Anyway, let's start with some of the basics.


1. "Install" (it's really just a fancy-looking extractor) MPC-HC portable:
http://portableapps.com/apps/music_vide … c-portable

2. Run MPC-HC portable and then follow the instructions here to set it up for SVP:
http://svp-team.com/wiki/SVP:MPC-HC

3. Close MPC-HC portable and then launch it again.

4. Finally in MPC-HC portable, open the video you're trying to play through SVP and see if it works.

I've watched 5.1 audio through MPC-HC with SVP just fine in the past...

Wait, I thought the way this worked was that Average gives less smoothness but also less artifacts, hence why it was the default (but whenever I tested it I never really saw a difference)...

Are you saying that "Large" actually results in more smoothness and fewer artifacts?

Actually, before you do that, try a copy of MPC-HC Portable:
http://portableapps.com/apps/music_vide … c-portable

Then follow the instructions here to configure it for SVP:
http://svp-team.com/wiki/SVP:MPC-HC

After that, close the program and then open a video file in portable MPC-HC and see if it works with SVP or not.


Just note that, if you are a user of Livestreamer, it will not work with this version of MPC-HC.

What's the codec, bit depth, framerate, and resolution of the video(s) that you are testing with?

Also, what framerate are you interpolating to; that is, what refresh rate does your monitor run at when watching a video?

The solution by Nintendo Maniac 64 would be too complex and confusing for the end user. He wants CONDITION level priority, but I think PROFILE priority is more easy to understand.)

I only used condition-level priority because that's essentially how SVP currently works.

still I have no idea how to line up all the priorities in some logical and non-conflicting order

I don't know about all of them, but I thought I laid it out quite clearly for four of them; remember, larger priority value = higher priority.


Nintendo Maniac 64 wrote:

Optimally I would think that the following conditions would have priority values so high that even if you put together all the other conditions (including those of lower priority on the following list), the resulting profile would still have lower priority:

[Highest priority] Laptop is on battery
[2nd highest] File name equals
[3rd highest] File name contains
[4th highest] File path contains

Let's say that, if you total up the priority of every single condition except the 4 I have listed above, you get a priority value of 1000 (I just chose a random number).  Therefore, the individualpriority value for "File path contains" would be at least 1001, while the individual priority for "File name contains" would be at least 2002, and the individual priority for "File name equals" would be at least 4004, and finally the individual priority for "Laptop is on battery" would be at least 8008

I tweaked the message from my email slightly so that it included the later-mentioned "Laptop is on battery".


Here are some example profiles using the above logic (P# equals theoretical priority):

____P2 ~ Normal HD____
P1 ~ Source frame area > 0.6
P1 ~ Video frame rate < 33

____P8010 ~ Normal HD Battery____
P1 ~ Source frame area > 0.6
P1 ~ Video frame rate < 33
P8008 ~ Laptop is on battery = yes

____P1001 ~ Anime____
P1001 ~ File path contains 'anime'

____P9009 ~ Anime Battery____
P8008 ~ Laptop is on battery = yes
P1001 ~ File path contains 'anime'

____P4004 ~ Test____
P4004 ~ File name = test


EDIT: Though now that I think about it, the conditons "codec" and "bit depth" are also very important since they can relate to battery life, and therefore should probably fit into that above list somewhere...I'll think about it for a bit and come back to you.

cause it's two matches vs. one
two > one big_smile
as a workaround you can add something like "width < 10000" to the latter one

Did we not have an email discussion saying that optimally, certain profiles (like "laptop battery", "file name", and "file path")  should have greater priority than others?

Beware though, if you have other video profiles with a greater amount of conditions, SVP will insist on choosing those other profiles rather than the profile with the "file path" or "file name" condition (which I find incredibly annoying).


For example, let's say you have two profiles with the following conditions...

____Normal HD____
Source frame area > 0.6
Video frame rate < 33

____Anime____
File path contains 'anime'


If you play a 720p 24fps video located in the folder C:\anime\

...SVP will insist on using the profile "Normal HD"

See if the issue still persists.

If not do the process again but install driver version 15.7.1

You could always try running DDU (LINK and then re-installing your graphics drivers.

The main thing is that Windows 10 likes to install its own drivers from Microsoft which can bork with some things (yes, even on a clean OS installation), and running DDU can help prevent that from occurring.


I mean, I don't think it'll make things worse, and should at least rule out the drivers being the issue.

For that it's highly recommended to run DDU (LINK) and then re-install your drivers.

I don't mean to be naggy, but you didn't clarify if you tried setting the LAV decoder (the same drop-down menu where you select "copy-back") to "None"

Well first off, do you use MadVR?  Because there's a different setting to use if you do.

No, I mean going into the LAVfilters settings and then setting its hardware decoder to "None".

Can you also please recommend me amount of threads I should use for an i5 6600 non-k. I would greatly appreciate it!

I usually just tell people to set it to the smallest amount that still gives perfectly smooth performance but is still greater than the amount of threads their CPU supports.

So for your CPU, don't go any lower than 5.

Since you have SVP4 Pro, try setting the interpolated framerate to "Fixed frame rate 60fps" - click the button to the right of the "Movie x3" button.

I forgot to clarify, the Win7/8.1 drivers should still work on Windows 10 - in fact this may be preferred since, like Nvidia, Intel's Win10 drivers seem to not be that great stability-wise.

(interestingly enough, it seems that AMD's Win10 drivers work just fine with SVP...)

Yeah it's a little tricky - my personal method for finding Intel graphics drivers for Sandy Bridge is to put the following into Google:

It's the first result.  Note that there isn't an official Windows 10 driver, so you have to use the Win7/8.1 driver.


For reference, this trick works on other Intel processors as well; for my Haswell Pentium I just change the '2nd' to '4th' and voila.


BTW, just to check, is your monitor larger than 1920 pixels wide?  I ask this because apparently the iGPU on Sandy Bridge may struggle with SVP at resolutions larger than 1920 pixels wide.

I said I actually tried reinstalling my GPU drivers.

I'm aware of that, but you didn't say whether you used DDU or not - that's the key.  Yes it can make a difference - I had a problem where, after I installed and then uninstalled Nvidia drivers via the normal uninstaller, I was unable to select my integrated Intel graphics in SVP until I ran DDU.

And yes, it can make a difference even if you installed the drivers on a fresh copy of Windows 10 because DDU will attempt to disable Windows's automatic drivers installation since that can sometimes bork up things if you're installing drivers from the vendor rather than from Microsoft.


Mr_SkiZZeX wrote:

I can't really install Intel drivers because I don't have Integrated Graphics on my motherboard.

While you're technically correct, you do still have integrated graphics because it's built into the CPU itself.

If you're saying that your mobo doesn't have a video outputs, well I don't think you actually need to remove your discrete GPU in order to install the Intel GPU drivers...
