Systems Out of Memory Exception

[billscully@me.com]

I am receiving System Out Of Memory Exceptions when using the Windows .EXE EXIF to extract metadata.  Is there a way to increase the memory that EXIF will use.  I know I have ample computer memory (32GB) and my performance monitor shows I never exceed 25% useage; the problem seems to be in EXIF. 

Thank you,

Bill

Hi Bill,

The memory limitation is a known problem in Windows.  However, the memory limit is usually sufficient to cover all files except some odd PostScript files.  I don't know any way to increase the memory allocation for the application in Windows.

Thanks for the quick response.  In my case, the file is an Adobe Premiere project file.  I read the project file to obtain information about media files used in the project.  I use the C# wrapper to interface to the .exe module.  I will look for a wrapper that can utilize the Perl code directly.
