What do I need to run the plugins OpenCL dolphin?
I run dolphin in windows 7 64 bit on a c2d e8400 and nvidia 9600gt. I installed the 195.62 nvidia drivers which has the following changes:
New in Version 195.62
* Adds GPU-acceleration for smoother HD video online with the new Adobe Flash 10.1 beta. Learn more here.

Are supposed to support OpenCL, but I get error when running Dolphin, Extensions OpenCL errors.
What do I need to run OpenCL?
I tried two binary versions with OpenCL, one complied by unknownforce and the other by orleans. Neither of those worked for me. I did check everest under Display/GPGPU and it lists
CUDA Geforce 9800GT
Direct3d Nvidia 9800GT
OpenCL Geforce 9800GT
When I run an openCL dolphin exe it loads and lists games, but running a game causes a dialog to pop up saying dolphin has stopped working.

I tried copying the nvcuda.dll from /system32 to the dolphin root dir just incase that made a difference. Didn't but figured it worth a try.
Judging by the posts of the forums, openCL is still quite buggy, was hoping to try it nontheless so I too was wondering if there were any special steps to getting OpenCL to work.
I got a lot of black textures when i use the OpenCL-versions(r4791 from Orleans) with dolphin r4797 from Orleans.
Erverything is fine when i use the normal version, but its a lot slower on my laptop.
I have the latest nvidia-driver installed (195.62).
Laptop-Specs:
Intel 2*2,2GHz
Geforce GT230M (Cuda 1GB)
4GB RAM
Yeah, I couldn't get the OpenCL version to run even if I have the newest drivers and Geforce 8800 GT which should be compatible with OpenCL.

You have a radeon , so... you need to install an Opencl DRIVER 1ST ,THEN amd ati StreamSDK ,then you'll be all set ^^
Excuse me but in the OpenCl ATi page it doesen't appear any sign of opencl driver, that page lead only to the ATi Stream Download... anyway i've installed the 9.12 hotfix and then the ati stream and with the Orlean's build 4987 in OpenCL it works... but there are some glitches.. Even if the plugis is setted as OpenGL or D3D9, can someone explain me what's happening?

With the OpenCL support the speed emualation is awesome! But there's always, in every game, this kind of problem..
EDIT: I've forgotten to say that my gpu is ATi Mobility Radeon HD 4570
Cant answer that , but try 10.1 drivers anyway !
To check if your driver is OpenCL capable and enabled , just install GPU Caps Viewer !
Hmm. I am the onliest, where Dolphin runs much slower in OpenCL version?
AMD Athlon64 x2 6000+
Geforce 8600 GTS
I can't install the 10.1 Catalyst because for now there's no way to make them work on a mobility radeon, because it's a little bit different from a normal ati radeon card.. Anyway i think that maybe for me and KarstenS is an installation problem, but i dunno how to solve..
