Hi Chainik. On the system i had here a few minutes ago, if i remember correctly, it would not give any load to the Nvidia GPU when nvidia was ticked, just Intel, like the setting didn't change anything. Intel's load would be around 30~ 40% on 1080p, i don't quite understand what happens for it to be so stuttery.

I'll try to check it again once i get the chance, but i am almost certain it did not give any load to the Nvidia GPU when Nvidia was ticked.

EDIT: Btw, Chainik, i remembered that on Nvidia Drivers, i am unable to change Media Player Classic's GPU for rendering, it's stuck on "Integrated Graphics" option, maybe this is the cause for the OpenCL checkbox not working? Is there any workaround you can think of?

Hello. I did a few updates to the settings in the topic before. I had the Output set to "Video Mixing Renderer 9", but i found out that it will slowly go out-of-sync with the audio. So, switch to the new image's settings (basically just switch "Video mixing Renderer 9" for "Enhanced Video Renderer (Custom)" and it will be working flawless.

As for Chainik question: I did get the chance to try out another Intel + Nvidia combo (i7 one with GTX740M), and i think i narrowed the issue down to the Intel Drivers. I disabled the Nvidia GPU, rebooted the system and tried to run the videos after reseting SVP.

As usual, MadVR would have extremely choppy playback on Windowed mode, and in Fullscreen it would be in slow motion. Using GPU acceleration (OpenCL) ticked, all video renderer modes would make the video run on slow motion as well.

And again, using the above settings, (disabling GPU acceleration and setting the PC to the profile "4c" on "Video Modes" » "Reset to default", etc) would leave the PC able to render 1080p videos at proper 60FPS without any jumpiness.

I also noticed that it's EXTREMELY important to have the option "D3D Fullscreen" ticked on MPC. Without it, the video is very choppy, so make sure you don't forget it!

Hello There. I found a 100% working workaround for this issue (it seems to be affecting a lot of Intel + Nvidia Hybrid Graphics Laptops from my testing, so far all of them are affected (3 Systems tested)).

Here's what you gotta do to get SVP working in all it's glory!

FOLLOW THE INSTRUCTIONS PRECISELY. One missed setting and it WILL NOT WORK!

After installing SVP, do this:

1 - Right Click SVP Manager on the background apps icon, and change the "Interface Mode" to "Expert";
2 - Right Click it again, and this time go to "GPU Acceleration" and select "Disabled" (or if you don't have this, unckeck the option "GPU-Aceleration");
3 - Right click it again, and go to "Video Modes" » "Reset to Defaults". A new window will pop-up.
4 - Change the "Rendering Mode" from "g. GPU" to "c. CPU".  Leave the "CPU Performance Level" at the one SVP chose automatically (in case after following all instructions the video is still slow, Select the profile "4" or "3" and try again).
5 - Press OK. Re-Reset the Settings to Default, and make sure SVP still has "Rendering Mode: c. CPU" Selected.
6 - Right click it one Last time, and go to "Turn Off on Seek" and select "Don't turn off".
7 - Now, Open up Media Player Classic. Click "View » Options". Select the "Playback  -  Output" Option. Copy all settings from the bellow image. ALL OF THEM MUST BE COPIED 1 BY 1 OR IT WILL NOT WORK.

IMPORTANT NOTES:
On some PC's, the video wont be smooth unless you are running the video on Fullscreen (double click on the video to open fullscreen mode).
On some PC's, it might take SVP 3~4s to stabilize the image. Once stable, it will remain smooth for the rest of the video.
On Some PC's, the video WON'T be smooth UNLESS you view it in FULLSCREEN.

Bonus Tip:
If you don't like it when SVP switches from Smooth to "Not Smooth" on action Scenes, open a video, double click the "SVP Manager" icon on the background tasks bar, and select "Uniform (Max Smoothness)" on the option "Frames Interpolation Mode".

Now, i'm not sure why GPU acceleration is not working properly on these Intel/Nvidia Computers, all i know is with this CPU-Only settings it just works and we can all enjoy SVP in all it's glory smile

Hope this helps other people with problems!
