MPC-HC with MadVR flashing black screen then crashing GPU driver when entering full

I'm encountering a problem with MPC-HC with MadVR flashing a black screen(then quickly a lighter screen that can just barely be seen) then crashing the GPU driver when entering full screen in videos. It seemed to suddenly start yesterday just before Windows notified me it had an update and wanted me to restart. I made sure my graphic drivers were up-to-date after encountering the problem, but that didn't fix it. The only way I've found to watch videos for the time being is to switch from madVR to EVR custom presenter. Obviously I'd prefer to use madVR instead.

Anyone else encounter this behavior recently? Any tips to troubleshoot or work around the issue? I've tried changing a number of settings in madVR processing, scaling, and rendering, but have yet to find any setting changes I've tried to work.

mpc-hc version 1.7.13
madVR v0.92.14
LAV 0.71.0
XySubFilter
Windows 10.0.17134 build 17134
Nvidia GeForce GTX 680M running driver version 397.64 (Nvidia Control Panel set to use this GPU)
Intel HD Graphics 4000 running driver version 10.18.10.4885

Any help or suggestions are appreciated.

madshi have you ever thought of creating a NLS (Non Linier Stretch) as the Lumagen can do. I have friends who buy a Lumagen just to do this one simple process, it would be great if it was a feature in madvr. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jwF7nYe-YzM

You should know the answer because you asked the same question several times over the last years. I doubt his opinion has changed. Here is a quote to refresh your memory:

I might add NLS in some far away future version, but it's very low priority because I consider NLS to be bad.

I dont want it for me as I use a movable Isco III lens. I have friends who would love madvr to have NLS, which is something I would never use myself, I always display all my ratios 100% true including Scope. Madvr contains a number of settings that it looks like madshi doesnt like that others asked for, which he has labeled "your the boss". However I dont use any of those settings and Im more than happy with everything from madvr for myself, my results are spectacular! My 145" scope, Isco III lens and upscaling everything to 4K I have no need for 4K BD discs, the image with 1080 upscaled through madvr to 4K is truly amazing from my JVC X9900.

I switched my gtx1070 with my rx480 and now I am back on 1070. I now have to problems:

when I use my rx480, everytime the players osd (in this case kodi ds player) shows up, the screen goes black for 2-3 seconds (like I stitching form FSE to windowed mode) but this also happens with windowed mode... anyone knows how to get rid of it?

This annoyed me so I put my gtx1070 bak in the htpc, but now my composition rate shown in the madvr osd ist not 23,976 anymore, it is now shown as 23,980... tried different drivers, but nothing changed it back. Any idea?

Try the CRU (Custom,e Res Utility ) app , it is free to use (google it)

PS Your signature states a GTX 1070 16GB , there are no 16GB versions... :-)

You are right, my fault. Changed it...

I did a restore to the last windows restore point and now it is 23,976 again...

Somewhat related; how can I put the settings back to default? I tried running the "Default Settings" bat with admin but no go. Did it again, Uninstalled, deleted the entire folder and re-installed in a different location/hdd but I am still stuck with my old settings.
Reluctant to mess around in the registry but how to clear settings back to default.

does the movie play fine after the black screen though?, if so this is perfectly normal I would say, mine takes a few seconds to switch modes and for MADVR to get started.

I've just got used to it.

Did you try the HD4000 to determine if it is a driver problem?

No one has a perfect 23.976, so this is not abnormal, but 23.980 is pretty far off. Did you run DDU before exchanging GPUs?

If so, you can create a custom resolution in madVR to improve the timing. All that is important is that you're not dropping or repeating frames with the refresh rate selected. Not that you have a perfect 23.976.

I did, it was so perfect that madVR reported no dropped frames from the beginning and to the end of the movie. Until nvidia messed up the drivers.

that's not his point that you can't fix it you clearly have a chance.

So what is a better setting, using NGU Sharp Medium and quadruple and downscale to 1080p or NGU Sharp High double and finish with Bicubic60 AR to 1080p.
The former uses exponentially more GPU resources while not providing any improvements, I don't know maybe it's the source I am using 704x400 but doing frame comparisons it looks identical beside noise but not in a better reduced noise like the "reduce random noise" setting but in a way that it's the same amount of noise but just the location or pattern is so slightly different, if the shots weren't labeled I would totally lost track of which one corresponds to which.
On what kind of situations Quadruple is better than a higher quality first step.

Have you tried NGU High double and then something like Lanczos or Jinc?

I agree, downscaling to anything over 1.5x is of dubious benefit so I would use 2x NGU high and then jinc > lanczos > cubic.

madVR settings

Hello everybody ,
I'm trying now for a few days to set the madVR so that 1080p & 2160p movies run smoothly.
Unfortunately, I don't get it somehow (either the 4k movies are running well or the BluRays).
... seems to be a high art, to adjust the madVR well!

Does anyone of you use an NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1050 Ti graphic card with a 4k-TV, where the playback of 1080p & 2160p movies runs smoothly?
I would be very happy about his attitude to it - preferably everything with screenshots.
