Segmentation fault with Mplay

[Ultron 1]

Hi!

WHO I AM:

I am Tobi from Germany. I work for television and do Animations for kids (2D and 3D). In the Past I worked a lot with Softimage, now I use Cinema. But Cinema isn´t the best tool to do Effects. Thats why I finally downloaded Houdini and try to get into it with tutorials in the moment. I hope I also will have a nice time in your impressive community.

 

MY PROBLEM:

I think this isn´t a newbee problem:

I have a new test scene and insert: cube, distant light, camera and a mantra node. After that I start MPlay and get this Error Message:

Error Command Exit Code: 1

13536: Fatal error: Segmentation fault

mantra: Error writing data to image device

 

Sometimes Mpay Starts but after the next start I get this Error Message (with changing Numbers) again. Rendering to Disk and Render View is no problem at all.

My System

Houdini 16.5.323

Edit: Today I uninstalled this version and tried the 16.5.496. No Changes

Intel i5-3570

RAM 8GB

Windows 10 64bit

 

Can you help me? Exact Error Message and Crash log is attached.

Hi,

Try a very new build -- there were some updates to Windows which caused some issues with TBB and such. I saw this come and go on the SideFX forum.  Try the Daily Build.

I did.  I uninstalled this version and tried the 16.5.496. No Changes

I thought it might be the Firewall but it isn´t either.

At the moment I am on a basic Ocean Tutorial. While Exporting the Displacement maps Idialog crashes as well. 

CPU and Ram aren´t fully used. Sometimes I can Produce one Picture sometimes not a single one. Any Ideas? Im thinking of reinstalling my Computer...

 

/ edit:

bought a new Computer - problem solved
