OK, trying to convert our JPG photo's using VCDEasy as per vitualis's suggestion (to show JPG files on our TV through our standalone JVC XV-S500BK DVD player at a faster rate than the disappointing standard slow display rate).
This error happens when following the VCDEasy Guide for converting JPG's found at: (http://www.vcdeasy.org/modules.php?name=_Guides&id=SimpleStills)...once I finish the conversion process:
"ERROR (with a big red circle with white cross) <file name> creation failed malloc failed" then once I close that error box, this info box appears: Mpeg Still(s) creation finished Number of Pictures: 1 Failed: 1 See the log page for details. The log shows the exact above information.
What am I doing wrong??
What's a malloc? (Thought it was a Mullet!)

malloc is a C language function. It allocate memory and it's declared as:
void *malloc( size_t size );
size is number of bytes to allocate. The example:
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <malloc.h>
void main( void )
{
* char *number; /* that will be pointer for return value*/
int NoOfBytes;
NoOfBytes = 1024; /* I want to allocate 1024 bytes*/
* number = malloc(NoOfBytes);
* if( number == NULL )
**** printf( "Not enough memory\n" );
* else
printf( "OK, memory allocated\n" );
}
malloc will return a pointer to allocated space or NULL it there is not enough memory available.
So, the application can't reserve a desired portion of memory and picture creation failed. It happen when, obviously, there's not enough free memory but in your particular case, without knowing anything more about your hw/sw configuration, it's difficult to say why this happens.
