nvapi NVAPI Error in WATCHOUT 7 - "Failed to Set Display Color Data"

[Nima Eshghipour]

Hi everyone,

My name is Nima Eshghipour, and I am currently working with WATCHOUT 7.4.1. I’ve come across an issue and would appreciate any guidance.

When I enable the "Render with Maximum Quality" option in the Device Properties window, I receive the following error message:

NVAPI display id XXXXX: Failed to set display color data!  
Error: NVAPI_NOT_SUPPORTED

I suspect this might be related to my NVIDIA drivers or settings, but I’m not sure how to resolve it. Has anyone encountered this issue before, and is there a known solution or workaround?

Thank you for any advice or assistance!

Best regards,
Nima Eshghipour

Would you mind sharing the specs of your setup.  I get this error when I use my laptop as a stand alone producer and runner.  When I try and change bit depth, color space, etc, of an output the error presents.  I believe this because the Nvidia driver on my laptop is a consumer grade driver.  Meaning I don't have access to controls like topology and when I try and change the display those controls don't exist.  

That's my theory.

Hi Nima,

As far I ralised Watchout detects you are using a nVidia card that doesn't support EDID manager, for example if you are using as a Runner a Laptop with a nVidia graphic card.
