Method 2. Disable Hardware Acceleration 

This applies only if you have a GPU installed that supports hardware acceleration. Hardware acceleration is a process that lets the graphics card borrow some more computing power from the CPU.

It can sometimes cause a bottleneck in CPU usage and cause a Video Scheduler Internal Error problem.

To fix this, you need to turn off hardware acceleration

2. If your computer has hardware acceleration enabled, toggle it off.

Restart your computer for the change to take effect.

2. Right-click and select “Run as administrator.”

3. Type “CHKDSK C: /f/r” and press Enter. F stands for fix (fix the file system) and R for repair (repair the damaged sectors if any)

4. Wait for the process to complete.

If there is any damage to the file system or any sectors, CHKDSK will offer a summary of what it found and what it could fix.

Reboot the computer.

Next, let’s answer some commonly asked questions about the Video Scheduler Internal Error and how to repair corrupted video files.

FAQs

1. Does Video Scheduler Internal Error BSOD harm the computer?

BSOD happens when due to a hardware component, driver, or software, something somewhere consumes too many resources. Shutting the computer down and rebooting is the only way to save the circuitry. But you should investigate why BSOD occurred from BSOD log files in the Event Viewer.

2. How to load the Event Viewer?

It is quite simple:

1. Press “Win + X” and select “Event Viewer.”

2. Expand “Windows Logs” and select “System”.

3. Click “Filter Current Log” on the right panel.

4. Check “Error” and “Critical” under the Event level, then click “OK”.

5. Look for Event ID starting with 1001 and “bugcheck”.

6. Copy the error and search online to find the exact reason.

Most of the time it can help. Such as bugcheck code 0x00000116 means VIDEO_TDR_FAILURE. If you cannot find the meaning, post it on Microsoft Community for the best answers.

3. Can a failing GPU cause the Video Scheduler Internal Error?

Yes, it is the most likely cause. There is no perfect way to test it since discrete GPUs can work perfectly at a normal load and start to cause problems only when it nears 100% performance.

You could place it under load by doing GPU tests that run 3D renderings to stress the GPU and observe if it crashes.

The best alternative is to remove the GPU and let the computer run for a few days with the integrated GPU on the motherboard. You will not be able to play heavy-duty games but almost every modern integrated GPU lets you watch 1080P video without any problem.

If the Video Scheduler Internal Error BSOD doesn’t appear in the next few days, the GPU you removed was at fault.

4. Is there a free trial version of Stellar Repair for Video?

You can download and install the software for free. The free version lets you preview 20% of the repaired video files. To recover and save the entire file, you need to purchase a license.

5. Can I repair drone footage using Stellar Repair for Video?

Stellar Repair for Video can fix video files irrespective of origin. It works with videos from CCTV, drones, DSLRs, and all other sources. It also works with all video codecs and containers, including MP4, AVI, MOV, and more.
