Video playback issue on High Sierra
cktse:
FYI I am getting exactly the same frozen -> login screen symptom on Sierra 10.12.6, *not* High Sierra, using NVIDIA Web Driver (most up-to-date version available for Sierra).
I can reliably reproduce the symptom as follows:
- Switch to full-screen Theater View
- Select Audio
- I am shown the screen full of album covers (I got only <300 albums as I am still testing JRiver, so this is not even that much of a stress test) At this point, the system is still responsive.
- Start to quickly scroll down the album covers... after a page or two worth of very smooth animated scrolls, it freezes.
- Eventually (maybe say 5 mins) it bumps me back to the OSX login screen.

Hi I just upgraded to High Sierra tonight and have exactly the same problem as brown bear. I have the same MacBook Pro model with the same Nvidia graphics card and it freezes and then resets . Also, thanks brown bear, the work around, er, works. Set to integrated card and all is fine, switching or discrete and it locks up.
Anyone know if an updated driver will be produced or any way to upgrade it?
Issue applies to jriver22 and 23 and all was working fine before the upgrade.
Big cheers to brown bear - thanks buddy, you saved my bacon!!
Hendrik:
The display driver crashing and basically taking your OS with it is not exactly something we have direct influence on. I would recommend to report this to Apple in the meantime.
David593:
Thanks I will. This is a major problem as the discrete graphics chip work around couldn’t be used with an external monitor and I use the computer as my main source for tv and films in the living room. I had to restore the Mac back to Sierra which works fine.
BrownBear:
Glad it worked for you David593.
Was also thinking of restoring my machine back to Sierra, however this can cause issues further down the line with other apps and features requiring High Sierra or the next version.
