Hi Juanjo,
thanks for checking and the tip about unchecking "render to mplay" makes my hopes fly high again.
I am working on Win7.

I think that I have found the problem.
Please check your Houdini configuration folder ($HOME/houdini15). If the at some point in the past your MPlay application have crashed, sometimes it could leave in this folder a file named something like ".flipbook_lock.computer_name". Remove it and the MPlay should work again without problems.

I am testing the "save parameters as permanent defaults" feature here with the Octane 3 plugin and it seems to work fine. Does anyone else have this problem?Stassius wrote:And another one. "Save parameter as permanent defaults" is not working. Say in render target node or in Octane rop node. And when i try to save preset, it shows visualisation menu. Is it even possible to use presets? It would be handy.
