I want to read a movie in loop (approx. 3 sec.) amongs others synthetised images. When I start the movie (dv compression, 30 fps, 720x480), I'm seing the frame rate lowering (about 15 fps instead of 30 without the movie playing). I checked my processor and it's still not very hight (about 40%). I presumed that the diskdrive reading the movie would slow down the frame rate?
You can try setting "Synchronous Mode" on the Movie Loader, and see if that helps. Some tests show that this setting may improve QT's movie caching stuff.
So, I wonder, is it possible to put my little movie directly in RAM to avoid to read it from the hard drive?
There's some way of making a ram disk. I don't know how in OS X, but people have mentioned it, and I'm sure there are docs on how to do it.
