K-Lite? Does someone still use it?))
Are you saying if we use SVP 4, K-Lite codec is not required?
MPC-HC 1.7.10
madVR v0.89.19
ReClock 1.8.8.5
SVP 4 Pro 4.0.0.54
Windows 7 Ultimate x64
i7 3770K 4.4Ghz
GTX 980 Ti SC+ (359.06 driver)
16GB RAM
Acer XB271HU monitor (144Hz)
Here are my SVP and other settings:
Processing threads: 9
I just tried my 25fps videos. Also no crash/freeze in windowed or fullscreen mode, no matter how many seeks I did.
Are you using madVR? If you are, then uncheck "enable automatic fullscreen exclusive mode" (madVR settings > rendering > general settings). When I have that enable, I used to crash like almost every time when seeking or going in/out of fullscreen. But ever since I disable it, seeking and going in/out of full screen is super fast and doesn't crash. I just tried seeking forward and backward repeatedly for 20 times with my 23.976, 25, 29.97, and 50fps videos and none crash.
Also you technically don't need a setting for 24fps or even 48fps because your Default/Other refreshrate is already set to 144Hz
Gotcha.
If you want to turn a 23.976fps video into 24.000fps, you need to use "ReClock" (I myself do not use it, so I cannot help you). However, since you're not using Intel graphics (which can't make fractional refresh rates), it'd be better and possibly easier to just make a custom resolution with a refreshrate of 119.88Hz or similar if you want things to be exact exact.
I don't need to be exact exact and don't wanna deal with fractional refresh rates. So I'll leave it as is, since it still plays very smooth with 71.91fps or 119.88fps.
Yeah, this is a known issue in SVP...
Luckily the fix is simple - manually increase the amount of threads in SVP (Application settings -> Additional options -> Processing threads) until it is as smooth as possible (SVP's performance graph is quite useful for determining this).
I set it from Auto to 9 threads, and the lag goes away (super smooth now). And it's still using ~30% CPU usage like Auto. What a weird "bug."
Try using a slightly wider range like 59.00fps to 61.000fps; or go big with something like 55.001fps to 64.999fps.
MPC-HC changes the display mode to 120Hz for 60fps videos now.
Thank you so much for all the help!
Ok, I think I understand what you're saying. Here's what I set in MPC-HC: 
I also made 3 SVP profiles:
1) 23.976 and 24fps x3
2) 25 and 29.97fps x4
3) 50 and 60fps x2
Now the problems:
1) 23.976 doesn't change to 24 when I play it (in MPC fullscreen) and SVP reports it's playing at 71.91fps.
2) 29.97 doesn't change to 30 when I play it (in MPC fullscreen) and SVP reports it's playing at 119.88fps. Videos also lag too (not smooth at all) even though CPU usage is only ~30%.
3) MPC-HC didn't change the 60fps video display mode to 120Hz (like I set in the pic above).
Beside those, all other frame rate videos play fine and as expected (in terms of display mode autochanges and fps as set in the SVP profiles).
Any help on the problems describe above would be appreciated. If not, I'll figure out some workarounds.
Wow I didn't know that. Like this? http://i.imgur.com/klVabER.jpg
However, if you use black frame insertion or backlight strobing, you should always have your refresh rate and interpolated framerate match eachother; failing to do this will give a double/triple-image "ghosting-like" motion artifact.
I'm not sure I change those. I don't want any fancy settings done to the black bar. I just want a smooth video with minimal to no artifacts. The black bar can be left unchanged. Can you check these pics and tell me what settings I should use? http://imgur.com/a/korvB
Sorry, I'm pretty noob at this.
I do use MPC-HC and MadVR and ReClock, but I don't think I mess with any automatic resolution changer.
The videos that I watch are usually 23.976fps or 50fps source (I didn't change anything). For 23.976fps videos, I use an x3 profile in SVP4 (tray icon shows 71.928fps when played). And for 50fps, I use an x2 profile (tray icon shows 100fps when played). Both use all same settings, except for that. Anything wrong or out of the ordinary?
Haha ok that means no for me, since I only use x2/x3 conversion. 
I keep monitor at 144Hz for smooth desktop and games.
Thanks, it shows 100fps on the tray icon now!
Are there any side-effects when changing that value?
Hi,
My 720/1080p videos with 23/25fps source works fine with SVP4 Pro using x3 conversion (I can see it says 71.x fps when I hover over the SVP tray icon). But when I play my 720/1080p videos which are 50fps source and using x2 (or x3) conversion, it just shows 50 fps on the SVP tray icon (even though it said "SVC enabled" in the video overlay). Shouldn't it shows 100 fps if I use x2 conversion?
(GPU acceleration is ON.)
My PC spec:
i7 3770k 4.4Ghz
GTX 980 Ti
Acer XB271HU (144Hz)
These settings bring SVP 4's video quality close (about 75%) to SVP 3.1.7's video quality. Mind the difference in the settings "Motion Vector's Grid" and "Artifacts masking". And although it is close, haloing is still very unacceptable on SVP 4 in certain scenes, where the haloing effect is so extreme, that changing settings barely makes a difference. The effect persists 10/10 times on fast motion scenes.
I did try a vast number of changes in SVP 4's settings, I actually tried almost all relevant combinations and SVP 4.0 cannot retain an acceptable video, in terms of haloing, without resulting to much less smooth video. In reality, going for the lowest smoothing options; 2m , 32 px. Large 0, grid step disabled, still produces minor haloing.
Just wanted to say thanks for these SVP 4 settings (with two changes: 2m interpolation and x2/x3 instead of fixed 60fps) . It's A LOT smoother and less artifacts for me than the semi-default settings that I was using (for SVP4 Pro). I didn't use 3.x so I couldn't comment on the issue. But I trust your words and hope they will fix/improve SVP 4 or else it would be a waste of my money to get an "inferior" product when the old, free version is better.
