Topic: Video resetting repeatedly for first 5 sec

Lately I'm having issues where some videos keep resetting playback repeatedly during the first 5 seconds of playback. I'm not sure what is causing this. But when I look in the log, the "Frame Crop Detected" part looks scary! That seems to be the part related to when it keeps resetting.

Anyone else having this issue?

Re: Video resetting repeatedly for first 5 sec

If i disable auto-crop, everything seems to be back to normal.

Did you make changes to auto-crop in v3.1.7?

Re: Video resetting repeatedly for first 5 sec

Hi there Mystery,

You can try to disable the "Auto crop black bars" feature under the "Frame crop" menu option. Also select "Disabled" in the same submenu and see if those two settings makes a difference. Also check your logs and please report back if that "worked around" the issue.

For what its worth, my crash logs also contain those "Frame # crop detected" parts, while I seem to achieve stable playback in around 1-2 seconds. I'm just speculating here, but it might be that your video has some constantly changeing border cropping that SVP is trying to make sense of?

Re: Video resetting repeatedly for first 5 sec

Ah right, you figured it out while I was typing  big_smile
Have you tried playing back the same file with a clean reinstall of 3.1.6?

-Ps. Is there some way to merge double posts?
