As I said, this is just VRR framepacing issue through the driver level, older drivers or LSFG ontop prevents monitor spontaneous refreshes, as you can see, earlier, I noticed how much VRR jumps got through standard MPV playback on new stable drivers, which not happens with LSFG ontop or after SpecialK injection, SpecialK makes 72FPS content not only smooth, but fast, not sure how that effect occurs, tested Gemini movie at real 60FPS compared to 24>60 and was surprised how SpecialK deliver frames, but I dont know how to inject SpecialK through MPV swapchain directly!
UPD: Found best solution to change present methods through NVPI program (inspector)! WORKS!!!
Did some more testing. My Nvidia MPO on Windows 11 works well, especially for fast motion, but I was having issues with slow panning. Turning off MPO is better for slow pans, smoother overall, almost stutter free at 6% and pretty much stutter free at 8%. Since MPO is off I've also turned off the other Windows optimisations since Nvidia MPO is designed to work with them. More testing to do but, Optical Flow is helping smoothness again but without the stutters or at least that is the case so far. I'm basically back to where I was at the start lol.
Looks like only LSFG works well, no matter of drivers, making low framerate content look better!
RIFE + LSFG = better (for me)
As better, because RIFE 24>72 looks good but framepacing issue still occurs (driver issue), LSFG 72 target, voila, buttery smooth! Magic!

Where do you get it from? Steam purchase?

As of today my settings are SVP: Rife v4.25, IC 8%, Blend Adjacent Frames. MPV: Interpolation on, resample audio. GPU: 577 or 566.36. Windows 11 Optimization for Windowed Apps: MPV
Optical flow seems to also help possibly removing the need for the overclock but at the cost of the occasional major stutter so nope.

SVP doesn't work well with HAGS which means that Nvidia Smart Motion doesn't work properly. When it doesn't crash, it might work for a little then starts making everything stutter. Is there any chance of a fix for that so that Nvidia GPU owners can try Smart Motion paired with SVP?

Dunno. I read about it somewhere that flip gets similar performance to exclusive that's why I re-enabled Nvidia MPO, but if you turn on exclusive then it is smart enough to bypass itself or something like that.

Any Nvidia driver should be fine, but if you are having issues then fallback to either 566.36 and 577.

I would be surprised if LFSG ignores filp models since modern Nvidia drivers all have Multiplane Overlay built in specifically to work with it. This was one of the Nvidia features I turned off not knowing that I was probably hurting more than helping.
I wouldn't play with the MPV swapchain. From my testing I found that the default is ideal so that's what my SVP Nvidia settings also use. I forgot to add this to my settings list because I set this up some time ago.
As for transcoding speed, I only look at the end results. Are packets dropped? Is the GPU stuck on 100%? Is SVP stable around 0.99 to 1.01 or is it fluctuating? My current answers are no, no and stable.

These SVP settings fixes Rife's double image issues with fast vertical motion in movies like Dr Strange 2. Also GPU usage is greatly reduced. Maybe this is because it doesn't try to interpolate as many frames?.
These MPV settings stops it from dropping frames and helps with any remaining smoothness issues after SVP interpolation. I also use exclusive full screen but for most users I don't think this is "needed".
These Nvidia settings are not the only option but these work as well as any. A mild overclock still works best which is strange considering the GPU usage but maybe the peaks are higher?
The Windows settings are for MPV and other relevant software to work optimally with Windows 11.
I'm sure there's other ways of doing this, but this is the first time I have an explainable reason for each setting instead of just hope. This works for my VR setup so YMMV.

Strange because 566.36 always worked well for me. 577.00 was maybe even better and the latest official Nvidia release is as good as the others. So as I said it will be a local setup issue. Doesn't mean that "you" are doing anything wrong. It just means that there's something in your setup that is the real cause. Could be a card limitation or needing a "clean install" not an express install. Could be Windows 10/11 settings. For me it was kind of all of the above plus more because I'm using VR.

After my recent update I was still seeing the occasional stutter until I rebooted my router which also needs to be done semi regularly. But maybe using MPV interpolation is hiding much of the frame variance for me.

I really appreciate this.
So I ran into issues and kind of gave up the other night out of frustration. I got jriver setup to passthrough the capture card to the screen. I tried jriver default processor, and tried connecting it to SVP using the post processing filter avisynth. BUT... every single time I tried to click properties, jriver would crash. I assume I should be able to click on the properties button inside jriver and have something pop up with avisynth? And any video I tried to play via capture card to svp, svp always showed no video playing. I did get svp to register a video was playing out of MPC HC, but it never got ANY changes in the displayed video / processor load beyond SVP recognizing a video was playing, showing a 1.0 ... something in the performance graph.
I feel like I have a wonderfully working madvr setup, albeit, extremely high GPU usage and the typical low framerate. I'm really frustrated I've been unable to make SVP function. I've tried reinstalling, etc.

Did you check the JRiver SVP manual page? https://www.svp-team.com/wiki/SVP:JRiver_Media_Center

Also depending on resolution and GPU, if you already have extremely high GPU usage then SVP will work best with standard the Automatic video profile and not anything more advance.

Fair warning, I know just enough to be dangerous. If any of my thoughts / ideas are wrong, let me know. I have no belief I understand this topic particularly well.
I have a projector in our media room, so I've been using a capture card, videoprocessor (a software application from videoprocessor.org), and madvr for hdr to sdr tonemapping. I've been really happy with the results and was curious if SVP could help smooth out the frame rate. I've seen references to... I think it was MPV video renderer maybe? I believe there is some criticism that madvr may use a ton of extra processor that either doesn't yield significantly better results or better methods now exist to achieve that tone mapping.
Essentially I'd like to know if I can use videoprocessor (which has a dropdown to select any directshow video renderer) and select... SVP maybe? And then is there a way to tie in something like MPV in place of madvr to get smooth frames combined with great tone mapping? I'd like to avoid having to change HDR (which I'm doing by mapping everything to sdr) and frame rate "bonks" on the projector as it takes 4 - 8 seconds to resync the HDMI signal. I also use the black bar detection to zoom video to my cinemascope screen.
Is there a way to do what I'm wanting to do? Because I use videoprocessor, I've installed the SVP application, but I don't know where to go from there. I don't see "SVP" in the video renderers, but I did notice... was it MPC Video Renderer show up? Which I believe was installed alongside SVP.
I apologize for these questions. I have madvr setup and working well. Just curious if there are some other options to maximize the viewing experience and potentially have buttery smooth frames for movies.
Thank you for your help!

I can't talk about your specific setup. But in general, MPV can do more picture pre and post processing than MadVR, better than MadVR, much more efficiently than MadVR. But if you are only interested in the HDR tone-mapping then MadVR should be fine and you can ignore my comments below.

Although there are MPV GUI front end options available, MPV is best configured using text based configuration files. Even with the GUI, more advanced MPV configuration requires some patience to gain the knowledge. My advice is to stick with the default MPV configuration that comes with SVP. It's not perfect but it works and is not filled with useless bloat.The other big issue related to my recommendation is that there are lots of MPV "meme configurations" on the Internet which include mostly useless or outdated commands and recommendations.

Thanks for the information! By any chance, have you updated your mpv config since the last time you posted it on this thread?

Yes. I don't remember what I sent because 7/8ths of my config is relevant only to my VR setup, calibration, configuration and personal preferences. But the relevant additional config which applies to anyone is this:

d3d11-exclusive-fs
video-sync=display-resample

The solution I wrote about work but occasionally causes stutters elsewhere. Removed until a more stable solution found.

Very strange. Rife is suddenly dropping dozens of packets so I loaded a backup of my system that worked perfectly for the past week or more and it's still doing the same thing. Same files, same movies, same config, everything is the same but now Rife is dropping packets.

OK Looks like it's fixed after reinstalling GPU drivers.

There's a few commands that do nothing at all which means they don't currently do any harm and I'm not going to repeat myself The rest is just personal choice. The shaders are fine, but these days I only use them for edge cases, because when watching in VR on a very large screen at short distance exposes issues with external shaders that you won't see on a TV or even on a projector. Aliasing is the most obvious but depending on the source, other issues can and usually do arise.
is this works for anyoone? i don't want to take any risks!

There's nothing there that will do any damage. But most of this is probably not relevant for you and the shaders won't work unless you have downloaded them already. If you don't know what I'm talking about then for SVP on Windows just use the default config C:\Program Files (x86)\SVP 4\mpv64\mpv.conf. That is all you need to get going.

I have a setup that some of you may find interesting...
I USE VAPOURSYNTH AND AVISYNTH AT THE SAME TIME
Using an NVIDIA GTX 1650 Mobile (no tensors)
GTX 1650 Mobile doing the processing
AMD integrated graphics HDMI output for display
10x interpolation (23.976 → 239.26 FPS)
1728×720 through AMD HDMI
Only 45% GTX 1650 usage
This is a hybrid GPU setup - NVIDIA doing the heavy interpolation work while AMD handles the display output through HDMI
Smooth AV1 decode with hardware acceleration

Yes the Nvidia is "trying" to do all the work but mostly failing but I see you are doing 10x Interpolation. But using the AMD for output means that once the Nvidia has finished it has to pass the result over to the Integrated GPU via the CPU which is the slowest transport possible.

BTW I might be missing something here, but what makes you think you are using AVI and VAPOURSYNTH at the same time?

The heavy models should have been the best, but they turned out to be worse than the "lite" models. v26 was supposed to be better than v25 but it isn't. He did try but guess he got as far as he could.

Is RIFE v4.26v2 pretty much peak RIFE capability?
I know the author moved on to other things but do we have the best thing now anyway?
Perhaps we just need GPU power to catch up

4.25.
Not the best. But it's the best we have.
GPU power won't solve artifacts. Better models will.
