I am sporadically having a bit of a problem in one of my scenes since I switched to H20. When rendering to disk or Mplay, Karma is getting stuck on some buckets then just hangs there forever and won't finish.

I attached a simplified scene. It won't render frame 1182 and has a couple of buckets that just keep going.

Any luck is very much appreciated.

I don't get any lockup on my system. Houdini completes the render in 49 seconds. You might want to try changing some settings. 1280x549 is kind of weird. Perhaps try 1280x550 or 1280x720, make sure your resolution is evenly divided by two?

Which build of H20?

20.0.547, but the previous production build also had the same issue.

Thanks, I tried that and got the same results, unfortunately.
Was this tried in H20 or H19.5?

We're having this issue on our farm specifically with volumes. Stuck at 99.9% for hours and wont move on.

Yes, this is exactly the issue that I am having.

Have you sent this as a repro to Sidefx yet? We're just sending ours through now - it'll be good for them to have multiple examples.

Ive also noticed resubmissions don't fix the issue - which suggests the error is encoded.

I can reproduce with H20.0.551

Yes I just sent one.

Bug ID# 133801 has been logged.

Is this being solved? I am also having this exact same issue on build 547 on Fedora.

I can confirm that this is still happening on build 578.
