Topic: Some videos only play @ 30 FPS

Dunno what's up I've never had this issue before. But now most videos play @ 59.9 FPS and a few are stuck @ 60 FPS

The settings are all at default with Target Frame Rate set to screen refresh rate.

I think it has something to do since I installed ReClock but even after removing ReClock the issue is still there.

The video will play @ 60 FPS only if I select in SVP double target Frame rate. But then when I try to play other videos with that setting SVP gives a warning that it is now playing over the monitor refresh rate which is 60 hz. since they would plkay @ 72 FPS so that's not a setting I would like to keep.

I don't know why some videos are stuck @ 30 FPS and others are not.

First I was on MPC-BE 1.7.5 then I tried MPC-BE which never gave me trouble before but same thing.

Filters I am using in order:

madVR (smooth motion disable, tried enabling it, no difference)
ffdshow raw video filter
LAV Decoder / CUVID
LAV Audio
LAV splitter

any ideas?

Re: Some videos only play @ 30 FPS

strange, the videos sometimes play @ 30 FPS and sometimes @ 60 FPS after a reboot and waiting for a while, the issue is random. Same settings always  hmm

Re: Some videos only play @ 30 FPS

when it'll be "sometimes @ 60 FPS after a reboot and waiting for a while" next time check the "additional info" again - what detected screen refresh rate value you'll see?

Re: Some videos only play @ 30 FPS

Chainik
no even after the reboot, 30 mins have passed, it's playing @ 60 FPS this time. this issue is random, but happens ALOT that I need to report it:

Re: Some videos only play @ 30 FPS

I think I found out the problem

In my laptop, I have dual nVIDIA Geforce GTX 770M, so I selected the 2nd one thinking it would be better because let the first one do all the image drawing and OS tasks, and let the 2nd free one do the SVP work. When I changed it back to the first GPU, the speed went back to 59/60 FPS

Very strange I would have thought that using the 2nd GPU which is free would be better.

I wish SVP can make use of SLI configurations like mine where you have to similar GPUs working at the same time to give even better performance
