System Information
Operating system: macOS-13.3.1-arm64-arm-64bit 64 Bits
Graphics card: Metal API Apple M1 Ultra 1.2

Blender Version
Broken: version: 3.5.0, branch: blender-v3.5-release, commit date: 2023-03-29 02:56, hash: 1be25cfff18b
Worked: none, tried 2.93, 3.3

Short description of error
after about 100 or so frames render just stops, Blender is still responsive, its not frozen or crashed, render bar just sits at %0. I'm doing motion tracking to get some kitbashed 3d elements into the scene. Plays fine in Eevee in the viewport. This is the error I get: CommandBuffer Failed: cycles_metal_shader_eval_displace. Attached ram usage for last 24 hours, I still have plenty of ram!

Exact steps for others to reproduce the error
I've closed the file and retried, several times, never got a render all the way through.

Restarted computer, tried again, same thing happened but got a different error:

CommandBuffer Failed: cycles_metal_integrator_reset

Refer to the Cycles GPU rendering documentation for possible solutions:

CommandBuffer Failed: cycles_metal_integrator_init_from_camera

Thanks for the report!

Could you please confirm whether this happens with the OpenGL backend enabled instead of Metal (for viewport)? This will help us determine if the issue is caused by the presence of the Metal viewport, while rendering with Metal for Cycles.

Alternatively, would you be able to share the asset you have so we can reproduce locally?

I also notice you are using an add-on which relies on deprecated OpenGL API, I'm curious if running with the Metal backend could mean the add-on is disabled and certain operations or data are missing where they may be expected.

Thanks!
