artifacts in all x264 videos ending in .mkv

[tolkien]

for some reason now i get artifacts every 2-3 seconds and i think it happened when i installed and uninstalled coreavc, im using media player classic for playback

Do you use internal routine of MPC for MKV or do you still have Haali Matroska splitter installed/enabled (is part of CoreAVC installer, but available as standalone installer too)?
What decoder do you use now after deinstalled CoreAVC? FFdshow?

I don't know your answers will be yet, so i would generally suggest to install latest version of "ffdshow tryouts" and of "haali media splitter" while using default settings of them...
and disable internal filter support of mkv in MPC and set Haali's Video Renderer in Playback Output of MPC.

i decode with ffdshow which worked fine before but now has artifacts

i installed coreavc again with haali media splitter and set the haali media splitter in the output and the artifacts are still there

Did you check the deblocking is "Standard" in coreavc and that the input and output leves are set to PC??

[tolkien]

i still get artifacts with those settings

post the settings you used to encode the file
post an image of the graphedit filter chain used for decoding
post a screenshot showing the artifact.

[tolkien]

theyre not files ive encoded just ones ive downloaded

how do i make a screenshot or make a filter of graphedit chain?
