Final object is to large for rendering....

[tvonbrasch]

Hi

I have made an addin called graphvideo.prg. The purpose of the addin is to create a video from a graph object using the ffmpeg program.

I works fine most of the time, but when i execute the attached program video.prg on the attached workfile lp.wf1, I get an error message:

Final object is to large for rendering. Please decrease the size or resolution

Why do I get this message? The program just creates several graphs of the same size.

(ps, it would be very nice if making videos from graph objects were an in built feature of Eviews :-) )

You are generating a lot of series and graphs in your program. I suspect you are getting the error because you are running out of memory.

If possible, I would delete the series and graph objects after the png file has been saved.

Alternatively, if you are using the 32 bit version of EViews and since your series appear to have less than 15k observations, you can try to adjust your memory settings. To do so select options->general options->advanced system options and lower 'maximum observations per series' and increase the 'memory reserved for windows'.

Hi

Thanks, deleting all the series and graphs objects worked :-)
