Image Sequence Output Corrupt/Glitched frames

Hello everyone

I’ve been using Matinee image sequence output for a long time now to create nice quality videos as fast as possible. Since the beginning that this issue appeared in both “High Resolution Screenshot” and .jpg and .png image sequence (mostly jpeg for size), more often in HiResScreenShot because I multiply up to 4x, but it’s not a problem to take another one, it is a problem for video frames because I’m doing 10k+ frames sometimes, and some of them will be glitched, making it impossible to import them to after effects or another editing software or it just gets an error while rendering the video.

This happened when I was running with 2x980Ti and it still happens now with 1x1080, I suppose it’s a very demanding task and well… this could happen, or could it be a hardware problem? (I would exclude the GPU in this case, but then I wouldn’t know where to start, it’s a high end machine and I think something is off but I don’t have enough knowledge to diagnose ).

Either way, has anyone encountered this issue? Because I didn’t find any topic with similar problems searching for the keywords “glitch” and “corrupt” along with image sequence, matinee, etc.

I’ve also checked the “close editor during capture” and I couldn’t get the DUMPMOVIE and BENCHMARK command lines to work properly through the bat file. However, these glitches make it look like the GPU doesn’t finish the frame, even though it is supposed to.

I’ve gone with Full HD most of the time, and it would take less time to re-render and replace the faulty frames, but this one is going to play on a 4k monitor so it would be nice to have a proper resolution for such a screen and it’s not going very well.

jpeg sequence exported in 4k (200% screen resolution in post process), with a single GTX1080

Single High Res screenshots somewhere between 4k and 8k, these were taken some months ago with the 2x980Ti setup, the image sequence doesn’t seem to produce the colorful glitches

Thank you in advance

John
