Hi,
I am using ffmpeg record a video from a webcam, but the memory usage is very high, and keeps increasing with video length. For example, I use an embedded device with 64 MB of RAM, and when I recorded a 30 minute video, I was left with 2MB of RAM in the last minutes of the recording. I used valgrind to check for memory leaks, but I only found a 24 byte leak when the program finishes. Is this memory consumption expected for ffmpeg? This is the ffmpeg command I used: ffmpeg -f video4linux2 -s 320x240 -t 00:00:10 -i /dev/video0 out.mpg Regards, --- Guilherme de Oliveira Costa Firmware Engineer - Autotrac Comercio Telecomunicacoes www.autotrac.com.br<http://www.autotrac.com.br/> guilherme.oliveira(at)autotrac.com.br Phone: +55 61 3307 7000 (Extension 2665) Esta mensagem e qualquer anexo a ela s?o documentos confidenciais e direcionados exclusivamente ao(s) destinat?rio(s).
