sorry for image, I didn't figure out how to copy stuff from the cmd on these windows machines...

I also get this on Arch Linux. I see you have two GPUs. I do, too. I wonder if it's picking the wrong one...

Dude, I figured it out...well for me anyway. -33 means "invalid device". You need to figure out which device is invalid and SKIP it. ./profanity.x64 --benchmark -s 1; did it for me because the second device was invalid. My clue that it was invalid is because the name (the part after GPU1:) was nonsense and it changed each time which tells me it was using uninitialized memory (a bug in the code).

have done that, but now it fails with the same issue as here https://github.com/johguse/profanity/issues/51

I think that's a step up. Congratulations! Progress to #51. I'm guessing that's more of an OpenCL configuration issue.

I don't think this issue should be closed. The application reads from uninitialized memory...bad news.
