I would suggest MythTV should put things back "the way it found it" after
playing a video.  There may be other programs the user wishes to run on the
FE machine that doesn't like the new refresh rate, e.g. playing games via
MythGame, watching streams with MythNetVision, alt-tabbing to another
program, or launching a different player from MythVideo for a different
filetype.

I haven't actually tried running with 24Hz, so maybe it already does some of
this, and I don't know what I'm talking about.  Wouldn't be the first time.
