Topic: Error Log - Memory leak in video player

I've gotten this error message stating a memory leak in the video player a couple of times recently. Here is the error log. Other than that everything else seems fine.

ffdshow.ax/avisynth.dll: 1.3.4500.0/2.6.0.3

You have avisynth 2.6 Alpha.
SVP works good with special avisynth 2.5.8 "SVP edition". There are some memory enhancements there.

Just reinstall SVP Full with avisynth option enabled. Or you can install avisynth 2.5.8 original separately. SVP Manager will update it to special "SVP edition" version when its will be opened.

OK. Thanks! I see that the avisynth changed when I was trying out the conversion to 60fps from the wiki.

Re: Error Log - Memory leak in video player

Hi!

According to this error log, what the problem could be?

Symptoms:
- When playing 1080p videos (doesn't matter which), after around 15-30 minutes video freezes for a second, then continues (the script restarts). So I know, that there's a memory leak... And the message window is there in the background stating, that script has been restarted.
- When I start playing videos, the first 10 second is very low framerate, then something happens and video plays smooth afterwards.

I've no different player, other than included in SVP 3.1.4.

The player is MPC-HC version 1.6.5.6366 (744df1c).

Strange that in previous SVP versions, it won't use together the LAV and madVR. But now, it uses both. The issues comes out for every 1080p videos, but not comes out when playing 720p videos.

Solution (not final, but working for your, I think):
- SVP menu - Information - Hidden settings
- change there ReloadAVSFactor value to 0.8 or to 0
- close and exit notepad
- exit and reopen SVP

Try it please.

Seems to be that this setting fixed it.

Regarding my other problem (skippy playback for 10 seconds when starting video) - I've read about problems on another topic with # of threads set to auto. I have core i7-960 with 8 logical cores, so according to suggestions read on that topic, I've modified the # of threads to 16. Now, the skippy playback less skippy and ends faster, also the video feels "more smooth". I've not modified any other settings.
