Indeed this is not happening anymore with 4.0.0.72. Great work, thank you very much!

So whats the reason it hangs in the first place?
If I would use double the monitor refresh rate for SVP or similar I'd understand since it has to check the refresh rate and adjust the FPS for the new monitor, but I'm using fixed 60FPS.

Sometimes quite often, if I do a lot of multi-tasking.

When I drag a video to another monitor, SVP seems to reinitialize or drop some frames (at least the green overlay shows up saying 'SVP: Playing at 60FPS') and the video (audio is fine) will hang for a few milliseconds.

Is there any way to fix this? Without SVP this doesn't happen.
