Subject: quicktime that doesn't read the whole file in?
Sender: owner-questions@freebsd.org
Precedence: bulk

Hmm, even with a 400MB swap partition I still get

steffi% xanim 2.mov
XAnim Rev 2.70.1 Experimental by Mark Podlipec (c) 1991-1995
QT rle: malloc failed
steffi% 

is there a QuickTime tool that can read in enough frames for a
sequence and not require the whole movie in memory at once?
