Pauses in Audio and Video
htnut:
The BIOS tweaks did improve the DPC latency.
But sadly, the dropouts occur just the same.
All of the Ch 4 Glitch Free suggestions were already set properly from my original install.
Attached is the LatencyMon output after the movie ended.
Things I haven’t tried are a virgin W10 install with noting but MC31; and using a different Amp.

Theres still a few things we can try;
Make sure you are running in 'Ultimate Performance Mode':

'Unhide' the following and set them in the Power Plan.
Core Parking - off
Processor idle promote/demote treshold - 100%
Processor performance core parking min cores - 100%
Turn off Core Isolation:

Disable the Dynamic Tick using this CMD:

Let us know how it goes... and post that LatencyMon benchmark! ;)

Hi all,
Sorry I've only found this thread now.
I've reported since that the long video+audio freeze was back, so the Windows update "improvement" was just a coincidence.
I've also tried both older (532.03) and latest drivers, the issue is the same.
I've also recently started using a DP 1.4 to HDMI 2.1 adapter to resolve the black screen issue in 4K24 10/12 bits with recent drivers when using an HDMI 2.0 input on an AVR with a HDMI 2.1 GPU (3090 in my case) and the long freeze/drop is still there.
I always disable widgets, so not the cause.
I'll try to go through a few of the tips in this thread and I'll report back if anything helps.
I should stress that as far as I'm concerned (and unlike @HTNUT) I have similar issues with MPC-BE, so it's likely a system/driver issue rather than a JRiver issue per se.

Most excellent, I had no idea there were so many "hidden" power options. I implemented all of your tips except "Core Isolation", my system says this feature isn't implemented.
Sadly, I still encounter the same dropouts. Attached is the new LatencyMon screenshot shortly after the dropout.
SimplySound:
Well, your latency is looking better, but that doesn't appear to be the issue.
I think Manni may have it right that it could be a driver issue. What are you using for your Video processing? Is it integrated or a dedicated GPU? If you are using NVidia, have you tried working with the video driver?
I have used NVSlimmer to slim down my video driver, but again, I use Kodi and I use WASAPI as my HDMI interface protocol. So what you are experiencing is not something I've seen.
