should I not use Processing?
Apr 1st, 2007, 8:08am  
Hi there,

I have some large video files that I want to play, according to a sensor input.  I am not doing anything with the videos other than playing them.  They are around 300MB in size, each.  When I try to play just one, I get an out of memory error.  I increased the memory to 2000 MB, and nothing happened - blank applet window.

Is this not something that Processing can handle?  I know the videos are large, but if I'm just using P for playback, should it not work?  Any other ideas?

Thanks!

//Cynthia

where are the movie-files located? are you passing a full path to the files to Movie()?

sounds like Movie is trying to load the files into RAM ...
