Windows app fails to launch correctly (RTX 30 series graphics cards)

[kaiwildberger]

I've installed the windows app, and when I launch it either from the shortcut or the executable, no window pops up.
I can see it in task manager, but nowhere else, and I left it for ~15 minutes and it stayed like this.

I have a 3060Ti with 8gb of ram on Windows 10.

Did you try to kill and restart it?

[kaiwildberger]

Yes, I tried restarting avatarify and my computer as well. I also reinstalled to a different location, but none of that made any perceivable difference.

For me on windows 10, a window with my webcam feed pops up and it doesnt respond to anything. I left it for 10 min But it still didnt respond. I tried killing it in task manager, reinstalling everything but still didnt work. And I have a rtx 3070

[alievk]

Thanks for the feedback, we will take this into account. Unfortunately, there's nothing else I could recommend at the moment.

Same here. I'm on a brand new PC with an i9-10900 and an RTX 3070.

If you leave it long enough, the face calibration window comes up, and that works ok, but then it fails to detect a face and eventually hits a runtime error (there's a several minute delay between the "no face detected" and the error:

Could it be pytorch and compute compatibility 8.6 on the 30 series? I left it for 15+ minutes and had a similar experience to what sjhill01 described.

The same problem, tried installing the windows app multiple times, it shows in task manager it is running, and my webcam is has been turned on, but there is no visible app on the screen. In on a brand new Pc with a 3060ti and a Ryzen 5 3600.

I have the same problem. I also tried on Ubuntu 20.04 and had the same issue where it stalled forever at the yaml load.
(5600X and rtx 3070)

SAME. Stalled at yaml.load as well followed by fails to detect a face/cam not responding i910900k rtx 3090

[ochen1]

I'm pretty sure it is stalling at model download rather than yaml load. Try waiting longer perhaps?

Updating title since everybody reporting this seems to be using a RTX 30 series GPU

@sjhill01 @jlaframboise it looks like you're running the Python version of Avatarify, while the creator of this issue is using the Window app version of Avatarify. The good news is that the Python version has been updated, with a potential fix for RTX 30 series GPU owners. Please pull latest master and try again if you're using the Python version.
