The best thing you can do at this point is to not crop at all and instead, in MPC-HC, right click on the video area and select "Touch Window from Outside" and making sure "Keep Aspect Ratio" is checked.

Then from there use the pan & scan function to move the video down/move your viewing area up (you can change the keyboard key for this function in MPC-HC's options fyi).

Though really it should only appear when launching a video and not any other time.

Perhaps disable automatic black-bar detection?

Your PC is way more than enough for 480p content, even if it was 10bit.

Basically you could "max out" SVP's settings and still not even get close to hitting the limit of your system.

Really then you might as well just set everything to maximum (except artifact masking) and then experiment with the following two settings because they will directly effect the artifacting:

SVP Shader
Motion vectors grid

(though for anime, you don't really want to use any shader settings other than "Sharp" or "Complicated")

Also, with such high settings, you may need to increase the amount of processing threads that SVP uses (currently it's "automatic" selection is not great) because otherwise you can get slow performance while still only using like 30% CPU utilization; you want to use the smallest amount of processing threads possible that still gives you a perfectly smooth result.

A couple other things to recommend that are not exclusive to anime nor SVP but can still help:

If you use MadVR, set SVP to use your Intel integrated graphics while your Radeon 390 is used for MadVR.

Also use MPC-HC's or MadVR's automatic resolution changer (may require the use of custom resolutions) to automatically set your screen refresh rate to an exact multiple of the source video frame rate (because 24fps playing back at 72Hz is smoother and has less artifacts than 24fps playing at 75Hz).

Can't you just manually seek to a few seconds before the end of a video and skip the torturous viewing of low-framerate content?

Alternatively, you could intentionally find some native high-framerate content.

Try turning this on.

The obvious thing to do is completely close SVP (via right clicking the tray icon) and see if it still happens.

If it does, then it's something with the media player, not SVP.

Reclock is not necessary if you use custom resolutions or similar to run your display at an exact multiple of the source video framerate combined with MPC-Hc's automatic resolution changer, thereby allowing you to run at something like 47.952Hz for 23.976fps but also 48.000Hz for 24.000fps or similar.

Let me guess - you were looking at a 1080p OLED?

Even the newest 1080p OLED uses a 2 year old panel design (the EG9100 uses the same panel as the EC9300).  That was only like a 2nd or 3rd generation OLED TV and there's already been 3 successive OLED generations; by comparison the 2016 OLED TVs are very much in a class of their own relative to any other currently-available TV technology.

Even if it was 4k, it was most likely the EG9600 model which itself is still 2 generations old (18 months).

Also, RGBW is not pentile - pentile means that you have less than 3 sub-pixels per "real" pixel (such as RGBG across two pixels).

Protip:

SVP works regardless of the video codec.

Support for the video codec is purely determined by the media player, not SVP (which is separate from said media player).

Really the biggest issue is that, last I checked, the MPC-HC (and therefore LAVfilters) that is bundled with SVP is kind of outdated...but honestly it'd be silly to update it until the next version of MPC-HC comes out because it should be released any day now.

But be aware that setting up mpv to automatically change your display refresh rate is a massive pain unless you are well capable of handling coding, command lines, or similar.

I just want to clarify that this is less an Intel issue and more a GPU architecture issue seeing how Haswell's iGPU can handle SVP perfectly fine (even lower-end models like my Pentium G3258).
