Render hangs when using passes

Hello everyone,

i noticed that my F10 renders hangs when i'm using passes,
it stays on the Zpass render forever.
What is strange is that this issue only happens when i'm using
the internal cards of my workstation only, when using a network
node with them, all works fine and frames are computed normally.
Last night my slave computer just decided to reboot for windows
update (it was a new computer and i forgot to deactivate the automatic
feature in the parameters), and the render just stopped right away...
Do you have any idea what could be going on?
Anyone had the same issue?
Thanks a lot

Olivier

What version of the plugin are you using? If you are working with the 2.2 plugin, you can try to enable the "Start After Beauty" available in the Info passes tab.

Thanks Juanjo,

it works fine when starting the beauty first,
and it solved another issue i had :
Arbitrary, let's say i asked the render to reach 1000 samples,
it would stop at 450 samples and move on to the next frame.
The thing is that there was actually 1000 samples computed
but the Ms/s was adapted in the info view to match the render times...
Anyway thanks again for the quick response and solved problem as usual :)
Cheers

Olivier
