Issue:

I am new to SVP and testing it out on a trial basis to see if it will benefit my needs.  As you can tell there are some blurry artifacts that appears around the characters.  Is there anyway to alleviate this based on my config and current settings?  I believe my topic may be similar to https://www.svp-team.com/forum/viewtopic.php?id=5312 where dev Chainik states: "If motion interpolation artifacts are "unacceptable" and "unwatchable" for you - then it's not for you.".  So maybe it is just not for me, however I believe I may be missing something and any guidance is much appreciated.

Re: Blurry Artifacts

You can't get rid of artifacts but you can make them less visible. I'm using svp over 2 years now. What i can say to you is go for max smoothness eventhough you will notice artifacts because no matter what you do adding newer frames will produce artifacts. Here are my max smoothness settings you can give it a try if you like:
Don't use to screen. Instead use x2,x3 etc.
Uniform
Standard
Disabled
Half Pixel
16px(Anime)24px(Movies)
By two with global refinement
Small and Fast
Strongest
Large
Repeat Frame

Re: Blurry Artifacts

Hi,
Sorry for offtopic but could you refere to this topic: https://www.svp-team.com/forum/viewtopic.php?id=6081, because of the hardware that you have. Is your 3900x able to handle these settings what Blackfyre asked for?

I think this hardware would be fine with any kind of setting up to 60hz. If you go above that hz it won't work. You'll probably need better gpu and cpu.

Re: Blurry Artifacts

I am curious about that too actually.

Re: Blurry Artifacts

If your TV/monitor cant do 48/96/120Hz you can make x2 and use mpv's "reclock" for few% to get perfect 50Hz. We need to do ELI5 guide

Setings dont matter much for x2. 60 for 24 base sucks ass imo

Can i watch movies on a 60hz display with x2 settings using;
video-sync=display-resample
video-sync-max-video-change=5
or do i have to make some other changes. If yes i wan't to ask if this reclock settings work with x3,x4 etc. on 144hz ?

Re: Blurry Artifacts

You can but speeding up 48 fps to 60 hz (+25%) wont look good
