I just randomly decided to try using NVidia Optical Flow again today and noticed very heavy judder, as if the video was not being interpolated. The current settings are as follows:

Setting the Motion Vector Grid to anything higher than 4px results in correct smoothness.

I'm not sure about having that option disabled by default, but if your videos tend to use a single profile, you can set the commonly auto-loaded profile to disable "Do frame rate conversion" (which kills all interpolation) that you can toggle to the normal settings that profile has.

It will remember your last setting for that profile every time the video loads.

Yep. Just updated without a hitch.

Also, I tried TensorRT on MPV and it works great, but just wanna check if it really performs like a dog on MPC-HC?

EDIT: Or is that just because I'm filtered up to my neck with MadVR and stuff that's heavy on the GPU?

Hi,

I recently tried to uninstall and reinstall the software to test TensorRT, but the latest update won't complete because of the ff. error:

I attempted to retry multiple times but it just keeps erroring on the same part.

Confirming a bug where the new RIFE AI in SVP as of the latest update seems to have removed color when playing back any video. Color is restored if I switch to SVP's standard method.

Tried with both 8-bit and 10-bit videos.

I'm no expert, but here are my settings:

Lowering the Motion Vectors Grid helps a lot, 24px/Large2 seems right. Make sure not to use Optical Flow since it will really produce wavy artifacts.

Personally I find that some anime interpolate better than others (mainly ones that have good animation in the first place), and that better quality sources will do it less. I've tried with VHQ versions of movie-grade anime like Your Name, Weathering With You, Gundam Unicorn, and Ninja Scroll and have gotten spectacular results with minimal to no artifacts using these settings. Other well-animated, non-movie anime like Attack on Titan and Unlimited Blade Works TV are also great with it.

Just updated to the latest Avisynth Filter through the Maintenance Tool and Audio/Sub track selection no longer produces the strange error message with MPC-HC.

So my motherboard died a couple of days ago, and thus I bought the big 3 parts (CPU + MB + RAM) for replacement. I went from an Intel Core i5 4670k to an AMD Ryzen 5 3600.

I noticed some changes to SVP afterwards:

- When open a video file in MPC-HC, there's somewhat of a long stutter at the start (~2s), akin to the older SVP 3.1 startup, which wasn't present when I first tried SVP 4. There's naturally a startup, but not a long one (~0.5s).
- I was checking performance using SVP's performance monitor when I noticed that the CPU clock speed now reads 0.0ghz, whereas it was working with my old system, even tracking the power-saving downclocking.

Attached is a screenshot  of the Performance Monitor while SVP was in use.

Also, this may not be relevant, but after my system change, SVP updated some components; I think it was Vapoursynth.

EDIT:
The high initial stutter/latency only happens to some videos, so I think that should be okay.

Yes, I realize that. It'll be slightly more expensive, though. Just slightly disappointed the model changed exactly when I finally decided to get the license.

I was prepared to buy the 24.99/2 license today but it turned out to have changed to single license now. That's why I asked, mainly, since the intent was to buy for 2 PCs.

Is the price change to 19.99/single license a permanent change?

Yeah, I probably will. Will there be an issue if I keep both 3.1.7a and 4 Pro installed at the same time (with the other one switched off, of course)?

I have lots of custom profiles already, so I don't want to have to remove them right now if I don't have to.

Hi,

I'm currently still on SVP 3.1.7a, and still experiencing the Win10 GPU Acceleration lockup when using LAV Video's NVIDIA CUVID + SVP OpenCL acceleration. Disabling OpenCL acceleration or using any DXVA2 decode eliminates this problem.

I just recently bought a 2060 Super and am planning to purchase SVP4 Pro to use Optical Flow, but have a question:

Will using CUVID + OpenCL still lock up MPC-HC if I enable both as of the latest build? Or do I even still need OpenCL acceleration if I use Optical Flow? I hear OF creates a different kind of visual artifact, so I'd like to know if the CUVID + OpenCL path is still viable.
