Hello,

doesn't work on Appel Mac mini 2020 (M1) . Same problem since longer time!!

Helicon focus has problems with Open CL! Can not understand why?

We have tested this release on the 2020 M1 Mac Mini and it works. Please send a bug report after getting this error (menu - Help - Contact support).
I suspect you are running an unsupported older version of macOS, like 13.6.

I'm running 14.4.1 and just tried the version that Catherine posted from 10/30. Each image gets opened in the DNG converter (shows in the dock) one-by-one, as opposed to in an earlier version, where you will see 2-3 images showing up at a time in the dock. No OpenCL support for either version, and I'm on an M2 Max.

I'll record a short video and describe how each version renders differently, but the old version literally renders 2x as fast as the 10/30 version. Don't know why, but I've submitted bug reports for each version after rendering a stack.

15.2 ...

15.2 ...

The latest version works (8.3.0), if yours doesn't - download the new one.

Just realised we are already on 15.3 and it is still working. Did you find a way to get out of the updating needs on every new Mac OS?!

[Catherine]

Hopefully yes, at least for now (until they change something again).
