Are you getting this error when you launch the mantra renderer?
Warning: invalid .mplay_lock file detected
Warning: invalid .mplay_lock file detected
mantra: Could not open imager
The problem is caused by your firewall….
Set full permissions to Houdini/bin/mantra.exe and it will disappear.
invalid mplay_lock file issue!...finally found the cause

I'm using safety.net firewall….
I wouldn't say its incompatible…. but the mplayer calls mantra as a subroutine I guess….. and it only asks to set permissions for the mplayer… not mantra.exe…. and all we need to do is set the permissions for mnatra.exe to full and it works….
I'm just happy I solved it..it was driving me insane!
