SaveFrame not working
Mar 25th, 2006, 9:17pm
 
Hello All,

Does anybody have experience using the saveframe command?

Am using processing 109 on an imac G5, and saveframe hangs.
Even when saving small 100x100 pixels image (about 30k), it needs over 2 minutes per frame. Larger images don't appear to work at all.

Is this normal? Any work around?

Thanks very much!

Michael

Hmm, downloading 109 now.  I know that I have been successful with saveframe on 108 and 110.  And I could get about 1 frame saved per second at 1280x854 so lemme see if 109 causes me problems.  


UPDATE------------------------------------------------

Well, I just ran a sketch in 109 and saveFrame seems to be working predictably for me.  Was getting faster than 1 frame saved per second at 800x600.  So, sadly, I cannot be of any assistance it seems.  Perhaps post your code?

Check http://processing.org/discourse/yabb_beta/YaBB.cgi?board=Programs;action=display;num=1142009104;start=0#11

If you're using JAVA2D on a Mac, it seems to be a problem.

k, i think this is probably related to another bug report that i could never confirm. so we'll track this issue here:
http://dev.processing.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=189

if anyone can help me track this down with an example that consistently causes trouble, that'd be great. i'll close this thread so we can follow up using the bugs db.
