    Yes uninstall and reboot, then just to be certain, run filmerit (link in my sig), that will make sure there are no under lying codec problems.

    Now you can install LAV filters from the MP extension installer found on your desktop, and as you have a Nvidia card set LAV video to use Cuvid.

    Sorry I had to come back to this subject.
    After many hours trying to play the file on MP changing all possible combinations with LAV filters the results were always the same.
    The video plays with a kind of "small jumps".I am almost convinced that this problem is caused by the video file itself but there's also
    something to with MP, I guess.
    The same file plays smoothly with WMP, Kmplayer and MPC-BE, so this means that besides some problem with the file , tha I believe is
    possible , MP is not able to handle properly with this kind of video files.
    Here you have a complete description of medialinfo about this file:
