fcp7+stills ="error out of memory"- on i7 imac/12gb/w/1024mb graphics card? - no way!
i am working on an 27" i7 imac/2.93 w/12gb ram/1024mb ATI Radeon HD 5750 graphics card
i'm using fcp7
in fcp, under system setting, memory/cache-my still cache is set to 100%
i'm cutting an opening.
i have 150 still images.
some the client provided.
some i shot.
some of the images are large-5mb
i opened a pro res lt 1920x1080/24p timeline.
i dropped all the images onto the time line.
each still image dropped in at 10sec.
i then changed all the images to 12fps.
i rendered and all went well.
i went to order the images.
i rendered and i suddenly got an "error: out of memory"!
how is that possible?
if the stills are too large, how small do i need to go?
and this opening will be projected on a 40' screen at a hotel in may.
i made a very similar opening on last years project that had 180+ images and cut on a 2010 17" mbp and never had an issue.
very frustrating.
what am i not doing right?
any and all thoughts appreciated.
be well.
