Hello together. An Information from me: PowerDVD 19 with or without newest Patch brings Stuttering, if you install newest GeForce Hotfix Driver 431.18. Playback of BDMV or Bluray Discs with H. 264 60p stutters every 30 to 60 sec. VGA is GTX1060.

If anyone had this issue, too, go back to previous geforce driver like 430.97 Hotfix.

Edit: Testing longer With 430.97, and there are the same issues...

It mainly occurs with 1080 60p BDMV and BD discs.

I'm not sure how serious the video stuttering you saw when started the playback.

60p BDMV? Is it a AVCHD video or some home made BDs?
Most of commercial released BDs are encoded in 24p or 30p.
Try different BD video authoring software to produce the BDMV content and check the playback.

Perhaps, the stuttering cause is not on player side but contents that are generated from similar sources.

The created home videos are BDMV discs. They were all created with Power Director 16 + 17 as BD discs and BDMV folders, in 1080 60p.

The source material is AVCHD from a Sony camera, filmed in 1080 60p. Each of my players (hardware and software) plays the movies properly, as well as PowerDVD 17 + 18.

But PowerDVD 19 just not, there jerky and stuttering every 30 seconds. And then it continues smoothly. Until the next stutter.

It makes no difference whether the GPU hardware video encoding is enabled or not. It does not matter if you use the Home Theater settings or not.
There was no problem at all to play the films. Until I switched to PowerDVD 19 now.

Since MPC-HC, MPC-BE, VLC Media Player, PowerDVD17 + 18 play the movies properly, it can only be on PowerDVD 19 for me. Everything else makes no sense.

I just wanted to post my experience here if someone else has same problems. I have enough alternatives.

Files in MP4 format with H.264 also stutter and freeze, the issue I've found is with Windows 10 1903, the video files ran perfectly when I was using Windows 10 1809.

I think now it's Windows 1903,too. VLC Media Player now has same issues. Only MPC BE or MPC HC Media Player that don't use Windows Interface Direct 3D (like different MadVR Codec) didn't had this issue.

All Media Players that use Direct 3D from Windows have now issues. With the integrated Intel GPU same Stuttering.
