Capture One kernel panic

Thanks, Per.

 

I had heard of OpenCL, but it didn't spark my brain. :o

 

And although I recently upgraded to Capture One Pro, I haven't been able to talk myself into getting down to work on it.

 

So threads like this are of interest because they highlight features and problems that I'll want to know "real soon now." :rolleyes:

It is under the general preferences (first pane) "use open CL" and a dropdown menu gives you the choice automatic or never.

On my wife's iMac which is the last type with a matte screen it works perfectly without problems.

On a new iMac which we have it gives the problems I mentioned. Seems that some graphic cards can't handle it.

As to speed and advantages, I have seen nothing notable.

There are many posts on the GetDPI forum about this same problem and many have also set it to never.

I just set mine to "auto" but I don't think my NVidia card, while it supports the standard, has the juice to speed anything up....not that C1 lags anyway, but I'm hoping I can multitask more effectively....

No kernal panic since I'm on Windows, but C1-6 is most certainly the least stable application I've seen in years. And it does not fail gracefully, usually loss of work occurs.

 

Version 6.1 appears to resolve the issues I was experiencing on my Windows XP installation. Hopefully it will do the same for Mac users.

FWIW, I just updated my system drive (SSD!) and video card (nVidia 580) and C1 fairly flies now :) No problems with 6.1 (on Win 7 64bit).

 

I also needed a new laptop, so I might pick up a Macbook Air since it's light and nicely made. We'll see how C1 gets on with it :)

Maybe you want to wait a bit for the MB Air, Jamie.

Apple is expected to update the whole range of MacBook Air in june and Pro maybe as soon as next march.

MB Air

Just be delayed by the recent Sandy Bridge Intel processor production glitch.

I did have kernel panics on C1 V5 pro. I spoke at length to Jakub at P1. He suggested that, after deactivating on that machine, I vacuum my system for all C1 files, not just in applications and pictures but in library/application support, preferences, caches, start up agents, receipts etc etc. After this you do a fresh reinstall, where you will need to re-enter activation code and your account details. I had far fewer issues after this. I went through the same routine when installing V6 Pro. Although not 100% stable, I have not had kernel panics. I have been using it on 2007 iMac, 2008 core 2 MacBook Air and 2009 13" MacBook Pro. I was suffering frequent SBOD's (spinning beach balls of death) on the MBP but I think that was down to a hard disc issue. Since fitting one of the new Seagate Momentus Hybrid (combined rotating and SSD) drives, this issue has gone away, along with a significant improvement in speed of my MBP. A very good £100 investment.
