Extremely strange... It looks like a crash when trying to log a "Failed to allocate raw image !" warning in the image decoder, meaning it is, yet again, a memory allocation failure issue... There is something really, really, really fishy on your system (*), and I just cannot figure out what it is ! Just to make sure, should you have set the viewer affinity with the Windows task manager like I described before, you do have the viewer's "MatinThreadAffinity" debug setting set to its default 0 value (i.e. affinity not set by the viewer itself, which would of course conflict), right ? (*) Maybe a rogue malware DLL... Did you scan your system for virus ? |

Yes Henry, that's what I also think, something weird. Yes, I did all what you proposed, including the affinity settings. Actually I did that already for my DAW but hadn't it done for the CV as I thought it was enough to turn the decode threads down to just one. I did that, btw, as I the CPU has gotten too high when the viewer uses more threads and that gave me crackles playing my Piano VST. Now I've set also the affinity for the CV and I changed it from before. I have a Quad-Core SMT with 8 CPU`s shown in the Taskmanager? Maybe it was not a good idea to narrow it down to only CPU 0 instead of 0+1 for the CV and the rest for the DAW. I observe how it will work now! THanks a lot for the fast help always, Henri!! |

In my About I see Version 21H1, OS build 19043.1706 - so I think that is quite recent A fresh install of Windows I will only consider when I get an up-to-date-machine, what I hope to avoid as long as possible as I have a feeling that the industry is at the doors to get rid of the old bottle-neck and first wants to sell off the "old" stuff.. I may be wrong,.. I have a good feeling now. I thought it would have been my RAM but now I'm hoping it was the Affinity setting that caused the troubles as they to the most appeared only when I zoomed with more like 20 people or something. This weird crash yesterday might have been also due to that.. I had that kinda crash quite often when I tp'ed somewhere and back and forth too fast, before letting the graphics rezzed again. Maybe due to the speed stepping? BTW - is it a good idea to have that within the automation.lua when using only one of the cores? |

One shot into the blue: If you see random memory allocation errors on Windows, check the paging file. https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/troub ... ion-errors You could try to see if tweaking the paging size limits as recommended there helps. |

Hi kathrine, thank you very much for that link! Now I'm a bit confused. I have 16GB RAM. When I go into these settings, Windows tells me that it recommends a size of 2943 MB but on that webseite Microsoft says: "Select Custom size, and then set the "Initial size" and "Maximum size" values for the paging file. We recommend that you set the initial size to 1.5 times the amount of RAM in the system." I'm no English native, so , to double-check: MS wants met to make the swap file as big as 24GB? Is that correct? How is your setting, if I may ask? |
