As the title says - when I write my output files to my local disk, all's well. When I write them to a network drive, I get empty files. I have this problem only with Karma. Mantra, Arnold and Redshift work fine.

Can anyone repro/confirm?

H19.0.383, Windows10

cheers, Jasper

: I just noticed this doesn't happen when writing out jpgs - but it does when writing exrs.

I can't repo/confirm, but can you map a drive letter to your network location?

Hi Enivob,

that is already the case. Weirdly enough, I've found out that when rendering to another network drive - a slightly older one - it works.

Our network guy has checked and says both are running SMB as file sharing protocol. (I'm mentioning this as in another thread there is a discussion about usd not being able to write to SMB networks)

Bump... this is still having us scratching our heads. Karma is working fine, Deadline is working fine, everything's working fine. But file output as exr gives empty files when rendering to a mapped network drive.
