www.missingremote.com/news/2012- ... d-app-upda).
