  • RAM and crashing problems with large Batch or “Render Video”

    Posted by Lu Nelson on October 29, 2009 at 12:28 pm

    Hi all,

    does anyone know what kind of setting I might be missing?

    I’m trying to process video clips in Photoshop (I have a particular filter that only exists for PS, not AE), and all types of “Render Video” export I choose result in crashes after a few hundred frames. I’ve now resorted to pre-rendering the clips as image sequences out of AE and having PS do a Batch Process on them (which is twice as slow, but I though perhaps less prone to crashing), but there too, it stops after maybe 500 frames saying it’s out of RAM.

    What gives? I’m using CS4 10.0.1 on a MacPro with 8GB of RAM

    Thanks,

    LMN

    Seem to have solved my problem…

    held down option command shift at startup of PS and checked “Yes” to erase the settings file

    Also updated the plugin I was using; one or the other seems to have worked
