  I'm not a gem expert but I think I've seen this bug, it might not come 
from pix_film, but from file loading in Gem, if I'm right, loading your 
patch and the video in the same directory should not crash. Using the 
last Gem binary snapshot or compiling it yourself might also resolve the 
problem.
