    unable to allocate memory…

    Posted by Simon Roughan on July 10, 2007 at 6:24 am

    Happening quite often lately. I open the programme, and scroll through a clip or the timeline, then the window goes black and I get the above message and have to exit application.
    Whats up?

    Thanks in advance

    Simon,

    What’s the rest of the error message? It should give more information. Failing that can you have a look in the Console and see what’s reported there.

    What video format, duration etc?

    There are many things that could cause this: corrupt application data/files, Windows updates etc.
