Ive got a shot in the dark too. Are you using the free version of Nuke?

Hi Steve,

Just to be certain we're talking about the same thing, is it safe to assume 
that the artifacts you're seeing are noise like speckles that change frame to 
frame/on refresh vs some equally random though more structured issue?

It still sounds like it's an issue with the output row not being set to 0 - can 
you isolate it to one or more channels, ie. just in red, or just red and green, 
etc.?  You're not creating any new rows yourself that haven't been set to 0?

I would say comment everything out except for your memset, and then slowly add 
them back in until you see the artifacts.  It's really hard to help more 
without seeing code.  :)

I might be wrong when I said the artifacts were consistent, artifacts do 
actually seem to be random, which makes more sense but is still annoying.

Hi Colin,

Of course, rookie error!  That has stopped the crashing but hasn't stopped the 
artifacts.  Does this mean I can rule out issues with the output buffer?  I 
think all I can do is get the pixel output down to a manageable size so I can 
check exactly what values are getting output and any variables associated with 
them.  Sounds like a fun evening!

It sounds like you need to zero out the row ( nuke doesn't do this for you ) 
prior using it - thus you're memset is heading down the right path you're call 
is wrong,

memset( buffer +x, 0, (r-x) * sizeof(float));

you have to remember that although the pointer is pointing to [0] that may not 
be safe if Nuke's only managing x to r.

This should hopefully avoid the crash.

cheers

Hi,

I'm wondering if you guys can give me some pointers in where I might look to 
iron out a glitch in my DrawIop.  So everything is generally working as I want 
it, but I'm getting very small glitches in the output.  Could be in my code but 
I'm noticing the glitches change when I use any knob, even those unconnected 
with the output which is a bit odd.  I've even added a null knob that does 
absolutely nothing just to test this.  Change this knob and my artifacts change.

So, what I'm trying to do first is work out why my output (albeit with 
artifacts) is changing when I move unrelated controls.  I'm assuming certain 
things get updated on any knob change?  I know it hard without seeing code, but 
have you guys got any ideas what is called/updated each time a knob is changed? 
 If it helps, things don't change when changing to a different frame, only when 
using a knob.  Also, the change in artifacts will change consistently, in other 
words if I move a slider back and forth, the result will change consistently 
back and forth, same artifact pattern for each value.

I've also tried emptying the output buffer with memset for each row before 
filling it again to see if this affected things, but this is crashing nuke,

memset(buffer, 0, (R - X) * sizeof(float));

This has kind of got me stumped.

Steve
