Anybody else using Joint Capture Paint SOP and finding it very unstable? I get very frequent random "segmentation fault" crashes all the time - usually when undoing, but I can't give exact reproduction steps and fill a bug report.
Node also produces python errors. Sometimes it garbles all the weights after a python error. Sometimes I manage to save scene in a state just before crash, and I can't open it again - I get segmentation foult immediately after opening.
Overall it seems like a very nice weight painting node, just it's so unstable for me, almost unusable.

Just wanted to add to this that this has been fixed since 19.5.562 and is now working perfectly - rock solid! Thank's SideFX!

In H20 it's completely unusable. It's not just unstable, but I literally can't enter the view state.

I got this python error:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "C:\PROGRA~1/SIDEEF~1/HOUDIN~1.590/houdini/python3.10libs\hudinfohandler.py", line 268, in onHudSetTemplate
    hud.setTemplate(kwargs["hud_template"])
  File "C:\PROGRA~1/SIDEEF~1/HOUDIN~1.590/houdini/python3.10libs\hudinfohandler.py", line 120, in setTemplate
    self._hud.toolInfo().setTemplate(hud_template)
  File "C:\PROGRA~1/SIDEEF~1/HOUDIN~1.590/houdini/python3.10libs\hutil\qt\data\panels.py", line 823, in setTemplate
    self.resolveHotkeys()
  File "C:\PROGRA~1/SIDEEF~1/HOUDIN~1.590/houdini/python3.10libs\hutil\qt\data\panels.py", line 857, in resolveHotkeys
    self._scene_viewer.hotkeyAssignments(symlist)
  File "C:\PROGRA~1/SIDEEF~1/HOUDIN~1.590/houdini/python3.10libs\hou.py", line 80628, in hotkeyAssignments
    return _hou.SceneViewer_hotkeyAssignments(self, hotkey_symbols)
ValueError: Invalid hotkey symbol (h.pane.gview.radial)

Even with a completely clean Houdini install without custom preferences or hotkeys.

The whole thing is just unbelievably broken. I mean, yeah, it's more of an UI bug and one can hack the python script in python3.10libs to make it work... but seriously how was KineFX the selling point of 19 and 19.5...
