I'd look at your LAV Video settings, maybe nVidia CUVID decoder doesn't work for 4k and/or HEVC? (MP is crashing when it tries to connect the video pins in the graph).

hm - but it won't play smoothly - ...

When I play the same file via VLC its fine (same source, same network)

Maybe because the audio codec and renderer - which usually play a critical role in the clocking/timing for playback - seem to be removed:

Ok- I do bitstream everything as teh TV does understand it and i go from optical out of the TV to teh 5.1 System - so I don't need to switch anything in MP.

Are you 100% sure your TV can convert from 7.1 channel TrueHD (ie. the file audio format) to 5.1 channel DD/AC3 or 2 channel PCM (ie. the formats supported by S/PDIF)?

Hm - you and your questions - well it does understadn a lot of formats

I know - so annoying!

well it does understadn a lot of formats

I don't see Dolby TrueHD in that list though. Do you?

 

[pur_berger]

no - I have removed it now from the setup) - but what impact does it have on a video which has DTS HD?
