But I never used it for a very long time. Now I need something to be mixing video on the background for more than an hour and pd crashes after 5/10 minutes.<div>In my previous script, it could run for longer than that, without a problem. that's why I'm thinking the constant and fast opening of files might be doing some harm (that's what's new in the current script).</div><div><br></div><div>Using one pix_filme per movie is something I'm contemplating. The problem is this: I'm gonna be generating visuals for more than 8 tracks, each track with more than 5 clips per layer. I'm affraid this will take too much memory!</div><div><br></div><div>I got 0.41.4-extended-rc4. The first time I runned it, GEM wasn't loaded but it looks now is ok. I thing some stuff was
missing but now I'm unsure. I'll try with it and will give some feedback later.</div><div><br></div><div>Thanks for the help</div><div><br></div><div>Daniel<br><br>--- On <b>Fri, 6/12/09, Hans-Christoph Steiner <i><hans@at.or.at></i></b> wrote:<br><blockquote style="border-left: 2px solid rgb(16, 16, 255); margin-left: 5px; padding-left: 5px;"><br>From: Hans-Christoph Steiner <hans@at.or.at><br>Subject: Re: [PD] pd_film: intensive use crashes PD<br>To: "Daniel Almeida" <int86@yahoo.com><br>Cc: Pd-list@iem.at<br>Date: Friday, June 12, 2009, 6:51 PM<br><br><div id="yiv1581301350"><div><br></div><div>Try Pd-extended 0.41.4 that was just released.
