How does VLC handle monitor refresh rate / video frame rate synchronization?

Postby mark7 » 09 Jun 2018 03:52

So how does VLC handle differences in terms of monitor refresh rate vs video frame rate. I see that there are no dropped frames when watching, for example, 59.94 fps video on a 60 Hz monitor. So, generally, how does VLC achieve that?

It hopes the OS is correctly adjusting.
