Topic: WIndows 10 Player Freezes and Crashes...

If this happens with NVIDIA video card? This's because of partially broken video drivers. As of now you have three options:
Rollback to any driver version prior to 350.0,
Turn off "CUVID" video decoding option and switch to "DXVA (copy back)" in LAV Video Decoder (if it's turned ON)
Turn off GPU acceleration in SVP (NOT RECOMMENDED!)


The above has been copied and pasted from the FAQ's if the WiKi, has this been solved yet ?

EDIT:
Just checked the NVIDIA site and the oldest driver I can find is 355.60, anyone know where to find 350.00 or older ?

Why not just use DXVA Copy Back?

On my computer, LAV "CUVID" works fine in the 64bit version of PotPlayer with SVP with every recent NVIDIA driver (I just tested this again on my computer with the latest NVIDIA driver). Alternatively, don't use LAV Video Decoder at all. LAV is more efficient but ultimately it doesn't appear necessary.

OK, thanks, but it only provides a link to W8.1, unless that can be used in W10.
