interface completely unresponsive during IPR

[vanished]

Hi,

When firing up IPR (in either CPU and GPU mode) in the VFB by either pressing the green play button-teapot in the VFB or IPR (VFB) in the shelf tools, the Houdini Interface immediately becomes completely unresponsive and doesn't redraw anymore until I press STOP. Once pushed, the interface immediately returns.
During this, the VFB, the houdini Console and other software are responsive and updating. (see snaggy screenshot)

I'm using Houdini 17.5.173 with Vray 4.12.03 (Build 9051085 from 07 Aug 2019 04:37) on Win 7 Pro SP1. On RTX2080ti with latest Nvidia drivers (431.60)
I've attached the simple HIP.

Tried restarting houdini, rebooting,... same result.

Also: after starting and stopping IPR I have to close and reopen the VFB because pressing the green play button-teapot doesn't do anything anymore.

Any ideas?


Cheers,
Tim

That's the connected deadline node that causing this; I'll fix this while you could disconnect it now as a workaround.

Confirmed. Disconnecting the deadline node fixes both issues, it seems!
Thanks a lot for your quick response. You guys rock.
