    weird memory problem (adobe captivate cs4)

    On the off chance any of you have used adobe captivate, which I use to make application/software tutorials, have you ever tried to publish a massive tutorial?

    It is saying I have insufficient memory, and there's only 1-2 posts on the forums about this. Rather frustrating when you have nicely laid out an entire flow of material.

    Re: weird memory problem (adobe captivate cs4)

    How much memory does the rig you are running it on have? It's possible that it's not actually lieing, that there IS insufficient memory?

    Let's try the obvious as well, have you tired rebooting? Sometimes as programs run over long periods of time they leak memory. It's unfortunate, but it's a trait of software programing we have to live with, especially if one uses experimental software.

    Second, have you tired increasing the size of your page-swap (virtual memory) file?

    Third, have you tired grabbing a USB stick or SSD and plugging that in and using it as a ReadyBoost?

    Re: weird memory problem (adobe captivate cs4)

    Hey dude. 4GB and 25GB Page File on the same drive as windows

    I have done all of the above except ReadyBoost. Never tried something like that..

    Reading up, it seems to just be what people put up with. As it was a time integral piece, i split it down into 5 slides each.

    Hope I haven't got to use the software for a big project that needs to be in one place...

    Re: weird memory problem (adobe captivate cs4)

    Is the program 32-bit?
    If so, it likely doesn't support growing beyond 2GB of virtual memory - it makes no difference how much physical memory you have, or how big your pagefile is.

    (Note that ReadyBoost only adds to system cache, it's not extra virtual memory.)

    Re: weird memory problem (adobe captivate cs4)

    5 slides is ludicrously small.

    What does Project/Bandwidth Analyzer have to say for itself?

    I have seen similar issues with other Adobe products that were only cured by a reinstall of Windows, this is a little extream but if all other ideas fail it may be an option for you.

    I just split it down and customed the HTML to output it compltely fine. I didn't use the Analyser, didnt think that really matters on a 8GB DVD..
