I'm having some serious reliability issues with DSPlayer, it seems I can't reliably get it to playback 3D MVC content or HDR content. It seems like KODI isn't reseting OS system states which would also explain issues of it not always returning/reseting back to 2160p at 60Hz when playback is complete. Can anyone who is having success share their settings, I've been trying to diagnose these problems for months now and am starting to get desperate. nVidia Driver: 385.69, OS Version: 10.0.16299

 I switched form my current AMD RX 550 which I was tearing my hair out with to see if the NVIDIA GTX 1050 was any better. This doesnt require FSE for MVC playback so it should be rock stable at the moment. Soon as I got it in it played fine, every time no issues. However HDR was a mess, it  either didnt work or destroyed the image or crashed my PC on stopping, this was just with DIRECT3D enabled, not FSE.

Then 3D just stopped working, I went through NVIDIAS setup again and it turned on and off but wouldnt trigger from MADVR no matter what I did it. Spent ages reinstalling everything, no joy. Then I noticed I was getting dropped frames so I tried to dial in a custom res, that wouldnt save either, spent hours faffing with it, best I got was a frame drop every 9 mins with Reclock, not acceptable to me when its hours pr sometimes days before a frame drop on me RX550.\

All problems for me stem for windows 10 anniversary update, it started getting unstable then but Creators fall did the most damage, its trashed FSE.

So I went back to the RX550 again and I think i've found a workaround for 3D MVC with my card. It plays fine 100% of the time but my PC would crash totally when I stopped the movie. What I noticed was that if I put my desktop in 1080p mode first and then play the movies it stops fine with both KODI DS and MPC, the problem with windows 10 and FSE seems to be the changing of resolutions when stopping and playing some movies.

I've now setup two different KODI DS start shortcuts on my remote, one just starts it normally for all 2D/4K/HDR stuff, the other drops my desktop into 1080p, waits 2 seconds and then starts KODI DS.

Not ideal, need to wait a few days to see how stable it is, i've thought i've got it stable a few times with other settings only to start getting hangs again, i've had to reboot my server about 50 times in the last 7 days and i've lost to hard drives and a NIC to constant power cycles.
