Topaz Apps - Screen flickering under Sonoma

That is the solution? To turn the sample rate down permanently?

Time to switch to another product then I guess. Would have been nice to know that before I paid for the renewal on Gigapixel.

I’m having the same problem with Mac Studio. I have no duplicates in my color profile list. Now what?

Just a note to Topaz, your attitude to this kind of issue is the reason why you’ve lost me as a customer. I don’t actually want your integrated app, partly because it has a phenomenally awful ray converter, but mainly because I wanted plug-ins. I’d have paid for just maintenance on Sharpen/Denoise, but no, you want to bait and switch. You’ve sadly demonstrated yourselves to be a serial untrustworthy company.

Good question. You could try what worked for me before I discovered that eliminating a duplicate color profile solved the problem (for me). If you have two displays attached to your Mac Studio, unplug one. I understand that this is not a very satisfctory solution (provided that it works for you) but it did resolve my issue at the time. Other than that, I have nothing further to offer apart from suggestions made by others in this thread.

Thanks for your response. I only have my Apple Studio Display. And, I do not see duplicate color profiles.

Thank you! This worked!

The problem also be with Adobe. I was unable to delete duplicates as suggested in another message.
If you click on the duplicate profiles, you may find that one of them shows this:

/Library/Application%20Support/Adobe/Color/Profiles/Reccommended/AdobeRGB1998.icc

I’m contacting Adobe as soon as this is posted.

Ich habe das selbe Problem mit meinem I-MAC 27 Sonoma 14.6.1 , vorher ging alles aber nach dem Update habe ich auch das Flackern beim Topaz Sharpen. Was kann man machen?

I have the same problem with my I-MAC 27 Sonoma 14.6.1, before that everything went but after the update I also have the flickering with the Topaz Sharpen. What can you do?

right, so reducing the display capabiliities works. I haven’t used Sharpen AI for a year because of this and never thought to check the forum :exploding_head:

Also nice to know that Sharpen AI is abandonware. Yeah nah! won’t be purchasing the replacement product

spoke too soon…the fix worked for a few minutes and it flashed away.

:rage:

I’m having the same issue now, too. I tried some of the workarounds in this thread, but none have worked yet. I have epilepsy, and the flashing doesn’t work for me. I can’t even use Topaz at all. Help!

Yeah, I tried this, deleted a color profile that was a duplicate, even changed to the profile of my monitor and nope, it still flickers. M1 Mac. Topaz labs can stop sending me emails trying to get new business, they’ll never get another penny out of me. Total abandonware - the last version seems to be from 2022.
