aka 4.25 lite

Tested 4.25 with my usual interference pattern clip and it seems to have the fewest artifacts thus far, certainly fewer than 4.18. Not sure about GPU load.

That would be 4.16 lite IIRC. Anyway, 4.22 lite is good enough.

From my quick test I can see that 4.22 fixed the edge artifacts and scene transitions seem better compared to 4.18, but interference patterns are a bit more obvious. I'll watch an entire episode of Dr. Who later to see if there are other problems sticking out.

I haven't noticed any smoothness problems since I don't watch anime. I only tested with my usual football scenes
and 4.21 still has the same edge artifacts as 4.20 in those scenes.

BTW, 4.22 is out. Maybe they fixed it with this one. Testing now.

Finally figured out what to do with HFR sources. My Doctor Who Season 10 is 50 fps by default and if I enable RIFE, my 60 Hz TV is not displaying 100 Hz or 125 Hz properly, so it's barely better than with RIFE turned off especially noticeable with panning shots. There is a simple fix for this, but it somehow did not occur to me until now: "remove every other frame" must be turned on. And of course fixed 60 FPS. That's it, that simple.

I just had SVP trigger in "ignore HFR sources" profile, but I'm not really sure why this happened. I'm watching S10 of the new Doctor Who series and all episodes appear to be encoded at 25 fps according to MPV. However, starting with Episode 6, SVP is triggering the ignore HFR sources profile after saying it is playing at 50 fps. How does SVP identify some videos as HFR and some as non-HFR if all are 25 fps? Also, if I raise the video frame rate threshold from 47 to 60 on the ignore HFR sources profile, the RIFE profile gets triggered with fixed 60 fps, but some videos exhibit strange microstuttering as if they are not truly running at 60 fps, probably because of the threshold conversion. Any way to fix this?

What are these for exactly?

I tested a bit with 4.18 and IC 99%, as well as 25% and it seems like 25% has less microstuttering for me, although the scene changes present a bit harsher at times. Have to test with more content.

Heh, I wanted to report about my tests with the latest SVP update, but now I see Rife V4.18 is out.

I'll check the new Rife version and report on that too, but I can confirm that, with 4.15, SVP MV improved to the point it is almost the same as NVOF and IC. I can still see a bit more microstutter with SVP MV and maybe a few more artifacts.

I'll have to give IC 99% a try, have been using 100%. Also, with the latest MPV update, I can't remember if hwdec=auto-copy needs to be disabled in conf... please advise.

Installed the latest update and I noticed the Duplicate Frame Removal drop-down switched to Remove Every Other Frame. Shouldn't this stay on Don't Remove, even with Image Comparison + SCT 100% + Blend Adjacent Frames?

I've done some more testing with MPC-BE. Unfortunately I can still see microstuttering, but it looks like this is linked to improperly encoded videos or weird sources. I watched the first three episodes from The Boys S4 and haven't really noticed any micostuttering. On the other hand, all the episodes from Doctor Who S9 are encoded at 25 fps and leaving x2.5 multiplier results into frame skips every few seconds. If I switch to fixed 60 fps, the skips turn into occasional microstutter (at least 3-4 per 46-minute episode).
