please help: INPUT_MAX_ALLOCATION reached!!!

[Jochen Steinbicker]

Really sounds like a MacOSX related error - though i haven't encountered it 
before. Is it soundfile related in your case? I haven't had problems with 
sound, only problem so far is with this particular divx-avi which doesn't 
even have sound.

Nice little info to the side: when i took the audio out of that crashing 
avi, the crash occurs a tiny bit later - without the audio it seems, the 
buffer needs a bit more until it fills up.

btw: is there a way to increase the buffer size?
