1080p MKV Choppy Playback - Solved! |
| sdbyrd posted 2009 Oct 09 07:58 |
| I've been fighting with several videos that play fine most of the time, but start to get choppy during high-motion sequences. Most notably, Earth (2007 Blu-Ray.) I'm running a dual-core Intel 2.53GHz cpu and an nVidia 9600 video card. For what's seemed like months, I've experimented with VLC versions, Zoom Player, MPC, etc. After exhausting searches, I finally found the solution. MPCHC (Media Player Classic Home Cinema) is the total fix for my problem. Even though MPC lets you send your output to the video card's GPU (using the EVR option for Vista/Windows 7), it was still choking my CPU at 40-70% playing 1080p content. After moving to MPCHC AND using the EVR option, my video not only plays perfectly smooth, but it dropped my CPU level down to around 5-10%, even during the high-motion sequences that bogged my PC down previously. As far as I'm concerned, there should only be one player to use for MKV for now....MPCHC! I hope this helps others that have encountered the same issues I have. For the longest I thought my processing power wasn't enough, but it was all in the right software and configuration. Best of luck! |
