Rick G Posted September 28, 2017 Share Posted September 28, 2017 I was resizing 8 images to 50 px tall, remove the EXIF data and saving as JPG files that would overwrite the originals. After 15 minutes it was still spinning so I attempted to cancel the job. That could not be done. It put me in an endless loop with a dialog box allowing me to quit or cancel but nothing worked. I had to use Task Mangler to exit the program. I will keep testing to see if that combination is a problem but the report here is the endless loop Affinity Designer 2.2.2075 & beta 2.3.1.2212 Affinity Photo 2.2.2075 beta 2.3.1.2212Affinity Publisher 2.2.2075 & beta 2.3.1.2212 Windows 11 Pro Version 22H2 OS build 22621.1928 Processor Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-10700 CPU @ 2.90GHz 2.90 GHz Installed RAM 16.0 GB (15.7 GB usable) System type 64-bit operating system, x64-based processor Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Staff Sean P Posted September 29, 2017 Staff Share Posted September 29, 2017 Hi Rick, Please see the thread harrym has linked to. This is a known issue and is with development to be fixed. Unticking Parallel Processing should help! Rick G 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rick G Posted September 29, 2017 Author Share Posted September 29, 2017 I unlinked parallel processing and the last batch went fine.

Rick G Posted October 8, 2017 Author Share Posted October 8, 2017 I just had this issue again in 1.6.0.84. It hung again. I tried doing it again and it just flashed. Only when I went to close the program did it inform me that there was a batch running and the program could not close until the batch was finished One should be able to break out of a stalled batch and close the program. The only current wa is to use task manager If you start another batch there should be a warning that a batch is already running I must add that after restarting the program. multi process batches worked quickly as expected Affinity Designer 2.2.2075 & beta 2.3.1.2212 Affinity Photo 2.2.2075 beta 2.3.1.2212Affinity Publisher 2.2.2075 & beta 2.3.1.2212 Windows 11 Pro Version 22H2 OS build 22621.1928 Processor Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-10700 CPU @ 2.90GHz 2.90 GHz Installed RAM 16.0 GB (15.7 GB usable) System type 64-bit operating system, x64-based processor Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rick G Posted October 9, 2017 Author Share Posted October 9, 2017 Another batch failure this morning. Are there any logs / data or screencasts you might need to fix it?

Mark Ingram Posted October 9, 2017 Share Posted October 9, 2017 Interesting that you've got 8 processor threads, I wonder whether if I tried it here, I would get a failure on greater than 12 jobs (as I have a hexacore Xeon). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

harrym Posted October 12, 2017 Share Posted October 12, 2017 Hi Rick, I'm using the lowest spec Lenovo (hence jokey bit at end of previous reply) running Win 10 64. I had applied two very simple macros (no resizing) on tiffs 1. Changing to inches 2. Adding denoise and sharpen adjustments saving as .afphoto A while ago I did a batch resize but that was on small jpgs so don't think that counts. 50px is very small though what is the start size? I can run a test. Regards Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rick G Posted October 12, 2017 Author Share Posted October 12, 2017 I take a series of photos and resize them all to 500px tall I remove metadata although that does not seem to make a difference The 500 px JPG files overwrite the ones in the original folder I have not tried it on today's 1.6.0.85 beta but will try it later today I hope they at least put something in there to kill a batch ... task manager is not a great option Affinity Designer 2.2.2075 & beta 2.3.1.2212 Affinity Photo 2.2.2075 beta 2.3.1.2212Affinity Publisher 2.2.2075 & beta 2.3.1.2212 Windows 11 Pro Version 22H2 OS build 22621.1928 Processor Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-10700 CPU @ 2.90GHz 2.90 GHz Installed RAM 16.0 GB (15.7 GB usable) System type 64-bit operating system, x64-based processor Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
