Short description of error

Cycles starts rendering black frames after random number of nicely rendered frames. The last rendered frame before cycles stops rendering is darker then normal frames.

If I try to continue the rendering on GPU it renders black frames, if I switch to Cycles CPU rendering and then back to GPU rendering it renders normally for a while.

Console:

Cycles shader graph connect: can only connect closure to closure (mix.Color to m
ix_closure.Closure2).

This looks like the same issues as #36986 (CUDA error: Unknown error in cuCtxSynchronize() : does not recover), so I've merged the reports now.

Cheers, yes, sometimes I get this error too.

I am also getting this error. I have to restart blender after every single image rendering. it's making doing an animation very hard. Switching to CPU rendering and back doesn't fix the problem.

EDIT: my problem seems to be similar but it's not limited to GPU rendering, CPU rendering also produces black frames randomly. I do not get any errors in the terminal/console. My bug seems to be in 2.71 and dev builds as I do not get the black frame bug in 2.69.

has been happening for me in 2.71, just in my most recent two versions of a scene, trying to determine what differences might be responsible
