Topic: Problem with Svp4linux / choppy playback

Hello ,

i have installed the Svp4Linux according to the older instructions for Version .180

http://web.archive.org/web/201908081547 … /SVP:Linux


the problem is here that the playback is very choppy (for svptube i chose "stable-only mp4"" as the graphics card rx560 does not have proper VP9 support)
and the fps rate is somehow off-limit?


please someone take a look at the screenshot:

Thank you!

Re: Problem with Svp4linux / choppy playback

this happens when i move the window with mpv/playback from the monitor 1280x1024 to the adjacent monitor with happens to have higher resolution 1680x1050

Thanks

Re: Problem with Svp4linux / choppy playback

playback would start normally with 60ftps on one window,

problems would start appear as soon the window is moved to another monitor

Re: Problem with Svp4linux / choppy playback

For some reason detected framerate 25 fps is changed to crazy value 4789 fps. Smoothing become disabled in this case and use smooth ratio 1x =  no inserting interpolated frames.

Normal fps value:

22:07:23.029 [i]: Media: video 1280x720 [PAR 1.000] at 25.000 fps [constant] (via video player)
...
22:09:10.306 [i]: Playback [c29da30c]: playing at 60 [25 *12/5]

Crazy FPS value:

22:09:22.119 [i]: Playback [c29da30c]: source frame rate changed to 4789.27
...
22:09:22.130 [i]: Playback [c29da30c]: playing at 4789.27 [4789.27 *1/1]

Try:
- another video file;
- disable automatic black bars detection in SVP. Looks like framerate is changing after frame size change. SVP menu - Video frame - Detect and cut off black bars;
- change your multi-monitor configuration into one-monitor configuration by disabling or detaching another screens.

Re: Problem with Svp4linux / choppy playback

Three vapoursynth filters on your screenshot are not looking good hmm
I'd say it failed to remove previous filter before adding new one but it still must work the "old way" despite of the the mpv's warning about 'Option vf-del: -del is deprecated! Use -remove (removes by content instead of by index).'
Are you using git version?

Re: Problem with Svp4linux / choppy playback

hello ,

thanks for your help!

i am new here so i don't know how to handle the program well -
but for debian/devuan i had to use older instructions as from your webpage until recently.

so i installed according to instructions, but probably made an error, and used it with version .180.
then i autoupdated to .183 or so with the update manager but then it would no longer parse the links as libpython3.8 is missing on devuan3.0 i think.
so i uninstalled all components and reinstalled from ./svp-linux-64.run (version.180)
and the program works fine but only if i leave the window on the monitor on which it opens;
if i drag to another monitor , then after some seconds it would readjust and slow down.

- i tried to disable 1 monitor > the same thing happens also with only 2 monitors active.
- tried another video file / stream > same outcome
- tried on another computer (that runs ubuntu20.04) that has also AMD , but internal Radeon R7 Graphics  (APU) - with version .183 on this computer there is not shown this strange behaviour (albeit tested only on setup with 2 monitors, not three).


so i would say that either i did not install correctly, or the (non-proprietary) open-source drivers from debian/devuan cannot play very well with this earlier version of svp4linux/svptube, or maybe it is an issue with the driver configuration on the computer (which i am currently investigating>asking for help).

one thing is also that i installed previously the whole program on devuan 2.0 (based on debian stretch) and then updated to devuan 3.0 (based on debian buster) , but this should not be an issue.
on devuan 2.0 however i had to resort to install "cython3" via pip, and now on devuan 3.0 i additionally installed "cython3" package, but that should not be an issue?

Re: Problem with Svp4linux / choppy playback

well, i checked now with other stream again, and problem would no occuer this time.

so i will have to do more investigation, maybe there are some filetypes not good handled/supported by the videocard or setup?

in mediainfo the above video would say:

MPEG-4
1280*720 at 23.976 FTS, AVC (Main@L3.1) (CABAC / 3 Ref Frames)
ISO Media File produced by Google Inc. etc.etc.

In Preferences i ruled out "VP9" as the graphics card 2016 (Polaris) is probably not new enough to handle it well if at all.

Re: Problem with Svp4linux / choppy playback

can confirm that this issue is stil present even after updating to latest version .183 via svp maintenance tool,
at least when playing back this specific file, on this specific computer with linux devuan.

Re: Problem with Svp4linux / choppy playback

ihave tried on a fresh installation of ubuntu linux 20.04 with triple monitor setup and can confirm that this issue is occuring also there

here is some log maybe it can be useful for ruther development?

Re: Problem with Svp4linux / choppy playback

Hello ,

i have updated to your latest .191 version,

and the problem is still persisting.

with 2 monitors 19inch attached , both 1280x1024 resolution, one æ75hertz, other æ60hertz,

the following occurs:


when starting video via svptube on monitor 1 (75hz) the video plays normally and gets upscaled to 75fps i presume.
svp4linux shows around 20% cpu;
when the mpv window is moved to monitor 2 (60hz) the video gets downscaled to 60fps i presume, and after short seconds the playback is choppy and cpu spikes up to around 85% and playback continues very choppy.
this happens with vp9 or av1 codec and also others i assume.

Re: Problem with Svp4linux / choppy playback

unfortunately i cannot install the AMD proprietary driver as they are not available for Ubuntu 20.04 yet.
am a bit wondering why this happens as several people have said that opensource should be better performing than the proprietary drivers but certainly there is here a issue with driver or on the software side vaporsynth - mpv - or svp4linux.
Thank you very much.
