There're no GPU devices on your screenshots  hmm

Clean and re-install all the graphics drivers - that's all I can say.

Re: Error preparing smooth playback! SVSmoothFps: unable to init FlowLib

1st - why AMD APP?

2nd - I know nothing about 335.23.
332.21 is known to work w/o issues.

Re: Error preparing smooth playback! SVSmoothFps: unable to init FlowLib

Fixed it!
Opened up AMD Catalyst Install Manager to uninstall the AMD APP but it showed that nothing was installed so I left it alone.
After uninstalling 335.23 and installing 332.21 and reinstalling SVP afterwards, everything worked. I always thought the newer versions would be better (Please excuse my technological ineptitude). Anyways, thanks so much for your help and quick replies. I really appreciate it. smile

TL/DR: 335.23 = bad, 332.21 = good
