I had this same problem until I upgraded my hard drive from a Western Digital Green 2TB drive to a WD Black 4TB drive. I think it was due to the 2TB drive shutting down (stopped spinning) when not in use. I don't have that problem with the Black drive.

bhampster:
Thank you both.

I will work through the very detailed info mojave gave... I had already been flipping some of those switches but he presents most of what I was trying to learn very well.

For example... I experimented with Video change mode On and Off and setting responses... I find my PJ automatically sync pretty well.

mojave's post about detailed MadVR settings is appriciated and detailed and I will work through it.

As for the idea of hard drive choice.... that is also something I was interested in looking at. This AM I was playing back a movie from one of my NAS units but I meant to compare that to movies played back from my internal drives because I have 2 of those. (System is on a separate SSD).

Of course... dropping a couple of frames while the video starts and engages exclusive mode is not a problem... I was relieved when I watched a movie while leaving the performance data on that I wasn't dropping more frames after getting into exclusive mode.

So,... thanks again.... I love to learn.

Thanks for bringing this up. I found that the ones dropping frames at the beginning were on an older internal hard drive and the ones not dropping frames are on an external WD 3TB  drive.

bhampster:
worked through a bunch of these tips and they helped.

Mainly I guess because all my dropped and repeated frames came from going in and out of exclusive mode.

Much smoother to stay out of exclusive mode.

I have no idea what super xbr chroma upsampling is but I have no dropped frames with it ... :)
(I have to always use the latest MadVR)

Thanks again for the tips... making a great thing better is a wonderful feeling. :)
