<br>small clips for an installation. she had it test running the whole night<br>and reported that is was becoming extremly slow when she had a look at it<br>in the morning. i had no possibility to check the stuff but i guess that
<br>it is because the memory got full by constantly loading the clips.<br><br>now the questions:<br><br>when pix_video is loading another clip, is it freeing the memory which<br>took the clip played before or does it stay in the memory ?
<br><br>when the same clip is played again after playing another one is it loaded<br>again into the memory or is the one already loaded before used again ?<br><br>is there a method to clear the memory taken over by all this loaded
<br>films without restarting pd ?<br><br>best<br><br>erich<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">
