Well, it was playing much smoother but after 20seconds stopped working.  I'm going to reboot and try again

Can you provide a link to the exact make and model of your laptop?

I replaced both my hard drive and optical disk with an SSD.

Ok, chuck this in your mpv.conf, and give it a whirl

hwdec=auto
vo=gpu
scale=oversample
tscale=oversample

Nope, same problem.  Stops working and closes.

Well, it seemed ok for the 5 seconds it played before it stopped working

So the mpv folder in roaming was empty.  I copied the conf file into the root of the mpv folder.  Is that right?

Yup! Set your audio to stereo, and give it a shot.

If I load Emby it connects to my server so I can't play the file from my local disk

From Emby it plays without crashing but it's choppy

That's fine, the issue doesn't appear to be related to that

OK, in your video settings, select 'Enable video display syncing' , 'Enable Interpolation' , 'Temporal Axis scaling method = oversample' and your audio set to stereo

 

and HWA to auto

Ok, did all that but still plays choppy. Keep in mind I'm playing the file from my laptop wirelessly.

 

I'm going to have to all it a night.  Gotta get up early for work.

 

I appreciate the effort.  If you need more testing I can do so tomorrow as well.

I'm willing if you are :)

Ok, next you can try this. Clear out your mpv.conf, except the logging. Then add this. 

hwdec=auto
video-sync=display-resample
interpolation=yes
tscale=oversample
display-sync-active

In Theater, in the audio settings deselect all audio passthrough. Set HWA to auto, and all other video settings to default/auto, and play your file.

 

You can also try it in the standalone.

Using the standalone of ET or the installed version it still plays choppy.  

 

MPV alone, just crashes after a few seconds.

Remove that from the mpv.conf for theater, and enable opengl hq in the settings, and try again.

Luke, it might be a good idea to add this in the stats. It will show up as DS to show that display sync is actually being used.

 

display-sync-active

Remove that from the mpv.conf for theater, and enable opengl hq in the settings, and try again.

You mean from the mpv.conf in c:\users\me\appdata\roaming\mpv?

 

I"m getting confused to which Emby I should be running, the installed version or the standalone version?

Guest asrequested

Sorry, yes, that one. That's the one theater will use. The other one is specifically for the standalone.

Ok removed all settings from that mpv.conf file and tried again...exact same, very choppy

And you enabled opengl hq?
