You're talking about two separate calculations. Using -od calculates some sort of RMSD. If you do not use -od, then the standard output (-o) is RMSF, using the fitting described (unless you use -nofit).

Thanks!

I believe the reference structure is taken from whatever structure file
is given
to the -s flag, so in principle you could provide any frame from the
trajectory,
as well as the initial one, or some average structure (from, i.e.
g_cluster or
something similar).
