I'm not touching W10 on my HTPC until I know it works _ sound like a can of worms _ plus there doesn't seem to be a way to shut off Windows update. There is nothing more annoying than having the computer restart right in the middle of a movie or a message flashing across the screen that windows is installing/installed updates and it needs restarting.
SVP 4 works better with a 4K video though on this Dell Alienware laptop I have W10 installed on, it pushes the CPU to only 62% where it was at 100% with 3.1.7.

I won't be trouble shooting too much with 4K videos as there is really no content yet, but I thought I would bring it up.
Plus any trouble shooting would have to be performed on my 4K projector and I'm not about to eat lamp hours doing that _ I may have to get a 4K monitor, but since UHD Blu-ray isn't scheduled to be released until the end of the year, I'm not going to worry about for  now.
I just need Chainik to explain what he means by "save the memory" a bit more.

There's the release of W10, the new SVP4 and potential driver incompatibility problems with both _ all happening at once _ too may variables to deal with.
I'll stick with W8.1 until SVP 4 is ironed out, make sure it works and then I may jump to W10 _ maybe.
But there is still that stupid update problem in W10.

And Chainik, the Dell I'm on now as 8GB of memory, with a 4K video it's using less then 2 GB with SVP4

Were you running SVP 3.1.7 before you installed version 4 ?
Is it better then 3.1.7 when it comes to reducing the ghosting/haloing affect ?

I actually couldn't find the settings for madVR, madVR was installed automatically when bundled with SVP and I can't find the control panel _ no matter though, I think I found the problem.
After installing the latest version of MPC-HC, it still crashed again and it pointed directly to ffdshow filter as the problem _ see screen shot.

The version that gets installed with SVP 3.1.7 is 5433, which seems to be the problem, so I reverted back to 4532 and all appears to be well.
At this point I can't be sure if 5433 did or didn't cause the crash in the beginning, but it would seem at this point that version 5433 is the problem.
Ffdshow version 4533 is not even listed on their web site, version 5432 is stated to be the latest version, so I am not sure where you are getting 5433 from ???
It seems unstable. The movie where it does this is "The Woman In Gold" Blu-ray region "A", so far that is the only one that causes the crash _ other sub-title tracks on other Blu-rays don't seem to do it.
But then again I've only been running SVP 3.1.7 for just a few days.

This would be great if this could be done.

I only watch Blu-rays and they are all 1920x1080p at 23.976 fps. with the exception of a few from the UK at 24fps.
Maybe at Christmas time when they actually come out with 4K discs, but the cost of upgrading everything would be so expensive, it wouldn't be practical.
The least expensive 4K projector right now is around 8,000.00$ US, then I would need a new MoBo and some sort of super processor to interpolate frames at 2160p. The least expensive piece of hardware would be a computer based Blu-ray reader to read the very small "pits" on a triple layer 4k disc. (I'm guessing about that)
Although things are supposed to be filmed at 60fps with 4k, so there won't be any need for interpolation anymore.
However I did read an article that they are still going to stick with 24fps (23.976fps), so I am guessing that even though the master may be at 60fps, they will be downscaling it to 23.976fps.
I could never understand the publics need to stick with such old technology _ 24fps. I occasionally turn the interpolation feature off and it becomes intolerable to watch, eg. The Tale Of Princes Kaguya _ the opening has a pan of a bamboo forest that is so irritating to watch with out interpolation that IMO, can't be watched and yet people do. The public has some how convinced itself that the director intended it to be that way _ really _ it looks like shit ! 

There is so little information about it, that I just can't concern myself with it now. 

The strange thing about that new Sony 4K projector is that it can't even accept a native 4K input, the specs clearly show this.
The only ones that can are not truly 4K either, they are 1080p, and they use a method to shift the pixels diagonally to increase their density.
That's JVC and the newest Epson.
So the Epson and JVC projectors would be downscaling the 2160p input and then applying the projectors hardware to upscale it to their pixel shift technology.

Anyways, I'm getting sort of off subject here...

5 times more expensive ! _ that'll give me an excuse now to buy the new NVIDIA TitanX !   

Yup 
I agree with you there, the whole card and water cooler is stowed away in a box...

I got the 290, to solely run the AMD Motion Flow thing with Cyberlinks Power DVD 14 app _ waste of time and money.

He He He !!!
Maybe, but in the past, that I've always wasted money buying low end components only having to upgrade later on.
So I just jumped in for the whole ball of wax.

I can run DmitriRender at the same time with SVP _ I can use the settings in SVP to control the artifact problem in DmitriRender although I am just using SVP right now.

Just posted some links for you. 

That reference cooler is lousy _ there was a time when I was even planning to water cool and I have the bits to water cool the CPU to run SVP overclocked, but I'm still waiting for my "Be Quiet" fans from NCIX. 

Go with the 980, and I am saying that based on my personal experience with AMD, I found they have a tendency to run too hot when pushed too hard. That may be fine for an AMD card, but all that heat transfers into the case where other components have to deal with it.

The 980 has 2048 cores as apposed to the 970's 1664 cores _ more guts to run things.
