ReClock detects monitor refresh rate incorrectly

ReClock seems to detect my monitor's refresh rate incorrectly and then sticks with the incorrect value. For example, if I switch to 50Hz it will display "Refresh rate: 50.000 Hz" (or similar) and "Display: 1920x1080@48 (1/1)" underneath. The 48 figure seems to be the one it relies on as it says in the "Media adaption" box that the "media speed changed to 24.000 fps", which results in a noticeable pitch increase compared to viewing the media without ReClock.

It similarly picks up 24.000 Hz as 23 Hz exactly. I can see why ReClock may ignore the value reported by Windows as my monitor has a "23 Hz" setting which is really 23.976 Hz (and is so closer to 24 Hz) and ReClock similarly seems to treat this as 23 Hz.

I have tried with and without the "Use GDI or PowerStrip for faster refresh rate detection" enabled and have tried "Clean-up manual frame rates database" to no avail - 50Hz is still treated as 48Hz and 24Hz as 23Hz.

One thing I have noticed is that if I switch refresh rates when ReClock is running the detected refresh rate starts at a lower value (which more closely matches the rounded value it uses) before settling at the "actual" refresh rate after a second or so.

I'm not sure if there's any more information I can provide or if there's somewhere I should be looking, so I'd much appreciate any help anyone could give me. Thanks!

Edit: I've think I've found the correct "Clean up" button (it's the one on "Advanced settings" - "Clean-up video clock timings database"). Having clicked this ReClock seems to now be recalculating timings every time I switch to a previously unused refresh rate and for the time being timings seem to be correct.
