memlimit is ignored. #101
Comments
I'm not sure how the memory in a pipe is accounted for by top The limit is on the internal frame queue. |
Ok, thanks for your reply. I've been able to limit memory use in another way. |

I've noticed while using bmdcapture to pipe capture card input into a video player, if I pause the video player, bmdcapture will fill memory up until the point my system crashes.
The flag -M for memlimit seems to be ignored as well as the 1GB default.
Video demonstrating the problem: http://ks361234.kimsufi.com/bmdcapture.mkv
You can see mpv fill its cache before bmdcapture starts to fill up memory indefinitely well beyond the 1GB limit.
I didn't record it, but after unpausing the video the memory clears itself immediately and bmdcapture stops running after pushing out a few more seconds of video.
I'm using the latest version compiled from this git on Ubuntu 18.04 64 bit with a Blackmagic Design Intensity Pro 4K card.
