My guess is because pix_buffer stores uncompressed frames, which are
much bigger. But I could be wrong.

Hi, just have rebuilt one of my patches to fetch single videoframes not
from harddisc but from RAM with the pix_buffer objects. It works
great, about 20 times faster - the problem is I can`t load more
than 960 frames of Quicktime DV PAL in RAM and the 2 GB of RAM are
full.... this is strange because the hole file of about 4 min. has
about 500 MB.Any idea why?
