Resolume Forum

I'm having random crashes while using Resolume and the mask overlay technique described here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rP2bnQqLAvI. I'm using highly detailed 1080p visuals (fractals and gobo masks from MotionLoops) and feeding in the fractals into the gobo layers (essentially using the gobos as transitions) and it crashes sometimes randomly, other times when I transition to another fractal or gobo. I'm using Resolume 5.04, QuickTime 7.79.80.95, and all loops are DXV3 encoded.

I can't seem to figure out what the problem is, I never get a warning with RAM I just get lower frame rates with combinations that are ridiculously detailed and then crashes out of nowhere. I generally get around 150 FPS with most combinations and as little as 15-30 FPS with insane ones.

It's crashing in Quicktime, so that would indicate not all your files are DXV3.

Found a set of visuals that wasn't DXV3 encoded and running them through MPEG Streamclip now. All the others I got from MotionLoops were already encoded so I guess I didn't think to check that. Will post the results from tonight's testing. Thanks for the help!

So far that seems to have fixed it and my FPS is pretty much constantly higher than 150 now, YES!
