I'm not an expert in anime, but I heard that OP/ED are often encoded with different frame rate (constant, not variable, but different).

There's an unknown muxing problem with some mkv's now. The resulting mkv generated with ffmpeg is somehow broken  - this's why I asked about manual remuxing in MKVToolNix.


Remuxing, just opening the transcoded file in mkvtoolnix and then remuxing it, it works normally so far. So that's great! Thanks!

I'm wondering though, since the mkv only contains one video stream, how can some parts of it have a different framerate, when it's listed as constant? Or rather, how can i go about it to find out if that's the case. ffmpeg and MPC-HC doesn't seem to show that anywhere.

1. If different parts of the video have different frame rate values then it's not good - it will be broken in an unknown way after transcoding.
2. Try to re-mux the video manually with MKVToolNix - will it help?

Thanks for the mention, but there's only one video stream/file, and last time i watched something with a variable framerate, SVP made sure to mention it during playback. I have not encountered this with the current files at all, with regular SVP usage. Looking at the media info in MPC-HC it also claims framerate mode is constant, and at 23.976 (24000/1001) fps. So that's a bit confusing. Also, that stops like that under only specific parts of the video has me a bit in awe. The fact that only OP/ED is broken is pretty new to me in terms of video conversion and how it goes back to normal after those parts...

There is, however two audio files that are just the same as well as a .ass subtitle file in the mkv, one of those could be the issue. Especially since the audio tracks both are the exact same as far as i noticed, but one is about double the size of the other.

Been trying it out. It works well most of the time, apart from playback issues on specific parts of a video. Everytime an OP/ED of a anime starts (in my one tested episode) the playback kinda stops. Doesn't do anything but stop, and you can only get past it by skipping it a bit. And then the sound is gone, until the OP ends, at the exact moment it switches back to the episode title. and it's fine until the ED is about to start. I send a report/feedback about it, but wanted to hear if someone else encountered the same here.

Another issue is that the subtitles are transcoded, and thus hardcoded with the video, as well as a subtitle after transcoding, which seems a bit overkill and removes the ability to switch subtitles or switch them off. That should go away too, or at the very least be an option. And i don't know how to turn it off, since it's on by default in the basic mode.

I do see great potential, as someone that has had their troubles with making 60 fps videso before, but these issues are small ones that could be ironed out, hopefully. Anyways, if someones used it, i'd love to hear some feedback that you have!

thanks for the reply, but i still cant see ffdshow on external filters. It is definately installed with SVP

Tried finding it with the add filter button?

Just theorizing on some possible solutions.

Try running SVP as administrator. I don't think it'll work, but it was a partial solution to a problem i had where it would not work.

ffdshow needs to be installed before installing MPC-HC, so maybe try and reinstall the 32 bit version of MPC-HC. (Maybe windows 10 messed that up, i have no clue)

Update:

So, i think i got it to work. Doesn't crash anymore. Though i'm not exactly sure what i did. I went here http://www.svp-team.com/wiki/SVP:MPC-HC and changed this to look like instructed. (Not sure what it was before the W10 install so it might have affected it, i don't know) The thing i changed was the one under internal filter, that was wrong. Though i did a test and it crashed. I'm not sure what i did afterwards, i think i went into the ffdshow filter. (You do that by clicking on the highlighted/marked button in the bottom image on the linked page.) Under "Keys and remote" i changed the bottom check from "ffdshow_remote_message" to "user defined" and used the value present there already (32786) I honestly have no idea what it does by changing that, but i read about it somewhere else and thought it might help me not having to run SVP as administrator for it to recognize and work on videos opened through another program, though i haven't checked if it actually did what i intended it to do... (Taiga is the program for anyone wondering)

I think that was all i did, but i'm not sure if it was my actions that took care of it. But it seems to work now.

Does MPC-HC crash when SVP is closed?

Not him, but no. It becomes unresponsive as soon as SVP opens up and you get the text in the corner of the video signifying that it's doing it's job. Sound plays for a few seconds but the screen freezes, If you try to skip with the slider, it moves the first time(no sounds or video reaction though) and then it freezes. Works completely fine without SVP.

Hi,

Also go the same problem. Upgraded and upon running SVP MPC crashes. Crashes on -mkv and .mp4 but they are the only ones i have tested. Have a Nvidia GPU and am currently updating to the windows 10 version to see if that changes anything.

Edit: Just some more information. Reinstalled both SVP and MPC-HC but it did not fix the problem. SVP also works with .wmv files for me, but not other files that i have mentioned. Updating the Nvidia driver did not do anything either.
