Bugfixes
Great to see constant work being made on the program. It still feels like this is far from a finished product though…
The drag & drop function does not work, it is working in the previous version.
Any one bought RTX3080? Please share information on its performance.
Did you try restarting the app? We have noticed if the app is launched from the installer drag and drop does not work properly.
I’ve submitted a ticket to support about something I’m experiencing with this version. So selecting Theia Details and using 100% denoise/deblock it crashes the program during engine initialize notice . The GPU is at 50% and I tried it with 100% and 200% and still crash. According to the event viewer in windows the “Faulting module name: ucrtbase.dll” is what causes the program to crash but I never had this issue before today’s 1.6.0. All Nvidia drivers are up to date .
Check your email I sent a response. We need some more data from you 
Yes sir thank you for your time I’ve sent you a new logs from the logs folder after the program crashed twice just now.
Tried to install on my non GPU machine. Can’t even run the installer. Crashes instantly with “The program can’t start because nvml.dll is missing from your computer. Try reinstalling the program to fix this problem.”
So I take it the program cannot run in OpenVINO only mode any more and absolutely requires a GPU? If so, that blows.
Add my name to the list. Can do previews, but starting the job immediately hangs, causing error in Windows.
Reinstalled 1.5.3. All is well.
I tried downloading the nvml.dll file from dll-files.com. I put it in the same directory as the installer.
The installer ran and the program seems to start and work OK so far. Maybe a little bit slower than 1.5.3? Still too early to tell yet.
It is working now after restart the app.
No issue on performance, still getting 0.10s / frame for 352*288 input. The audio is now perfectly synced with the video and result in higher quality bitrates. Would prefer if CRF option is available in the future updates.
Thanks.
I have a Win 10-pro laptop with RTX3000 and am installing 1.6.0. Do you need benchmarks?
This time it works, no bug at launch.
The choice of bitrate is great and Theia mode does indeed seem to be of better quality for reducing artifacts.
Hello!
I have on a Mac (High Sierra 10.13.6)
I have installed 1.6, and unfortunately the program crashes right at the start!
I could install and open the 1.5.3!
What can I do?
Best Regards
Stefan

I don’t believe high Sierra is a supported OS. You can try to contact support though and we can see what we can do.
Hi there please turn on logging and contact support.
Can you please contact support so we can resolve your issue?
Thanks
