Resolume "Freeze" Problem, Divx?

Hi,
I was using Resolume 2.4 over the weekend at a gig, I got a screen "freeze" every 20 minutes or so. No crash just everything stopped.
I switched between V 2.3 and 2.4 and got the same problem each time
I have encoded all my loops as with the DivX Fast Motion Codec, as I find the quality on Cinepak is a little ropey, does Resolume have problems wirth DivX?
My Spec is:
Traktor Dj Console MIDI controller
DELL 6400 Dual Processor, 1 Gig Ram with 256MB ATI MOBILITY RADEON X1400
Any help greatly appreciated...

Hi,
Well a few years back i would have said that DivX is normally not suitable for live perfromances. But a lot has changed and i haven't actually tested DivX for a while. So if you won't notice any speed problems then use it.
So i don't know if this bug is related to divx, but what you can try is running with cinepak footage as a test and see wether this same bug happens as well.
Only then we discover where this bug is related to.
I will have a go with this codec to see how it feels.
Cheers
Edwin

Hi again,
could you give me a link to where i can find the codec that you used. And what render settings and tool did you used to create your divx files.

my render settings are,
Divx Fast Motion Clean Codec, 400X300, Keyframe every 3 seconds, 3000 kiolbits/sec data rate,
I have the latest stable Storm codec pack installed,
Thanks for the help, i will try a test with Cinepak..

my brief experiences with divx, mpeg4, and resolume 2.4 - is it will almost always freeze... sometimes takes a while (20minutes max for me) but divx and mpeg4 is in my opinion just not suitable for resolume
