I’ve got to say thanks for creating the movie bin comp. It is excellent, drag and drop file’s, 3 outputs, hover preview - awsome. But again it just crashed on me probably from the same problem I had this summer with my movie bins. I’m thinking if you guys check out the dmp file and determine that it’s the same problem that only I seem to have then maybe I’ll try a full reinstall of my OS. I’m reading files from a hardware raid 0 array maybe that has something to do with it.
Also I noticed that the slider’s are not consistently updating the position marker in the viewport. The value’s change (you can see the change in the movie) but the slider is not updating properly. I did load a slider tuik component to see if it had the problem but it functioned fine. TouchCrashFTE077.16410.1.dmp (121 KB)
This crash is occurring in the quicktime library. I forget where we left it before, but you should be using the LIBAVCODEC library for playback if you can. It’s far better in terms of performance. It’s also the more traveled path now, so it should have less bugs.
I did try switching to libvcodec and I don’t think it crashed after that (I’ll test some more). During the summer I did try and use the libvcodec with my movie bin and it crashed even more quickly but maybe now it will work.
So I just did some testing and had some mixed results. When I dragged and dropped about 16 particular files TD quit immediately. Then I dragged only a couple in at a time and worked until I dropped a particular file. After tjat I tried a whole different batch of files (avi’s this time) and it worked even after a I dragged and dropped the “bad” file. Below are the dump files. This was all done with LIBAVCODEC.

I know you’ve sent me media before, maybe can you send me a new batch I can try out again? This is also crashing in the movie decoding, in libav this time, which is strange.
I just found a bug in the Movie CPU Cache code. Do you have this turned on (value above 0)? Can you tell me if your crashes go away if you turn this down to 0?
So far so good. I turned down the movie CPU cache to 0 (from 128). It didn’t crash after playing with the movie bin for a few minutes. I also noticed the fps indicator was staying at a steady 60 fps, just before I turned off the cache it was jumping around 56-60 fps when I increased all three speeds in the movie bin.
