Another day another bug. This one is really strange. A while ago i took some outlaw star episodes on Dvd and converted em to avi's using the tempenc compressor, which later i found sucked. So naturallly Ive been using Vdub to further compress the AVI's that TMPGEnc produced. Everything ran smoothly for the first 5 episodes. Then on every episode after #5 i kept getting a msg from my computer saying my virtual memory was low.
Naturally the process was halted and the files spit out by virtual dub were corrupted. I freed a ton of virtual memory by clearing off an additional 5 gigs of hard drive space (my master harddrive is 20 gigs total). I then restarted my computer and made sure all extraneous applications were closed. I ran virtual dub and sure enough my computer once again told me i was out of virtual memory (at the same exact frame to boot).
Once again I would like to emphasize that the first 5 episodes used the same exact compressors and had the same exact settings and both the imported and final files were almost exactly the same size as the respective files that shorted out my computers virtual memory. In other words I made no changes that could have caused complications.
I am using a DivX 5.0.3 video compressor and a Lame MP3 audio compressor. These compressors ran without a hitch with the first 5 episodes.
