Topic: [Solved] How can I use Reclock to speed up only 24/48fps to 25/50fps?

Note the related thread on achieving the same thing but with mpv here:
http://www.svp-team.com/forum/viewtopic.php?id=3439



As I mentioned in the above mpv-related thread, I've got a TV that can't properly handle 48Hz nor 72Hz (it accepts them, but does frame-skipping/repeating), but can properly handle 50Hz and 60Hz perfectly fine (as well as 24Hz, but pfft to that tongue).


So I want to try using Reclock to turn any and all 23.976/47.952fps and 24.00/48.00fps videos into 25.00/50.00fps videos (possibly with pitch correction, but I'd like to compare with and without it myself and see which one I like better).

But I'm a compete newbie a configuring Reclock and the closest I was able to get was speeding up/slowing down everything so that it may play at 25fps...which is no good since I watch a lot of 30fps content from YouTube as well, and I want those to stay at their original 30fps.


Could anyone lend a hand here?




Even if I eventually go the mpv route in the end, I would like to be able to compare the two methods and see which one I prefer.

You can use ReClock with MPC-HC and refreshrate autoselection. Select 50 Hz for 23, 24 and 25 fps video. 60 Hz for 30 fps video.
And if you read readme file from ReClock bundle it will become clearer.

I had planned to try this out more today, but now I can not even get Reclock to activate (see attached screenshot).

And yes I tried to uninstall then re-install Reclock along with trying its built in reset and clean-up functions.



EDIT: Geez, now I'm having issues where madVR causes a similar weird flickering on first run, but on any successive runs it's fine...maybe I really should look into the mpv route, but I'm worried that dxva2 copy-back decoding will be slower.

EDIT 2: Figured out the madVR issue - I just needed to have madVR disable desktop composition hen n fullscreen.  Now to figure out what the crap is up with Reclock...

Apologies for the double-post, but I figured out Reclock.  I uninstalled it like normal but then tried to install it manually via the installer that you find on the internet rather than through the SVP manager and that worked.

However, that alone did not make it do what I wanted - I had to change the percentage for maximum speedup to at least 5%.  Once I did that, 24fps videos were turned into 25fps accordingly.


...but there is still some bad news - I cannot seem to get madVR to treat 24fps videos as 25fps, so it keeps changing my screen refresh rate to 60Hz rather than 50Hz.

I realize that I could avoid this issue by using the automatic resolution changer in MPC-HC, but that one does not have the ability to automatically change my display resolution to 1280x720 & 640x480 for 720p & 480p videos and still use 1920x1080 for everything else.


EDIT: Hmm, it seems that DXVA2 upscaling on this NVS 3100m is high quality enough that it may just suffice for upscaling 720p content to 1080p (480p is less of an issue because a lot of it is not exactly 640x480 but rather slightly less, so madVR would not automatically switch anyway).
