Now when we're in the age of working remotely I have tested parsec and It's pretty good. I can even animate and get decent playback.
The problem came when I tried the virtual displays setting. When I turn it on Houdini crashes on startup. All other apps I have tried seem to work.

Might be a GPU issue? I use Parsec all the time with Houdini (windows) and it works great.

Did you use virtual display?

I get this same problem every time using virtual display driver.

Try adding this to ENV file in your documents folder under Houdini , it worked for me.

HOUDINI_USE_HFS_OCL = 0

You have perfectly solved my problem. Thank you very much.

I used Parsec Virtual Display. When I remotely controled Houdini, the program crashed.

But after I added this line of code to the .env file, Houdini can now open normally.

Oh wow. Thank you so much. It worked splendidly!
Have a great day.

Oh wow thx @Drewzee! Awesome

Hello there.

We're encountering this issue with our new 5090 GPU, even with the houdini.env properly set. Is there any trick for this new nvidia serie ? It's working correctly on 4090.

Thanks

I plugged a display emulator for this in another display port. this works fine for me
