Hi,
I have a script that scans my very large directories of media files and use
the mediainfo module to record details on all the files. However I have 2
issues.
1: It crashes under Perl Win32 with the following error
open3: IO::Pipe: Can't spawn-NOWAIT: Resource temporarily unavailable at
c:/Perl
64/site/lib/Mediainfo.pm line 26
2. Under linux (Redhat 5.6) it leaves a very large number of defunct
mediainfo processes and sometimes I get
open3: fork failed: Resource temporarily unavailable at
/usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.8/Mediainfo.pm line 26
Which both seem to be related to the way open3 is being used.
Thanks,
Andrew
