  • When encoding with this release audio is out of sync after encoding a export video file (when output is set to copy audio, does not happen when set to convert).
  • Along with black video in the export file (i even reinstalled nvidia studio driver and reinstalled v6,0,2 again, same issue of black screen video with only audio)
  • crashes multiple times while trying to run previews
  • when it crashes GUI crashes but program is still running in background windows processes
  • have to force shut down PC
  • previews cause crashes similar to how Live Render would just keep running and crash app but still be running in background with no way to stop process

Why is it when i :

  • open a tab and set start and end markers and then click preview Render IN - OUT button …
  • and then open a 2nd tab …
  • configure different encode settings for 2nd tab …
  • and then click Render IN - OUT on 2nd tab …
  • the first tab stops encoding the preview?

Is this by design? *Why cant i queue Previews?

That means i have to stand by my computer and constantly check each active tab when its done dong a preview.

  • How can this improve workflow for preview encodes without a preview queue?
  • Then why have preview tabs if previews get auto stopped when starting a preview within another tab?
  • Unless i am not seeing it the new UI?

This is really frustrating even though I renewed my license for a step down in functionality and workflow.

But another issue i see is…

  • And preview file is missing Video from first 20 second of preview encode.
  • And if your on a tab and Render In and Out button is disabled if you start a preview on another tab that interrupted its preview from running.
  • V6.0.2 also crashes when downloading models.

This version made previews unusable along with exports of video with only black, please help :slight_smile:

I have to go back to v5.3.6 until Preview Queuing is added back, and doesnt crash.

Another release making the program even more useless… I’m once again rolling back to 5.3.6. The last version that actually worked.

the most important “update” is missing: get rid of the latest gui … I have to stick to 5.3.6 as well I am afraid.

As we have learned several times that’s not how it works around here!

I know, but since the Video department of Topaz replaced their free professional beta testers in favor of unreliable “everyone’s” my unprofessional feedback might be excusable. :smiley:

So 6.0.2 has a lot more of bugs…more crashes…and still not fixed Pause/Resume…i am right yes ?

A Release Version should be stable !!!
So you can work with it…

We have again go back to Version 5.3.6(Released Oktober) what is the most stable Version until now(also with lot´s of other bugs like GUI not updating to Preset-Settings)
UI Bugs: 1st Enhancement not shown, 2nd Enhancement shown as 1st, 2nd disabled, but using the preset correctly
5.3.6 is the last recent Version where Pause/Resume is working !!
(But to see last Exports you have to click on “Selected” and “All Inputs” first.)

With other words 5.3.6 should be named Release and 6.0.2 is still BETA.
But what i read about 6.0.2 it´s not even Beta more Alpha…

When there will be the next real Release after 5.3.6 ?!

Even though I have a license I wait 3 months or longer to update. I think I had like 30+ updates in my reminder list at one point. I am always scared with topaz software

and the VFR thing is solved? Force CFR is not a solution.

oh dear :cry: then it’s still unusable for me, means I will continue to use V6 only for RheaXL and V5.3.6 for all others. Then renewing license makes no sense to me, I wish it were different

I can report that TEMP folder behavior (and the preview files location) is correct in this versiononce more! Time to test further! :slight_smile:
All on RTX 3090, Win10 and i9 7940X (I know, old CPU) :slight_smile:

I think NVIDIA’s 5000 series NEEDS MUCH optimization for TVAI! :sweat_smile:

I warned that version 6.0.2 is full of bugs but nobody listened to me and they blocked me in the post of version 6.0.1

New Update. Umm, once again, I ask, where is the loop preview? I will not be keeping this subscription if you don’t stop messing about with core functionality.

What kind of hardware do you use for VEAI 6? I mean GPU, OS, RAM, CPU?

When the models are ready for the Blackwell architecture, and CUDA toolkit is ready for it, it’s going to be way better, I hope. :slight_smile:
