PVRTexTool 3.4.1 (PowerVR SDK 3.2) ETC2 encoder problem

I am trying a latest version of PVRTexTool.

I found some problems about ETC2 encoder.


  1. The abnormal block-like noise appeared in result of ETC2 encoding with slow option.

    (PVRTexTool CL,GUI,Lib)

    Example: PVRTexToolCLI.exe -i input.png -o output.pvr -f ETC2_RGB -q etcslow

    This noise appeared in result of encoding some dark images.

    It is not a normal encoding noise.

    However, when I tried ETC2 encoding with fast option, I can’t find this abnormal encoding noise.


  2. Memory leak occurs in ETC2 encoding process.

    (PVRTexTool GUI, Lib)

    I found that memory leak occurs in ETC2 encoding process when I encoded the large number of images.


  3. Degrade occurred in the PVRTexlib pvrtexture::CPVRTexture(const void* pTexture).

    Access Violation occurred with high probability.

    SDK 3.0: good.

    SDK 3.2: bad.

    This problem does not occur in the pvrtexture::CPVRTexture(const char* szFilePath).



    I expect that these problems are solved in the next version.

Hi Shimizu,



I am investigating this issue currently, and will let you know what I find.

Hi Shimizu,



Sorry for the delay in responding to this, I’m afraid it fell through the cracks.



I’m afraid I can’t reproduce the issues you’ve listed. If this is still an issue for you, could you provide a code snippet or a minimal reproduction example that has the issue?



Thanks,

Tobias
