I've seen something like this ages ago...
You may want to replace avisynth.dll with the one from SVP 3 - 2.5.8 "special SVP edition".
Just place it near the video player's executable...

My player folder already have an avisynth.dll seating there, replace it didn't change anything.
So, i'm doing it the opposite way, delete the avisynth.dll from that folder.
You guess what, the auto thread number generated is still remain 14, but the video is smooth now...

hmmm...
how many threads have you set manually?
and what number do you see in "auto" mode?

here's how to check:
Information -> Additional info -> Last generated script, check the number in "global threads = XXX" line

By "Auto" the generated script global threads=14, but the video is definitely choppy.
I checked the script generated by SVP3 is 15, than apply the same number manually to SVP4.

here is the weird result of manually selecting threads and the threads number actually inside the script:
Auto=14  <choppy
     3=3  <choppy
     5=5  <smooth
     7=7  <smooth
     9=9  <choppy
   11=11  <smooth
   13=13  <smooth
   15=15  <smooth
   17=17  <smooth
   19=19  <choppy
   21=21  <smooth
   23=23  <smooth

I had a similar issue that was solved by increasing the processing threads amount to 7.

not an option here cause Keis has an i7 and trying to watch a 720p video...

Bingo!! Tried to set the processing threads to above 5 manually, problems solved!!

Thank you, Nintendo Maniac 64

So there is a bug in the auto processing threads detection again!

Thanks for that OBS, tried it and quite easy to use

In timeline2, SVP 4 is worked but from what I saw, it's looked like the setting has a strong artifact masking?

OBS is quite nice to use for screen recording at high frame rate, although it is designed for live broadcasting.
I just use it for screen recording, since most of the time log file don't tell any problems but screen shoot really can't help to show what's going on.

Everything is set by the assess system performance option, i don't even touch anything other than turn off the outer light that i don't use.
I've turned on the fluency and tearing test during screen recoding on purposely to show that SVP is working and no problems on screen rendering, but the actual video content is so choppy as you see....

Also, regarding sharp vs adaptive, that was only on low-end hardware.

hmm... plays fine to me
maybe a few jerks noticed on the final vertical panning sometimes and maybe there're more of them in "animation" rather than in "film"

Not fine on my side, i also tested SVP 4 on 2 laptop, same unacceptable result...
that clip is just a quick test, i confirmed that all of the video got worst result from SVP4 than not using it on my machines.

Test clip round 2:

This is a simple scene with no moving background, just a spinning card wheel and the scolling staff list

Compare screen recording:

How bad SVP4 done it, and SVP3 render it so smooth...

I just cut it out for testing, since this anime got alots of vertical and horizontal scene, it's a easy catch to see if SVP is working correctly or not.

Could you give us that "test_clip.mp4"?

I don't know what is the value 1 in your log though.

the values is 1
