SmoothVideo Project → Using SVP → [FIXED] Problem with hanging
Often the the player getting stuck for several seconds or hanging when used in conjunction with madVR, especially when skipping back. Any idea how to remedy it? Radeon 6570M on a Windows 8.1 (or 8) 64.
edit: Basically an mpc-hc hang happens very regularly when I skip more than once every 1-2 seconds on a big file (e.g. a movie) and SVP is on.
edit: madvr might or might not be related
From madvr's author: "No idea, I'm sorry. Are you sure it's not an issue with SVP?"

Do you see any hanging when SVP is off?
You know what? It may be related to seeking, it probably goes away on very small videos, e.g. a trailer.
..I'll see if it 'hangs' with it off (I was thinking instead of hanging, it may be seeking, then I again I had seen it hang for several minutes, so it's probably a real hang sometimes).

It is too much. Abnormal behavior.
Did you try:
1. to minimize some settings in SVP profile window to lower CPU load?
2. to select in SVP menu: Turn off on seek - Don't turn off?
Hi. This problem persists even on a new computer. And it goes away on mpc-be (a fork)!
It appears to happen on big files (e.g. movies) but not small clips. (cache related?)
I tried a few settings around and it seems to keep it unaffected.
edit: Basically it happens very regularly when I skip back or forward more than once every 1-2 seconds
edit: SVP off of course stops the problem
ah, it does become better with the "turn on and off quickly" option on seek.
Me too have a problem. It is like trying to play 2 different parts of video at once mixing frames from previous and next parts. Right?
I noticed this since last couple weeks. I noticed that this sometimes may proceed even if I disable SVP.
I believe it has something with ffdshow decoder. I tried to lower cached frames there but only when I completely disable ffdshow raw filter I can finally seek ahead and back without hanging. But obviously I have no SVP then:(
AviSynth is the component that is very unstable. SVP comes with AviSynth 2.5.8 MT.
If you installing AviSynth 2.6 MT, 90% of seeking freezes will be gone. However, memory usage will also go up.
It's important to use a MT version of AviSynth.
Yeah, I did experience it too.
What I do is, whether to wait for SVP turned on after seeking or set the "turn off on seek" to higher value and seeking as fast possible before SVP turned on.
I usually seeking using shortcut-key too, (Ctrl+arrow or Shift+arrow).
But nowadays, I can seek it very quickly too without player crashing, (with "turn off by 1 second").
I forgot what setting that I did, or I'm not sure whether it's because I replaced the avisynth.dll with Chainik provided in another thread. Or whether it's because I update the k-lite.

Thanks I'll look into that. I had heard of mt versions before being related..
PS. mpc-be did not fix it after all.

This works great so far! I used the "turn on and off quickly" option in svp to avoid some frames being mixed up when seeking.
I used this avisynth (latest): http://forum.doom9.org/showthread.php?t=148782
PS. It seems it's not about mt support per se, but about the bug fixes. The version I had had mt commands already.

2015.02.20 version is amazing. No hanging/crashing for me too. Memory usage is fine too. 1.95 GB ram for 1080p video.
