How many movies? At some point the hard drive will become a limiting factor. You will particualrly see skips when movies load and hit the loop point at the end of the clip. <br><br>Playing any movie back at 10 times the normal speed will not be very smooth.
<br><br>You can try to load the movies into RAM with the 'ram' message on OSX or make a RAM disk and copy movies in there if you have the memory.<br><br><div><span class="gmail_quote">On 5/15/07, <b class="gmail_sendername">

hello,<br><br>im still working on the project using many videos,<br>i've got problem with frame rate acuracy.<br><br>i test with only 1 movie, so the CPU are very low.<br>i'm using apple intermediate codec.<br>gem fps is set to 50, video speed is varing from about 1 to 10
<br><br>the problem is that visually, the video does not play very smooth.<br><br>while testing time between frame with :<br><br>gemhead<br>|<br>t b b<br>| \<br>realtime<br>|<br>print<br><br>i've got average number 20ms (so the fps is 50), but i can have lot's of diferences from 1 frame to one other.
<br>i can have 1 frame at 35ms, and the other at 5ms etc<br>so the result is not very good.<br><br>changing codec / size of the movie does not really change results<br><br>i really don't know what i could do to improve performances.
<br><br>does anyone have an idea?<br><br>thanks<br>Cyrille<br><br><br>_______________________________________________<br>GEM-dev mailing list<br><a href="mailto:GEM-dev@iem.at">GEM-dev@iem.at</a><br><a href="http://lists.puredata.info/listinfo/gem-dev">
