This started happening after the latest update. No settings have been changed, it happens with just one video, and a couple of thin green lines appear on the sides of the movie, and the "SVP PLAYING AT" and profile appear in grey scale for some reason I cannot understand.
The green bars sort of "flicker". And once again, they go away with SVP turned off, and are not present in any other video.
Any ideas?
what is CPU load w/o SVP running?
probably hw video decoder is turned off
Howdy again. CPU load idle is 4%
CPU load while playing 4k without SVP running is between 12 to 20%
CPU Load while playing 4k with SVP running is 85 to 100%
How can I turn on the HW video decoder?
Thanks again!
Sorry, spoke too soon. Still having the same issue. Happening even at lowest profile settings even with the 64 bit version of potplayer.
> Potplayer 32bit
Switch to 64-bit version at the first place.
Thanks for the response. That was the root of the problem, also the fact that I had not loaded the 64 version of SVP along with 64bit pot player and ffdshow.
For reasons which are irrelevant to SVP, I had to reinstall my OS, and the programs on it.
I had SVP 4 along with potplayer before, and I had backed up all the files for my previous installation to make sure I was using the right potplayer version and the right FFDSHOW version, too. My system specs are:
Windows 10 Professional 64bit
Potplayer 32bit.
Intel i7 4770k with HT on (A bit old, I know)
GTX 1070 FTW.
16GB of 2300mhz RAM.
CM Silent Pro m2 850Watt PSU.
Unfortunately, I can no longer play 4k movies with SVP on, I will never get to the 60fps. I only use the slider for the video profile and in the past I had it set to higher quality. I do have GPU Acceleration turned on, and I do have the GTX 1070 set to be used with it, even when SVP kept trying to make me use the integrated graphics instead. My CPU is being used to 100% when playing 4k and it wasn't the case before.
I followed the potplayer and svp instructions on the main SVP website, which are the same instructions I had before, and video playback was very smooth at 4k.
Any ideas what I may be forgetting about? Any help would be highly appreciated.
Thanks!
Hello guys,
I have been using SVP4 already but today out of nowhere got this message which will not go away in spite of already having watched movies.
Unable to init GPU-Based renderer [ code 0xFFFB](C:\Users\xxxx\AppData\Roaming\SVP4\scripts\30940.avs,line42)(C:\Users\xxxx\AppData\Roaming\SVP4\scripts\30940.avs,line59)(ffdshow_filter_avisynth_script,line3).
So, my framerates are still good, I do not get any stutters or freezes, this means my frame ratio index is still 1.00 on the resource monitor. Could this just be a bogus message? If so how can I may it go away? I am using it on POTPLAYER.
Thanks!
It's an error with "default" number of threads
just set it to 15 for i7 CPU and you'll be fine"application settings" -> "additional options" -> "processing threads"
will be fixed ASAP
===
fixed, just restart Manager and you should find and update available
Thank you! That was definitely it. I am glad it was something so simple.
I just tried Pacific Rim again with the full performance slider and artifacts masking on high. This makes the movie a lot more watchable, but moving the slider just 1 point closer to the middle makes the frames go to weird varying speeds. CPU usage is still 30%
i will try and watch Frozen later and see if i can find a proper setting. Hopefully there will be some patch or information about this
Sounds like a plan. I watched a couple of animated movies too, Advent Children, How to Train your Dragon, etc.. they don't have any slowdown for me when I set the profile to Animation.
Definitely looking forward for more information and patches.
Hi
I had already written a post about this, but decided to play around a little more before i posted it. I have the same issues, the CPU usage only goes up to about 30% (Intel Core i7-4790K) no matter what settings i use, and some parts of movies slow down so much that the audio gets 2 or 3 seconds ahead.
An example of this is in the start of Pacific Rim where there is a night vision scene, all the specs and grainy footage (as you described as well) must be clogging up the system due to some matrix algoritms that has to calculate everything before it will continue with the next frames.Is your CPU usage also limited to a certain amount Or does it go all the way to 100%?
Thanks for the reply 
Yup!, Just tried it with PR as well, it is choppy since the beginning and my CPU usage only reaches 57%, this is using the slider option "Optimal". My CPU is an i7 4770K. Even with the slider all the way to Higher Performance, the frames are better, issues go away, CPU increases usage by 10 to 15%, but quality is worse than my settings in SVP 3.
Hello,
I've just installed SVP 4 from SVP 3 and left the same plugins (AVYSYNTH,FFDSHOW) for SVP4 to use. The issue I am encountering is that SVP 4 loses a lot of performance on some movies where there is a lot of action going on in some scenes or a film with a lot of grain in.
Examples:
Black Hawk Down has great scenes with 4 humans in it, but at the second there are a lot of humans, and helicopters, the movie becomes much slower than 24FPS and there is an uncoordinated stream of video/audio.
300: It cannot be viewed, the Movie picture is grainy as intended, it seems the grain in the picture is what causes a slowdown.
Battle of Britain: An old movie on Bluray, also has a lot of grain, therefore there is a slowdown.
It also happens to be the case with MP4 video files and only very select MKV files. This does not occur with SVP3 unless Motion Vectors Grid is set to a higher value than 12 PX. Average 2 (Default). I believe this may be the case of SVP 4 not having as many setting options and only having a slider for Performance and Quality.
The issue I have is that I was placed on Higher Quality by default system scan, but this problem will persist until I move the slider all the way to the right, so I lose a lot of detail and immersion, but the frames are consistent.
Is there something I am missing here?
Thanks for your time, Please let me know if I need to provide any reports or the like.

The Guide I am referring to is the one found here for pot player:
Turn off GPU acceleration - will it work?
How did you moved to intel's system - was it a clean Windows re-installation or just an update?
Hello, Turning Off GPU Acceleration won't work. The move was a clean re-installation, a complete new platform.
Hello Team,
You will have to apologize me as I do not know what information to provide but I will gladly follow instructions as I have much to learn.
I used the latest SVP offering in the past with an AMD cpu+gpu system and now that I went over to Intel+AMD I cannot get SVP to work correctly. I followed the set up instructions found in a guide online and downloaded the required files.
When I play a movie and "Preparing Smooth Video Playback" comes up, it freezes and the video player stops working. This happens with all type of video files of all sizes and it does not happen when SVP is not running.
Is this something you could help me out with? What do I need to provide?
Thank you for your time!
