Dont know whats the problem. After downgrading my nvidia driver to 285.62 the crashes still occur sometimes randomly, again sad
even after changing the video profiles from 3 to 2 (both with gpu and cpu enabled) still have crashes  mad
I think this is an issue of SVP 3.1.2? waiting for an update
about bad cooling.. no i don't think so , because gpu temperature is normal in watching 1080p videos

My system passed the Linpact test for 30 minutes. I haven't tried MemTest86+ test, because the installation requires a USB flash drive and I need to backup the files in it first
Also memory usage in GPU-Z is normal, ~500 MB

You need to install latest version of SVP 3.1.2
I am using 3.1.2.
Now you must to test your CPU, your memory and your video with stress tests to find bad working device in your system.
I have tested using 3Dmark 11. Demo video resulted in program restart and driver stopped responding, while benchmark test 3 times running fine

Update:
when playing a "bad" video (x264 1080p 24 fps), I changed the supported thread from "Auto" to 4, and video lagged, so i changed to 2 and still lagged, then changed again to "Auto". Guess what? It doesn't lagged and crashed anymore, and i noticed an increase in my cpu usage from 50% to 60-70%.  big_smile
I also able to run SVPmark test now with GPU acceleration on, but from the three tests result there is "N/A" in one of the the sub test in Real life / FHD test..


OK done, below attached the result file

Pass, but with GPU accleration disabled, otherwise it's crashed
I've run another Furmark burn-in test and it was fine, so the system is stable
I suspect this is because of the "bad" Nvidia driver, later i will downgrade it to v285.23 and will give the result

I have installed the new driver. The video seems to be working fine after a few videos played, but then in the next videos the previous problem started to come back. And then after a few videos it was fine again. hmm All with OpenCL enabled
This is really confusing me.   roll

830 MB memory usage while playing and while crash by looking at history diagram. It's pretty high considering my GPU memory is only 1 GB sad
So, what should I do to decrease memory GPU  usage while retaining as much detail possible?

In Windows logs the error is like this:

I use Windows 7 SP1 64-bit. And the Nvidia driver also stopped responding (driver 306.23)  sad
This is what happens to my system when i set "GPU Accel" to True:

Media Player Classic - Home Cinema has stopped working

A problem caused the program to stop working correctly. Please close the program.

and

Microsoft Windows

Close programs to prevent information loss

Your computer is low on memory. Save your files and close these programs:

Media Player Classic - Home Cinema


Windows will only close enough programs to restore needed memory.

You mean SVP has a GPU stress test? I had done a linear stress test with Furmark 5 months ago when I bought the GPU, and it was running fine. Not sure if the GPU is broken.

If I set GPU-acceleration (OpenCL) to TRUE, the video plays fine for a about 10 seconds but then the player (MPC) will crash and stop working (not always, but often). This happens particularly in high bitrate 720p and 1080p videos. But, the weird thing is, it's played fine if set to False.  hmm 
How to fix this? I have 4 GB RAM. If GPU acceleration is set to True,  the memory usage is 50%, while CPU usage is about 25-50% for high bitrate 720p x264 videos and 55-70% for high bitrate 1080p x264 videos.

MAG79
So the meaning of "highest" sub-test is that the minimum value SVP produce should be at least 60 fps, is it? My score is 21.4 fps, so that means my CPU and/or GPU still doesn't have enough resources to process 1080p videos in 60 fps with highest setting?
This makes me more certain to upgrade the CPU. I see that the 4 cores+HT CPU  has a little bit higher score in SVPmark than 8 cores. Interesting big_smile

Hi I've been using SVP for some times.
I have Core i5 750 2.67 GHz, and Geforce GTX 560 Ti 1 GB. In the future I want to upgrade my CPU, so I need to know how many CPU cores SVP supports now and in the future?

Also, I use video profiles level 2, is it suitable for my system? And what is the benefit and the weakness if I use profile higher than 2?

Thank you guys for making this awesome program. big_smile
