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.
