Animation Preview failed

Help and Troubleshooting
1

Hi everyone,

I’m facing a new issue with my animation.
I switched to a new GPU (RTX 4090) and now I have trouble with the animation preview.
When I click on preview button, it fails to start frame 1, with this error message:

2023-05-04%2012-07-59

I’ve updated my nvidia driver and tried on a new scene with a simple cube which rotates, same bug.
Even if I switch back to CPU mode, preview doesn’t work.
In an other way, traditnionnal renders work fine.

Preview seems to work if I set less than 32 sample per frame. More, it fails to start.
And it bugs on some frames during the preview.

Thanks.

I had the same issue some time ago. But the current preview uses CPU only I think and there are not that many things you can change. So what I currently do is just render on for example half the resolution and 128-256 samples and will give you a faster result in higher resolution, especially with a nice 4090 :slight_smile:
