Crash if downloaded file don't fit in mem cache

[spamwerbung]

Hi,

Found another bug. Alt.Binz crash and open about 50 error windows with "Access violation at address 006AFDF0 in module 'altbinz.exe'. Read of address 00000008." and one with "Invalid pointer operation." and at some point if enough error windows are open Windows itself pull the plug and present an AppCrash "Alt.Binz has stopped working" and close Alt.Binz. This happen every time if a downloaded file don't fit in the download mem cache. I have it set to 1000, so any file above ~1GB cause Alt.Binz to crash, if set to 2000 anything above ~2GB cause a crash respectively. For now if a collection has larger files (meanwhile there are some) I disable the mem cache (set to 0) which will then slow down decoding and download but work. Don't know which version introduced this bug, but I'm pretty sure Alt.Binz in older (0.42/44?) versions used the download/temp folder to store parts that don't fit in mem cache.

Any idea?

LAA or not?

Just tested, LAA version work fine, the other one does not. So will use LAA version for now.

I was expecting the other way around.
I would limit caching to 300-500MB

Limit the cache to 500MB works. 


Thanks much.

My problem is cause by the opposite: I tried to download files that are larger than 2000MB and I can't extend the cache above 2000MB that is in some cases a problem.
Is there a possibility that you could extend this number?
For me it is very frustrating tu use the SABnzb for only these 2 or 3 files per year. And with Alt.Binz I only get an error if I try to download it. The error is saying: "Not enough system resources" or something similar to that.

Do not extend cache that much. 500MB is more then enough. You can download files larger then 2GB without any problem.

@Rdl: Maybe I'm doing something wrong but I would like to explain you my Problem. I try to download something that ist packed in 165 rar files. Each has a size of 1,09 GB. Only with such stupid files I get the problem that I'm getting a frozen AltBinz windows and an error message telling me either that nor enough system resources are available or not enough space. But space is not detailed any more specific. HDD space is more than enough available and RAM is only 9 GB out of 32 GB in use.

For me it would make sense to allow AltBinz to use more Cache if it is required. But I can't extend beyond 2000 MB.

I stand by the last statement.
