edited out.

(was a post suggesting turning off Hardware acceleration was helpful... But now I have a different GPU and I use hardware accel.)

maid:
Thanks mojave
I have been looking for theses forever.
Now that I have used your settings no more twitchy movies cheers

This thread hits so close with my problem that I might as well post my question here.

I get dropped frames during 1080p (scaled to 4k) playback with JRiver on Red October HQ. I have quite a powerful machine running it with AMD FX6300 + 1050Ti gpu + 16gb RAM with Win10 and latest updates. It's connected to LG 55" 4k OLED with high quality HDMi cable. It drops frames like every 1-2 minutes and you can naturally clearly see it during playback. I get no dropped frames even with higher quality settings while using MPC-HC + MadVR as a player. I think I've tried with every single option and configuration on JRiver + MadVR and no matter what, I always get dropped frames. I followed my cpu usage during playback and while I get the framedrop, the cpu usage spikes little every time (Media Center 23.exe does this). Overall the cpu usage stays around 8-15% so it's still very low, but always a small spike while framedrop. This spiking does not happen with MPC-HC. What's also weird is that with Red October Standard I get much worse performance. The video stutters A LOT, totally unwatchable. I have to use the ROHQ setting with MadVR.

Now I've tried with all the settings suggested in this thread and tweaked JRiver and MadVR for days and I haven't found a combination which makes it work smoothly. I've read through the MadVR tutorials and JRiver tutorials but no help. I have this idea that it could be something Audio related since what else is there different between JRiver and MPC-HC? Both use MadVR for video with same settings. JRiver's hardware acceleration and VideoClock don't help either. Also no help to turn on the automatic display mode switching. I would love to keep on using JRiver since the audio sounds much better on it compared to MPC-HC. Must be the JRSS mixing?

I've tweaked the audio settings also in every possible way but no. I've re-installed Nvidia drivers but no help. I've re-installed JRiver as 32bit and 64bit but no difference there either. I'm running out of options. Any ideas? Regular audio playback works without drops or stuttering.

JimH:
The CPU spike could be related to antivirus.

I use Windows 10's integrated virus protection. Also it causes no problems with MPC-HC.

EDIT:

I seem to get pretty much drop free playback with automatic display mode switching + videoclock both on. But 24hz picture just doesn't seem right to my eyes. Would definitely prefer to keep TV at 60hz.
