Topic: VLC lag spike every 1-2 seconds

Hello everyone!

I was hoping someone could help me, as I'm having a problem playing 4K HDR via VLC using SVP.

Playing 4K HDR in itself is possible and "works" fine, yes can't do more than 72FPS because it's VLC but I'm fine with that, problem is I get a lag spike every 1-2 seconds, probably every 1 second.
It's not a huge continuing spikes, just a single "chop"/spike, then smooth again - 1-2 sec later, "chop"/spike.

It's really annoying and I'd love to get this fixed, so I was hoping some of you guys can help me figure out what causes it.

I can run everything else fine via MPC-HC wiht 100FPS (have a 100Hz monitor) but with 4K HDR the colors and contrast are broken - with VLC colors and contrast are beautiful.

My specs: i7-8700K, GTX 1080Ti, 16GB 3200MHz

Good weekend to all, and thanks to for SVP team for such an awesome software. 25$ is a steal for what you get IMO <3

dlr5668, thank you so much!

4K HDR@100FPS works perfectly with MPV.
