Viewport Interactive Rendering becomes unresponsive after switching project color management to OpenColorIO

[greymiura]

Thanks a lot, Chaos, for this really impressive 6.1 update!

When I initially experienced some issues I decided to simply wait for the first fix and most of them are indeed gone after installing version 6.1001.

One thing unfortunately persists and that is the Viewport Interactive Rendering (which btw is so great) becoming totally unresponsive after switching to OpenColorIO in the C4D Project Settings in 2023.2.1, even with the most basic scenes. The CPU runs at 100%, but it takes ages until the rendered view appears and if you turn the mouse wheel or click on a menu entry it takes half a minute for C4D to react. Things improve only slightly after reducing the preview resolution. Interactive rendering in the VFB on the other hand works fine and smooth as always.

Is there anyone else experiencing this problem?

Hi greymiura, we are aware of this issue, but unfortunately we didn't have time to fix it for this release. We are in contact with Maxon about this problem and will be fixing this in a future update. For now the only alternative is to use the Basic Color management for rendering interactive in the viewport.

We're sorry for the inconvenience and will update this thread once we have a working solution.
