Sory, I meant pix_film instead of pd_film

Hi all,
I'm making an application to trigger videos using MIDI. I'm coding the MIDI in
Ableton Live and sending it through a MIDI loop on my soundcard.
I have two video channels and each has it's on pix_film to show every video for
it's layer. Everytime a midi key is pressed, a file is opened. This causes PD
to crash after a few minutes. Does anyone has an idea how to go around this
situation?
I think the best solution would be to have an array of all videos used in each
layer, opened at launch. This might not be the best way because I might get a
lot of videos and run out of memory (let's not forget I'm running Live at the
same time).
Another solution could be to check if I'm pressing the same midi key so I won't
have to load the video again. This might help me make
the video loading less intensive.
Any ideas on how to get this thing going?
Daniel Almeida
