hi,
i have some question regarding memory management and pix_video. a friend of mine is using it for playing in some certain order about 70 small clips for an installation. she had it test running the whole night and reported that is was becoming extremly slow when she had a look at it in the morning. i had no possibility to check the stuff but i guess that it is because the memory got full by constantly loading the clips.
now the questions:
when pix_video is loading another clip, is it freeing the memory which took the clip played before or does it stay in the memory ?
when the same clip is played again after playing another one is it loaded again into the memory or is the one already loaded before used again ?
is there a method to clear the memory taken over by all this loaded films without restarting pd ?
best
erich
