darktable - driver timeout + black jpeg with blurs module

22.3.1 should be recent enough for this.

What I mean with the software is likely in the right hand side near the clock. Exit the program or something.

You canā€™t do it from the system tray. Thereā€™s only a hide option, but it still works in the background.
Based on the fact that my system runs absolutely fine with games and other graphics programs, this just seems to be a problem with the Blurs module and darktable, so Iā€™m reluctant to mess too much with drivers, etc. Iā€™ll probably just avoid that module now until I upgrade my GPU in the future.

games and other graphics programs ā€¦ games use OpenGL instead of OpenCL which is a different story.

We had a number of AMD specific DT bugs in 3.8 , difficult to know if this a problem here.

You might have to increase that ā€¦ the default has increased for 4.0

I think this is not a darktable bug, but the AMD software is detecting a driver timeout and reacting to it. I think it would be wise for the OP to temporarily disable the AMD software to test if it is still a problem.

I agree and given this post there could be a variety of things at playā€¦not DT relatedā€¦ good list of things to try here
