Hi,
my IPR Window doesn't work, black screen and no info in the IPR Window command line.
But when I start the render in the C4D picture viewer, it works.
I have Nvidia Quadro K620 with latest driver.
May you help me? Thank You

Was the IPR already open? Can you start a new, empty scene, create a sphere and a skydome light, set the verbosity level to Info, and then open the Arnold IPR window?

Do you have the viewport (Editor Window) open? There's a known limitation in the plugin, the IPR Window does not update when the viewport is not visible.
This probably isn't the issue, but check your scale and zoom on your IPR. If it's a very small number then this will happen. I am not sure why, but this happened to me. I suspect that for whatever reason it was set like that and I accidental saved it into my new.c4d file.
Peter - Since we're on this subject, specifically my IPR zoom and scale are/were set to their minimums (zero and something like 0.01 respectively) I am pretty sure I would not have set these up that way, though anything is possible. If this is the case of Matteo as well, then maybe a bug?
I remember an issue in the past where the scale input was in focus when opening the IPR window, so typing or scrolling messed it up. But I think I've fixed that, at least I did not meet this problem recently. If you can reproduce it, just let me know and I'll take a look.
For the next few weeks I'll be working in After Effects, but next time I'm in c4d I'll try to reproduce and report back.
Thank You Shawn, it works! I don't know why my IPR scale was 0% and then black screen on IPR! Now I set scale 100% and render works!
