M1 Max OpenCL

[Klinke]

Mac OS goes up to 14.7 and for all with no fears to 15.0.

What is your plan will you update for both?

[Catherine]

Yes, we're working on it and will support both (unless there's some problem).

The new version for macOS 14.7 and 15.0 is ready: https://www.heliconsoft.com/downloads/HeliconFocus.dmg
Note: if further macOS 14.x versions are released (14.8+), we will most likely not be able to support them. But we'll see.

[Klinke]

Thank you Catherine.

Hello Catherine, the latest version (8.2.17) for macOS 15.0 still can’t initialize OpenCL. Tried to activate it several times and after every restart of the app it prompts the error.

[Klinke]

OpenCL does not work on 15.0 using Apple M2 Ultra.

On 14.7 it seems to work fine ...

[shutterbug]

Yeah I think the new version works for 14.7 but not 15.0

Which is really problematic as I just updates to 15.0 after reading Catherines comment and following the link.

[Catherine]

We're looking into it.

[Klinke]

We're looking into it. Please let us know your CPU model, or better yet - send a bug report after getting the error (but only when it says "OpenCL ... failed.", not "... failed on previous launch").

Just sent ...

[Catherine]

Thanks, this will be an easy fix, but there's a problem with our development system after updating to 15.0, so please wait until tomorrow.

Support for M1 and M2 on 15.0 fixed (M3 was working already): https://www.heliconsoft.com/downloads/HeliconFocus.dmg

[Klinke]

Seems to work on both, thanks.

OpenCL does not work on 15.0.1 using Apple M1 Mac Mini 2020

Make sure to download the latest version of Helicon Focus, and use that version: https://www.heliconsoft.com/downloads/HeliconFocus.dmg
It works with M1 on macOS 15.0.

Here we are again ... 15.1
