VirtualDub out-of-bounds memory access error?
 

When after capturing, im going trhough the videoes with filtering and resizing, the VD has started to crash some 70% after starting to convert. I get the following error message:

" An out-of-bounds memory access (access violation) occurred in module 'huffyuv_mt'... ...reading address .. "

I`m using the virtualdub from this site.

Anyone have any suggestions?

With Regards.

Did you try using non-multithreaded (MT) Huffyuv?

trying now, i gad captured already 4-5 hours of video with MT, but cant use it. Very messy codec to use with virtualdub it seems.

Yeah, MT is great for post-capture processing to another intermediary codec, but somewhat lousy for capturing. The multithreading doesn't do anything for capturing anyway. (It could even be argued that the MT doesn't help much at all. Maybe a 10-20% performance boost at most? The bottleneck is still I/O, not CPU, for Huffyuv/lossless.)

I would suggest if you have the hdd space capturing uncompressed and then opening the file in vdub and changing the codec. I often use two hdd, one for capture and the second for the final version. It's not good to read and write to the same drive for something so heavy (excess wear and much slower).

Uncompressed capturing is not suggested. The I/O is 200%+ higher than lossless, meaning it can drop frames much easier. There is zero quality to gain at 4:2:2 YUY2 compressed vs. Huffyuv, Lagarith, etc.

And yes, that can include secondary video-only drives. Remember that the motherboard drive chipset is important, too, when it comes to I/O!

I use 10k raptors so i never noticed, i guess it comes down to resource balancing
