  4. I've been running all the versions of DVD-Lab and my machine has 512MB and never hit this problem.

    Is there anything out of the ordinary you are doing?

    I did a lot with the my trial (1.1.3 I think) on with only 256MB RAM....

  6. I have nearly a gig of ram on Win XP Pro, and this bug (?) is the reason I gave up trying to author in dvd-lab, which is a shame. I use TMPGenc dvd author now instead. If dvd-lab`s (and dvd menu studio`s) bugs ever get fixed I`ll be right back there.

    I did persevere btw and checked out the dvd-lab help site etc, but it still bugged out every so often for no apparent reason. Just wanted to post so that Calhoun didn`t think he was the only one.

    I too have a similar setup (WinXP Pro, 1GB of RAM) and I too got the
    Out of Memory message with DVD Lab (in fact just last night).

    In my case I was attempting to do something that it didn't like. I was attempting to create menus from the chapters in a movie. Well it was continuously giving me the error when I had the Menu 1 Open but when the Menu 1 was closed it worked fine.

    Just my Non Sense.

    BTW I haven't really investigated this thoroughly but is there a bug reporting form for DVD Lab?

  9. Upgrade to the newest version of DVD-Lab Pro. There is a fix in one of the betas that addresses "Out of Memory" issues.

    What a lame error. I just got this too. DVD-lab shall once again remain on the junk pile of authoring programs.

    Their website sucks too, broken links for downloads. That's unacceptable for a company trying to sell software.

    Absolutely not. I need something I can work with. Having a beta that expires soon is pointless. Either sell it or don't. There is no in-between.

  13. I recently found DVDLab giving me the same problem, that I traced to an incorrect (my mistake) entry for chapter points.

    I was entering over 30 Chapter points and did not use the correct format (ie 00:00:00:000) that it recognized, and kept getting error messages. As sound as I figured that out, memory problem disappeared.
