Hi!
There is some odd behavior going on in the LiveViewer, I don't think I've encountered it before the latest Octane version.
(I'm using C4D 2026.1.0 and Octane 2026.2 Build 1.8.4)
1. When rendering to the LiveViewer, any change in the Octane Settings appears to switch to ignoring any Camera Imager settings and instead shows default sRGB, until I restart the render. This behavior is shown here:

2. When rendering Volume Effects Fog, switching between Main beauty render and DeMain denoiser in the LiveViewer appears to temporarily turn off Post Processing, again until restarting the render in the LiveViewer. See capture:

Here is the project file:

Please let me know if you need further info.
Cheers

Changing setting alters LiveViewer look + switching between denoised beauty/regular beauty turns off Post Processing

Thanks for your report.
To tell the truth, we already have a ticket about this issue, but was finished at the bottom of the list, so I've bring it up on top again.
Happy GPU rendering!
ciao,
