Hello,
I have a problem loading images into the pix_image object. It seems that anytime I load a picture it fills the RAM memory, even if I load the same image every time (I just need one image at a time). Is there a way to empty the memory when I change the image? There is a point when the memory is full and PD shuts down.
I´m attaching the patch.
Any ideas?
Cheers,
Hey Enrique,
In cases like this I use the "open" and "save" messages to pix_buffer.
You can be sure that the images get replaced, and you can arrange your images in RAM how you want them.
In this case you don't use pix_image at all, but pix_buffer_read to show the buffer.

Hey Ben,
I don´t understand how to use the "open" and "save" messages to pix_buffer..
I´ve been trying to load jpgs with pix_buffer without pix_image but the problem of memory is the same. I just can empty the RAM when I close PD.
Any ideas?

Hello Enrique
very quickly, before moving to Valencia where we make a performance
this week with Hortense.
You can use: 1 / pix_buffer or 2 / gemframebuffer
I've made two quick examples (too fast) in this patch, but you will
understand the process.
best

[counter] cannot create.
please be more specific about your setup:
- OS
- Gem-version, Pd-version
- the order of magnitude of number of images you are trying to load
- size of images
- amount of RAM increased each time you load an image
does the problem persist if you disconnect [pix_image] from whatever comes afterwards?
