I used the method in <a href="show_bug.cgi?id=44085#c6">comment 6</a> to create a test file. I used dd if=/dev/urandom bs=1M count=400 of=x.avi to create the avi files. This gave me a 2.8GB pdf file. I also tried using single 2.5GB avi file but there seems to be a bug in pdflatex or movie15. It is using signed 32-bits for the stream length so it wrote a pdf with a negative stream length for the avi file. With the patches, pdfinfo, pdffonts, pdftoppm, and pdftocairo (image output only) are working with the 2.8GB test file. I need to do more testing of the patches before they are ready. Some of the things I have not yet looked at are: - pdftops, pdfimages, pdfunit, and pdfseparate - testing on a 32-bit machine - try to create more interesting >2GB files for testing - reg testing of < 2GB pdfs I'm attaching the current version of my patches. It would be great to get some feedback on the patches before I spend a lot of time on testing.</pre> </div> <hr> You are receiving this mail because: <ul> <li>You are the assignee for the bug.</li> </ul> </body> </html>
