I estimate it’ll take at least two updates—version 21 and likely 21.5—to reach production readiness. I’d love to see a native Metal port, though that may be a significant lift. After a year of testing Apple Silicon privately, I still find it lacking for my needs. I’m eager to reconsider a full switch to Mac for production, but the friction losses and ongoing challenges make it a tough choice. I assume Mac usage remains low compared to Windows and Linux, raising the familiar question of platform support—whether it’s worth equal attention even if the split is 95% to 5%.

The same thing happened to me with the newest apple silicon production build.
The only way to get it back was to restart Houdini.

I cannot get this to work.
Image Magick by itself works. It created a collage of all my images.

I need to compare the images (same filenames) of two folders and their subfolders (recursive) with each other.

Image Magick throws this error:

By default, the image format of 'file' is determined by its magic
number. To specify a particular image format, precede the filename
with an image format name and a colon (i.e. ps:image) or specify the
image type as the filename suffix (i.e. image.ps). Specify 'file' as
'-' for standard input or output.
ERROR: Processed failed with exit code '2'

Please if someone knows how to set this up correctly it would be so much help!
