Hi everyone,
I recently did a clean installation of ZED SDK 4.2.1 on a system with an NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5050 (Blackwell architecture) and I’m unable to optimize any AI models. The process fails immediately with the following error:
neural_depth_3.6 => 2
System specs:
ZED SDK: 4.2.1
GPU: NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5050 (Blackwell)
Driver: 576.88
CUDA (system): 12.9
CUDA (ZED Diagnostic): 12.1.66
OS: Windows 11
CPU: Intel Core Ultra 7 165H
What I tried:
Running ZED Diagnostic Tool both from GUI and CMD as Administrator
Running -nrlo and -nrlo_plus flags from command line
Clean reinstall of ZED SDK
The ZED Diagnostic shows a green checkmark for SDK, CUDA, Processor and Camera Test, but AI MODELS only shows an info icon (not a checkmark), which confirms the optimization is failing.
I found a similar thread about RTX 5090 with ZED SDK 4.2.5. Is ZED SDK 4.2.x simply incompatible with Blackwell GPUs for model optimization? Should I upgrade to 5.x?
Any guidance would be appreciated. Thanks!
