I'm so tired of video playback sucking in pc-games. I also play in HDR on a oled tv, and generaly there is so much color banding in pc game cinematics :(

yes. its a known issue. i guess its because the video most likely runs at 60fps but other than the game itself, fps during cutscene movies run uncapped.

Mine wasnt too bad but the stuttering I did have was related to my framerate being totally uncapped during the videos. as soon as I locked everything to 60 there was no stutter anywhere.

The game is locked to 30 and 60 fps, so im not sure why the videos would not be, I'm so tired of these games coming out with super obvious problems. It's almost like they did not lanch the game before they shipped it

I had A LOT of stutter yesterday but today the game is running just fine. Here's a few things you can try:
If you're running an NVIDIA card go to the NVIDIA control pannel>manage3d settings>program settings>add both of the MK12.exe then set energy management mode to perfer max performance,activate low latency mode and set your max FPS to 60. Another thing you can try is going to windows settings>system then on the search bar type graphic settings. On this new screen add both of the MK12.exe then click options and set them both to high performance

Yeah i know you can det custom frame limits etc in the drivers, but I’m not wanting to tinker to get a 100 euro game to work, I expect more for that price

So, I've had to do a couple things. I'm sorry if you have AMD, I'm not familiar with their driver program, but im sure you can find similar settings.

-First, I set my "mk12.exe" to always run as administrator.
(Right click on MK1 in steam and open "local files," browse to "mk12.exe," right click and go into "properties." Under the "compatibility" tab, check the box next to "run program as administrator.")

-I had to go into display settings and lock my monitor to 60fps.
(Right click on your desktop home screen and click "display settings." Click "advanced display settings" and set your "Refresh Rate" to 60Hz.

-Then in NVIDIA's MK12 program settings...
(Program should be called "NVIDIA control panel," once open, you should see two tabs, one titled "Global Settings" and one titled "Program settings." Click "Program settings," it may take a few seconds to load up. Click "Add" and find "mk12.exe." It will be in the folder you found to set as "admin." 'Whatever Drive/SteamLibrary/steamapps/common/Mortal Kombat 1/mk12.exe.' Select "mk12.exe.")

-Low latency mode to "Ultra."
-Max Frame Rate to "60fps"
-Power Management Mode to "Prefer Maximum Performance."

I ended up refunding and buying it on PS5. Sucks that i cant use the xbox controller tho, as the d-pad on it is superior to the dualsense d-pad

There is a difference between tinkering to improve something and tinkering because the devs are lazy. You should not need to tinker to get a 100 euro piece of software to have functional ingame video playback.

I guess I'm just from a time when it was an expectation.
