OSError: cannot write mode F as PNG

[NickWWWW1]

Hi all,

I am trying to run python run_nerf.py --config configs/leaves_2v.txt --render_only --chunk=16384 --netchunk=32768 with the pre-trained model. However, I receive the following logs:

python run_nerf.py --config configs/leaves_2v.txt --render_only --chunk=16384 --netchunk=32768 Loaded colmap llff (6, 756, 1008, 3) (120, 3, 5) [ 756. 1008. 863.3505] ./data/split_allview_npy/leaves_2view DEFINING BOUNDS NEAR FAR 1.2630987882614135 15.368377685546875 Found ckpts ['./logs/release/leaves_2v/50000.tar'] Reloading from ./logs/release/leaves_2v/50000.tar Not ndc!

The above exception was the direct cause of the following exception:

I am using python 3.8, any suggestions are appreciated!

I'm having the same issue, maybe changing the 186 lines of the run_nerf.py to depth=depth.cpu().numpy().astype(np.uint8)would solve the problem

Hi, I think this is due to the mismatch of data types which happens in newer versions of PIL, and the answer above solves the problem.
