I think 2.6 wasn't crashing so much on seek, but would still sometimes freeze when loading videos.

Every now and then, MPC-HC process needs to be killed and re-opened.

Then I'm also loading the video through an AVS script to re-tune to 432hz instead of opening it directly which adds to the instability.

Edit: I think you're right. 2.6 doesn't crash on seek. Only on load.

I don't think I've ever seen SVP without that bug. Perhaps there's a configuration combination that minimizes it but I haven't got that configuration.

Chainik, how complicated is ffdshow? As I understand it, it's an old piece of code that is totally unmanageable and is dead since long, and it does a whole bunch of things. Just to do the AviSynth integration, would it be very difficult to rewrite a "ffdshow lite" that does just that in the simplest and most stable way?

I will also add at the new AVS+ initializes considerably faster.

In my Natural Grounding Player, when playing at 432hz, I edited the script to repeat the first frame for half-second to fill up the buffer to avoid lag on start. It's working pretty smooth!

The new AVS+ requires Visual C++ Runtimes 2015. Try installing that.

OK I've been watching videos for 1h30 and it's been surprisingly smooth. Only 2 videos got choppy (both were 1080p). One was unwatcheable until it stopped chopping off and the other one was choppy for 15 seconds and then recovered normal playback. You say v4.0.0.60 doesn't have that issue? mmm

This bug has been around for a while but now it has to be fixed somehow. Everything else is working very smooth with this AVS+ version but this bug got worse when it happens.

Btw, when I increased the amount of threats, it might have increased the frequency of this bug. After setting the thread count back to auto, everything got smooth except a few random rare exceptions.

I know it's frustrating when there is a recurring bug and we can't figure out why the heck it's happening. In my Natural Grounding Player, each video starts the playback twice and I tried figuring out why several times and could never fix it... uh...

I've been watching a bunch of videos without a single frame delay.

The only videos that have problem are sometimes 1080p videos, whether displaying on 1080p TV or 768p laptop screen.

It will stop for half-second at a time and the continue when the CPU is clearly not at 100%.

2.6 sometimes get a "little bit" choppy, but the effect is much less worse. I believe it's the same bug but the side-effects are handled differently. Perhaps it's even happening more often with AVS+.

Oh, and the greatly reduced memory usage makes the x64 memory leak more manageable

Sometimes the playback gets choppy with CPU usage going up and down, not sure why.

The middle part of the graph is while playing a 1080p video, and strangely enough, after saving a first screenshot, then it started playing smoothly and I've let it keep playing smoothly (last part of the graph). Not sure what happened.

How is the VapourSynth version going? I suppose it's more stable than the AviSynth version? Any drawbacks? VapourSynth itself is still young.

Edit: madVR doesn't work with mvp and Madshi doesn't seem interested in supporting it

I might mention it here although I don't know whether it has been fixed already.

Some time ago, I manually updated the madVR folder with a newer release. Afterwards, SVP said there was an updated version of madVR but failed to update. There was no way to get the update to work. The only solution was to copy back the original folder of madVR (luckily I kept it), and then let the update manager update it from there.
