Hello

In a scene, the interactive Rendering is always restarting if the mouse cursor was moved over a viewport or the frame buffer. sounds like a bug, but might be something different (like a strange script controller maybe...)

did somebody else encounter this behaviour?

I get it pretty often ;- ).

I haven't been yet able to find out what feature exactly contributes towards it. I was given suggestion that it is another culprit stemming from physical camera but I do have some doubts.
Mainly because it reacts to framebuffer itself which is not 3dsMax native thing.

Usually it comes with second bug on top (but not always together) when even when not moving cursor, it will restart after certain (different) amount of passes or time or whatever it is. In loop.

ok, so we are not the only ones (with a good amount of custom tools in our pipe, this would have been possible though). What kind of things are exactly triggering the callback for the interactive render refresh? maybe we can break it down this way?

I have zero custom tools so you can safely discount that :- ).

I have a scene, where only one camera does it I believe. There are two cameras and I think they are pretty identical...I will try to find time to open it and see if I can figure something.

3dsmax physical camera is still causing this and we cannot fix this, only solution is to either not use 3dsmax physical camera (use corona cam instead), or wait for bugfix in 3dsmax...

Happens to me too in Max 2019. Yet, I only ever use the CoronaCam.

@Ben, if you are able to reproduce it, please let us know. This would be a quite serious issue, and it would be great to fix it.

Absolutely, I tried with with the problematic scene today but it was playing nice. I'll keep at it though.

Well I managed to capture it happening even without touching or moving the mouse. Just after pass 15 the IR restarts. Skip to 3:40secs

Could it be your autosave? I know mine starts if it autosaves - the default max autosave is 5 min, but if your system autosaves and 2 mins after you get your Interactive Render going, you're only going to get 3 min before it autosaves again, issuing another restart.
I have my autosave for 15 min precisely because of this, to avoid the restart 5 minutes after.

I had a quick look and it's off. Pretty strange.
