I just came across this post on another forum. Maybe it does automatically switch?

That's another advantage of WD TV Live over Roku--it can output Netflix, VUDU, etc as 24p.

However it doesn't automatically switch to 24P output for 24P sources.
AFAIK it does just that. It's not like the Panasonic BDPs, where there's a setting for turning 24p on and off that you have to access and turn on when you're running a streaming video app. If you set the HDMI resolution system setting to "Auto" it gives you a setting "Match Video Framerate" which can be set On or Off. Alternatively you can make it output everything as 1080p24. Since this 7 y/o panel cannot accept 24p input my AVR takes over and converts to 60 Hz.
