Reclock's DirectShow Frame-rate detection is extremely fragile (it uses a special source filter to automatically build a temporary Directshow graph at the beginning of playback). Certain combinations of splitters, decoders, and transform filters will cause it to stop working. When Reclock's DirectShow Frame-rate detection breaks, it falls back to Built-in Estimator which takes a few seconds of playback to determine the frame-rate. It would be nice if James @ Slysoft would fix this, but it seems he's finished doing improvements to Reclock.

If you set a default frame-rate like '23.976' instead of 'unknown' in Reclock, you should be able to prevent an initialization pop/gap when the estimator and your default frame-rate match. Depending on your audio hardware, if you set Reclock's 'Sound pre-buffer' low enough, you may also be able to reduce or eliminate the initialization pop/gap effect.
