9 frames were black

Same problem for me.

I updated my CUDA driver, which didn't help, so I rendered in standalone... which incidentally was substantially faster.

Going to try it in Standalone too. Will report back!

Rendering in Standalone is ok. No black frames.

Hi J.C,

Could you please share a bit more about the reproduce steps? If it is possible, could you please PM me a demo scene? Thanks.

Cheers,

Sure, here it is. You need to render an animation to see if there are black frames.

Installed the new official 4.0 release and I didn't see any black frames during animation rendering with the same scene file.

Others can confirm as well?

Yep, I tested the same scene and no black frames aswell.

Same for me - no black frames.

Got some lagging/sticking when moving nodes around, and some oddities when motion blur stops working if I switch between 'symmetric' and 'after' on the direction, but nothing I can consistently replicate at the moment. I'll create a separate thread.

Tested scene on stable v4 16.3; no black frames.

Yes, the final 4 release should have fixed the black frames issue.
