Vital freezes after a while under renoise

Hey there,

I am using renoise as a host, nvidia proprietary drivers under ubuntu 20.10
OpenGL version string: 4.6.0 NVIDIA 460.32.03
Vital 1.0.5 VST3

While using Vital, after opening/closing the VST GUI many times if I open the GUI the window becomes black or has frozen widgets. I can’t click on anything else inside renoise.

To be able to use it I have to force quit the vital window that terminates also renoise

If I don’t open the Vital GUI looks like everything is going smooth

Thanks!

PS: it happened once that vital warned me in the GUI that I did not have the correct opengl drivers, I closed and reopened it and everything was fine (for a bit)

The same happens with Vital 1.0.7

Thanks for the report, looking into it.

Vital 1.0.8 does not freeze anymore.
There is a smallish issue tho’. When I open Vital it is opened at the smallest window size. I have to make it bigger by dragging the corner, however for me personally it’s a minor issue

Yeah I’ve been looking at this but I don’t have a quick fix unfortunately.

I’ve been working on a new rendering backend that I think will fix most of these graphics driver/card issues but it will take a bit of time to release.
