Control the playback/RAM cache settings?

Create
1

Hiya,

is there a way to control how much RAM SG Create uses to cache a frame sequence and what behavior like in RV? (Look ahead etc.)

Not sure if I’m seeing it correctly but I don’t think it’s using more than 50% of my RAM which makes it chug on longer shots.

Hi Ricardo,

The default cache size for the player is 20% of the available RAM.

You can use the following environment variable to override the default value (to 4096 MB in this example):

setenv SGC_PREF_READER_CACHE_MAX_SIZE_IN_MB 4096

I hope this helps.
Eric
