Hi All
I'm using a combination of coll and makefilename in order to output a list of quicktime clips to pix_film. I'm using coll to load a list of 4 clips and then outputting them through makefilename into pix_film, the first clip loads in fine and it play's, however, when I hit the next message on coll to output the second clip filename, nothing happens. I am getting no error message in the pd window, it just says that the second clip has been loaded with no errors, but I cannot play back the clip in the GEM window. When I try to load in the third clip PD crashes out (constantly). The clips are all quite small (under 2mb) so my question is, do I need to reset pix_film in some way after each clip has finished playing so that it will play the next clip? I've attached a screenshot of my patch so you can see what I'm doing.
Thanks and regards Donal

I'm not a gem expert but I think I've seen this bug, it might not come from pix_film, but from file loading in Gem, if I'm right, loading your patch and the video in the same directory should not crash. Using the last Gem binary snapshot or compiling it yourself might also resolve the problem.
You can also try pix_movie, they sometimes behave differently, so
that one bug isn't present in the other object.

Hi,
Just a quick check but do all the movies have the same codec and have
you tested that they load okay by themselves?

Yes, all works fine (no problem to load movies). Here, same codec for
the 4 movies : JPEG.
