Hi again,

after a little more digging I'm very confused by the whole thing, I also can't load a particular 4GB QT. All these files are created the same, from finalcut pro, mplayer -identify returns the same info for all of the clips... I could stick the 4GB file up somewhere on an ftp server, but would anyone want to download it to test??

also I'm getting a crash using gem when creating a new window once and a while (on linux, using a CVS update from today) Here is the gdb output:

Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault. [Switching to Thread 16384 (LWP 4804)] 0x401a7f1a in malloc_consolidate () from /lib/libc.so.6 (gdb) where #0 0x401a7f1a in malloc_consolidate () from /lib/libc.so.6 #1 0x401a7af9 in _int_malloc () from /lib/libc.so.6 #2 0x401a716a in calloc () from /lib/libc.so.6 #3 0x08093e88 in getbytes ()

another thing I noticed is that I've had to change the pix_texture's to "mode 0" to get video showing on all sides of non-square objects (using pix_film). Although I can load these other two mytery clips with pix_movie I can't wrap them on a sphere because I can't set the pix_texture in pix_movie to "mode 0" So only the upper left pixel of the file gets textured. (as is the same with pix_film and pix_texture if I don't send the "mode 0" message.

for verbosity's sake Gem reports:

pix_film: GEM: pix_film:: unable to open file /bigdisk/capture_backup/ride/gem_source/slowridesingle.mov

pix_movie: opening /bigdisk/capture_backup/ride/gem_source/slowridesingle.mov with format 1908 GEM: pix_filmNEW: Loaded file: /bigdisk/capture_backup/ride/gem_source/slowridesingle.mov with 25993 frames (1024x512)

Whats this about "pix_filmNEW:" vs "pix_film::" ?

Thanks

Ben

Hey all,

I just did a frech update of the gem CVS and I can't get pix_film to open one particular QT file. Its a normal Still-jpg encoded QT. It opens fine in pix_movie and mplayer.

The only thing odd about it is that its 13GB... Maybe too big?

Is there a size limit for pix_film movies?

Thanks Ben
