Hi Robert,

No, it doesn't read it all into memory, only one frame at a time.
Plus, I make movies that large all the time. However, what I have
noticed with the really large movies is that if I use one codec to
compress/decompress IDL may crash but using another one (with the same
data) works fine. I even have a case where the Divx codec works fine
on my laptop for movies but the same codec does not work on my
desktop. I have no idea why.

Well, good news and bad news:

The Good News: Installing the proper version of the C runtime library
(Microsoft.VC80.CRT version 8.0.50727.4053) solves the problem with
loading the KRSgrAVI DLL.

The Bad News: Everything seems to work great, as long as the movie is
not too large. I have not explored this thoroughly, but if your movie
is small (say, just a few MB) all is well. If, on the other hand, your
movie is large (say 650 MB or larger) IDL crashes when trying to load
the KRSgrAVIreader object. I am running IDL 7.0.8 by the way.

I am suspicious that the reader object is attempting to read the
entire movie into memory, and therefore it is crashing IDL when the
movie is too large. I am hoping this is NOT the case, because if it is
then analyzing a very large (multi-GB) movie file will be out of the
question.

Does anyone out there know if older versions of this DLL have a
problem with large files?

It appears that in order for the 2.0.0 KRSgrAVI DLL to work, you must
have installed the most recent (?) security update for the C runtime
redistributable. The link I gave above is does NOT include the
security update. Apparently DLLs created on systems onto which the
security update has been installed will REQUIRE the new DLL be
installed on any client machine. The DLL in question is
Microsoft.VC80.CRT version 8.0.50727.4053. (The version linked to in
the earlier post was version 3053). As soon as I have installed this
latest version, I will report back.

In case anyone's interested, I'm happy with the DLL version of the AVI
processor, picked up from the ITTvis site IIRC. This is invoked via
CALL_EXTERNAL. The disadvantage is that you have to call it thru a
wrapper function, and if you get it wrong, IDL terminates swiftly and
silently, which makes debugging tricky. The advantage is that once
this is sorted out, it just works and seems to be resilient to IDL
upgrades.

It's in the Motley library:

Still no joy. Installing the runtime libraries has not helped. I am
guessing it is a VC80 version issue, or perhaps something wrong with
the manifest in the KRSgrAVI DLL, but who knows? Has anyone gotten the
latest KRSgrAVI to work with IDL 7.0.8?

I believe this error is caused by the lack of C runtime libraries on
the machine. You can get the runtime redistributable libraries at
http://www.microsoft.com/DOWNLOADS/details.aspx?familyid=9B2 DA534-3E03-4391-8A4D-074B9F2BC1BF&displaylang=en

I will report here if this solves my problem. I started this thread,
might as well finish it.

Ok, just for grins I uninstalled and reinstalled the plug in once
more. I did not modify anything. When I try and run fastAVIdisplay.pro
I get this error:

% OBJ_NEW: Error loading sharable executable.
Symbol: IDL_Load, File = C:\3rd
Party\ITT\IDL708\idlde\plugins
\com.rlkling.idl.contrib.avi.windows_2.0
.0\KRSgrAVI.dll
This application has failed to start because the
application
configuration is incorrect. Reinstalling the application
may fix this
problem.
% Execution halted at: FASTAVIDISPLAY 26 C:\3rd
Party\ITT\IDL708\idlde\plugins
\com.rlkling.idl.contrib.avi.windows_2.0.0\fastAV
Idisplay.pro

Sigh.
