Continual crashing of Pano2VR

Lubos · Mon Feb 15, 2021 10:09 pm

Configuration:
Windows 7 Profesional
Pano2VR 6.1.9 pro 64bit
i5-4690K
24GB RAM
System disk SSD 500GB (244GB free)

Situation:
I am working on a big project with ca 200 nodes of 134MPix JPEGs (25 MB each). I geolocated around half of the nodes in their place and continue to link them together. Since the beginning, I got repetitive behavior of freezing Pano2VR forcing me to restart the program after ctrl-clicking on the next node (to see what mini view of the inside node). Now it takes 3-10 minutes until the freeze and it seems to get shorter when progressing with the project.

When crashing, RAM has depleted just around 2/3, and the CPU works on just around 40%

I getting desperate since I expect more frequent crashes while progressing with the project. Please help!

I recorded a behavior and uploaded it on youtube.
In this 35 minute long video, you can see freezes at:
First freeze: 3:12 - https://youtu.be/2R0l-jDEeD0?t=193
Second freeze: 12:31 - https://youtu.be/2R0l-jDEeD0?t=752
Third freeze: 34:50 - https://youtu.be/2R0l-jDEeD0?t=2091

Thank you very much for the link. Converting photos into leveled TIFFs works great. Only one crash since. After restarting the computer, no crash for 2 hours. Great!

On top of that, it's so quick! One time investment in the beginning (around 40 minutes of computing) but after that the speed is unprecedented. Feels like working on a computer from the future!

Thanks again!
