Topic: Long video question

Questo argomento è obsoleto e potrebbe contenere informazioni obsolete o errate.

Can vdj play long video. I have a video that's 60 minutes long but I need to pause it and ff it to cut parts out. Is it possible to load as 1 file or do I need to split it up. If I need to split it what's the longest splits I can use? I loaded onwe to test it and it froze vdj. Any help I would appreciate

Yes I sometimes use VDJ to play movies at home as it plays almost any format, aspect ratios can be a little of if not set up properly, or subtitle support.

It just does not load up the waveform, but that's ok.
 

can adjust max load setting in peformance tab to adjust for allowing to load whole video in memory (shows waveform), or not load in memory (no waveform). A 60 mins video, you better have tons of ram and ultra fast pc though ;)

Memory : XXX mins .. in performance settings. Default is 15 mins .
 

I have 16 gigs of memory, and 200 min set in performance, but it will only load half of the waveform, of an 80 min video. What's up with that?
 

not sure... I have never tried to load a video that long before.. so what your telling me is 16 gigs won't cut it.. :(
 

Yes, the whole song loads, it's just the waveform only loads halfway.
 

It depends on your system and the settings in config/ performance/ memory. If there is set for example "infinite" , all of the avaliable ram is being used. No matter if it is audio or video. rest of the file is convertet "on the fly".
 

I think, that is because of the limitations of 32 bit applications. They are just able to use 2 GB of memory 4 GB at max. but therefore a special "programming" is necessary (LAA flag - and I don't know if VDJ has it sat. But I think so.). So it doesn't matter if you are using 4, 8 or 16 GB memory. 4 GB is max for 32 bit apps.

Most 32-bit software will still function because of a Microsoft emulation layer. This emulation layer, known as Windows on Windows 64 or WoW64, enables 32-bit programs to run as though on a 32-bit version of Windows by translating instructions passing in and out of 32-bit applications into 64-bit instructions. Emulated programs act as though they are running on an x86 computer and operate within the 2 GB of virtual memory that a 32-bit version of Windows allocates to every process. However, despite Wow64, 32-bit programs on 64-bit versions of Windows Vista and Windows 7 cannot take advantage of the larger 64-bit address spaces or wider 64-bit registers on 64-bit processors.

Yes, 32-bit applications limits is one thing.
The other is the amount of UNCOMPRESSED data your RAM can hold.
Please keep in mind that when you load a file (and you see the waveform loading) this is the progress of VirtualDj uncompressing the data and loading it into RAM.

So, a 100MB compressed video file is way much bigger into RAM ;)
 

You are right. I left that part, because I think that has been statet often enough.
 

Any chance of VDJ 8 being 64 bit?
 

Yes, there's probably a 50-50 chance :P
 

or maybe 40:60...
