Every time I open the octane live viewer window, the screen appears to be white (regardless of the scene) and then when I add it to my perspective display screen and try to adjust the size this happens. Whenever I try to render with the live viewer, the live viewer side is frozen and it renders on the left side where my perspective display scene is... Does anybody know why this would happen? Everything was fine last night and when I went to use it today, this occurred.

Hi,
please, go to Live View menu Options, and disable the Viewport Rendering option.

A little Occam's razer before trying to diagnose further

Have you

A.) tried a different scene (a new file with just a square with octane mat on it will suffice)

B.) reloaded the scene in the live viewer

C.) verified all mats/cameras/lights etc are octane mats/tagged?

There WAS a post associated with this;
Octane for C4D, renders to picture viewer fine and the C4D viewport, but the Octane Live View is stark white no matter what I do.
Am I missing something blindingly obvious?

Hi,
please check that the Viewport Rendering option is not enabled, in Live View menu Options.

Then please share a complete screenshot of the interface, I suspect you have installed an old version of plugin.
