PotPlayer - Playing videos cause after image

[dennyg]

I currently have an issue with PotPlayer which I am not sure how to fix.

I have been using SW decoding for a really long time until I noticed an issue with some scenes. Sometimes, there will be an after image, as in the last frame of a sequence is partially faded out, and continues to remain even when a new part of the scene loads in.

This image should be completely black

Now, if I enable HW mode instead. The issue is solved, however, this happens for around 9 seconds before fixing itself

If I fast forward, rewind, or pause, the green lines/glitches return for 9-10 seconds then dissappear. The image is also slightly brighter and softer than SW decoding. Is there any way to stop the weird after image happening with SW decoding?

Check Preferences -> Video -> Colorspace -> YCbCr to RGB color range make sure it's set to Full (RGB: 0-255, PC standard).

Make sure all the Colors Controls (just below the above setting) are set to 50.0%. Make sure you have all filters/shaders/effects turned off.

I figured it out. It was Temporal Noise Reducer/Temporal Denoise that was enabled causing the issue. I must've accidentally enabled it since it can be activated by pressing CTRL+M
