Personally I use these commands:

bcdedit /set disabledynamictick true
bcdedit /set useplatformclock false
bcdedit /set useplatformtick false

These provide my system with the best latency & stability. But the nVidia Latency issues with the pascal cards cannot be fixed until nVidia fixes it with a driver update (they improved it compared to how bad it was when the cards first got released, but it's still noticeable). I removed my GTX 1070, and inserted my old HD7970 (280x Equivalent), and the graphic driver latency completely disappeared, re-inserted the GTX 1070, and the latency issues returned.

Do you have an nVidia Pascal card? The DPC Latency issues everyone knows about them with Pascal, they've improved over the last few driver updates, but they're still there. I have a GTX 1070, but I've seen people with the GTX 1080 & 1060 report DPC Latency issues. I've already disabled all of the above, and while it certainly helps, the DPC Latency issues still remain.

However, having said that, these issues have never impacted SVP for me. I use MPC x64 + Madvr + SVP combination.

I recommend you watch this review. This is very important and all the points being raised are significant. It's a myth that Ryzen is and will be bad for gaming, especially in the future, performance will only increase..

EDIT:

Followed the instructions and set it up, was slightly confusing at first, but got around it, forgot to add the environmental variables the first time, it worked the second time.

Problem is my CPU still cannot handle the 10Bit 4K files (even with the lowest SVP settings), however the strange thing is VLC & MPV demand MUCH MORE power than MPC + Madvr + SVP.

It's strange because using MPC+Madvr+SVP I can run any 4K content (except 10Bit 4K) using my own custom settings for SVP very smoothly. Maybe it's because the LAV Video Filter is directing NVIDIA CUVID to do hardware acceleration for HEVC? While using VLC & MPV, the CPU tries to do this decoding, and it just adds A LOT more power on it that it cannot handle?

Noooo

Oh well, I'll let my eyes see what they want to see for now

EDIT:

By the way, new nVidia drivers are out, they added these new features:

Video SDK 8.0

• High-bit-depth (10/12-bit) decoding (VP9/HEVC)

• OpenGL input surface support for encoder

• Weighted Prediction

• H.264 ME-only mode enhancements

Never use DSR for video players or for watching videos or general browsing. Use native resolution. If you want to improve picture quality for video content, use Madvr with MPC.

I just watched Star Wars a few days ago, I know I am extremely late to the party. But I watched Episode 4, 5, and 6 with no issues.

The problem you are having is weird. Can you use Madvr with MPC (don't run SVP right now), and run Episode 5, press CTRL + J to get the stats in the top left corner of the video (take a screen shot), then run Episode 6, take a screenshot of the stats in that too. Post both pictures here. Use Imgur (website) if you want to upload the pictures to a site, then link us here.

I suspect that Episode 6 is running in a different format... Might be why you're having issues.

Which nVidia drivers are you using? The latest ones? Because a few people around here reported issues with SVP with the latest nVidia drivers.

Haha thanks for the reply. Yeah I forgot to update about that. 10-Bit content looks fantastic with MPV (Right click on SVP and "Open file via MPV"). However, it lags! HORRIBLY! CPU usage is through the roof, and the video is just unwatchable. I see one frame move every few seconds. So if there's a way to change MPV settings, let me know. That would be great. Check the picture below of SVP Performance Monitor.

EDIT #1:

Changing the profile to AUTOMATIC, and then using the slider to put it on Higher Performance + High Artifact Masking and now it works perfectly smooth at around 40% CPU usage with my 4790K @ 4.6Ghz right now. But I can't use my custom settings with 10-Bit content. It requires much more power to work than 8-Bit videos. I'm going to go test Jason Bourne, I think I have that in 4K @ 10-Bit.

EDIT #2: It all depends on the content... Some content lags like crazy no matter what...

This means you probably don't have an issue, you were simply rendering more frames than your monitor needed when using MPC. Are you sure MPC is not running in exclusive mode at 60FPS? That would explain why when you turned on "Smooth Motion" you no longer got dropped frames. Are you sure you checked that your monitor is running at 72Hz after the driver update? Maybe it reverted back to 60Hz.

For example if you're running 3x movie framerate on a 24FPS video, which means it's running at 72FPS, and MPC for some reason is running at 60FPS, then it drops 12 frames every second.

When you turn on Smooth Motion in Madvr, and set it to always, it "fixes" this issue because there's no longer dropped frames, it does its own smoothing system where it doesn't drop the extra 12 frames being rendered every second, instead Madvr uses them.

I use this method. I always have Smooth Motion enabled. No it's not dangerous. Who told you it's dangerous? In fact I think it's better to have it on and always run movies at natural frame rate jumps. Such as 2x or 3x. Running at 3x on a 60Hz monitor/tv would mean you're always dropping frames, but with Smooth Motion enabled, it always feels smoother (could be placebo). Like Madvr is taking those extra frames and it's using them in its own way.

I use x3 movie and I am running a 4K TV @ 60Hz, I have Smooth Motion always enabled on Madvr. I get 0 dropped frames and 0 delayed. Once you start getting dropped or delayed frames with Smooth Motion enabled, it means you're going over the limit either in Madvr settings or in your SVP settings.

What SVP Settings are you using? I fixed the performance issues I was having with 4K videos already by using MPC x64 and changing the settings below.

I'm running a GTX 1070 and a 4790K @ 4.6Ghz on a Sony X800D 4K HDR TV.

First of all, you want to right click SVP and go to "Video Frame" and select "Keep Normal Size".

Second of all, I use the settings below for 4K videos, you don't need to have 3X Movie Frame Rate selected, just choose to SCREEN. The most important aspect, is to keep "Decrease Grid Step" on DISABLED.

I posted as links instead of images because on normal 1080p screens those images would take a lot of space for most people.

EDIT - MUST DO THESE:

I forgot, in Madvr Settings go to Devices (Left Menu) --> Choose your TV/Monitor --> Properties --> Under 3D Format, choose None.

Go to Rendering (Left Menu) --> Stereo 3D --> Disable ALL.

Go to Processing (Left Menu) --> Artifact Removal --> Disable BOTH.

Go to Scaling Algorithms (Left Menu) --> Image Downscaling --> Choose Lanczos (3 Taps).
--------------------------------------------- > Chroma Upscaling --> Jinc (Tick enable ONLY activate anti-ringing filter).
--------------------------------------------- > Image Upscaling --> Jinc (Tick enable BOTH activate anti-ringing filter & scale in sigmoidal light).

I'm having issues playing 4K content with Madvr & SVP. Even though I was playing these very same 4K files fine before with my 1080p TV. I think I have an old version of SVP 4 that Chainik gave me before, I might need to retest that one and see if it solves the issue (here comes the fun part of going through old files stored deep down in my external drives haha).

EDIT:

Qt5Script.dll is missing for SVPManager.pro-60.exe that I got which comes with its own Plugins-60 & Script-60 folders. But I guess that dll file doesn't exist anymore with SVP 4.1? I don't know, can you send me that DLL file? @Chainik

EDIT #2:

Uninstalled SVP, and reinstalled 64-Bit everything from the installer. Downloaded MPC 64Bit. 4K content stopped crashing. Everything seems to be working fine now, I will do more testing.

I will do a lot of testing and update you guys on what's happening. I'm just waiting for it to get delivered. I didn't get it today, so that means it won't be coming until next week. Delivery doesn't operate on the weekend in Australia, so I'd be very surprised if it arrived tomorrow or Sunday. Hopefully Monday or Tuesday.
