Hello is it me, or the latest 5.2 addon, displays a grey render in octane viewport ?

Thanks

Did I do something wrong ? as not getting any reply... Is it working for anyone else?

Yeah, something's wrong. We'll check. Thanks!

Now it works. I think it mught be due to some kind of initialization problem. I just changed the preview pass to beauty before launching the preview, and now it always works, with any preview pass selected.
I could only reproduce it the very first time I tried.

Thanks, will try
Well tried changed the preview pass to beauty before launching the preview and no change for me.
Reinit, closed program changed to different kernels, nada
But nm, Until its fixed, i will stay to blenders preview, thank you

Could you please send me a simple scene showing the issue?

It does it with just a default direct lighting template.
I go to shader AOV, change it to beauty render on Blender viewport is fine, when i initiate the octane viewport its not working.

It looks like it only happens the first time I launch the preview after loading your scene.
And only when Blender and the Server have been just launched.
Also, it doesn't happen 100% of the times here.
Did you try to close and reopen the Octane Viewport?

Sometimes it works, but without me doing anything just changing windows.etc.
But seriously for me it's 60% misbehaving.

There's something important to consider.
That viewport is there for debugging purpose; it shouldn't be used for "regular" work.
That said, we really need to be able to identify and track the exact steps to reproduce the issue for fixing it.
