Multiple videos in one track - Crash?

[scullionj]

Has anyone encountered a limit with the number of separate video files you can manage to have in one video track in PT 10 HD? I've never really had issues until today, and I couldn't say for sure, but this might be the most I've tried to do (close to 50), and the session is crashing on me. All the videos are quite short, no more than 30 seconds. Any thoughts are appreciated. Most recent crash report is below:

I've had corrupted video files crash the system before
Don't know if that's your problem

[scullionj]

I don't -think- it's corrupted videos...they all seem to play fine on their own, nothing looks weird when examining them in MediaInfo and Quicktime. I could try to convert them again, maybe, but something tells me that it's a limitation to the number of separate video clips you can have in a session/on one video track.

[CygnusX-1Bk2]

How big is the video track in the edit window? That plays a part. Also if it's set to display frames or blocks. With that many you may want to set it to mini/blocks.

[DetroitT]

Activity monitor reads how much memory pro tools is needing.
OS 10.6.8 & PT's 10 32 bit has a limit.
As do the Gforce video card(s).

Are the Video and Audio files on separate Fast drives?
