I have made a time lapse over 2 days. Each file is roughly an hour and 1GB. My plan, and it was working, was to import the .mp4 into WMM and then speed it up to x64. Do that many times then string it all together into one big video over 48 hrs.

All was going well until about the 15th file when it would not load into WMM. The file previews ok in windows.

So I tried to load it into handbrake and after 1 min or so it crashes to desktop.

I have opened task manager to see whats happening and its filling the whole of the system RAM once it gets to 32gb it crashes.

I thought ok can try and get away with it for just 1 file however now I have got a bit further on I have 2 more that are the same.

Anyone any ideas what might be going on?

I have found VLC will play them fine.. so I am trying to get VLC to convert them to a different format now and see if that works

It worked, so if anyone has the same problem that will sort it.
