Happens randomly where the first frame renders fine then its like the denoiser drops out from there. This is with denoise on end and reduce flickering/interpolation both on.
See attached. I literally aborted that sequence then ran it again and it didn’t produce the same artifacts after the first frame. Running on nvidia driver 546.01
Can you share the scene and the render settings so we can test it on our end? You can use the Chaos Help form with a link to the forum thread: https://support.chaos.com/hc/en-us/requests/new. You will have to include all asset files. Once we have the scene and do some testing we will write back.
I’ve had this problem many times through livelink, hence I’ll never render animations in particular through livelink, there is no rhyme or reason for it.
