Unable to create bitmap: out of resources

Pages: 1
Posted:  24 Apr 2012 06:20   Last Edited By: lionp
Cannot save images which take up more ram than permitted by a 32-bit browser (Google Chrome).

Unable to create bitmap: out of resources.
Try reducing image extents or get more of free RAM

Screen recording of problem: https://youtu.be/55B3m1mRvvk

Is there a way around this? On the fly compression? Or even dumping the raw image sequently when it comes to ~3GB to disk then just "joining" it as one?

EDIT: nevermind, it seems if i choose "Capture Entire Page and ... >  Edit" it works. I can live with that smile

Plugin version: FireShot 0.98.3
OS type and version: Windows 7 Ultimate 64-bit SP1, en-us
Browser and version: Google Chrome 20.0.1105.2
Steps to reproduce the bug: Try to capture a webpage with alot of high res photos. See posted video link.

Thanks for reporting, but please let me know whether you do additional editing in the editor before saving or is saving from the editor working better than the direct one?

saving from the editor is working, no additional editing is necessary. Just "Capture entire page and ... > Edit", once the capture opens in the editor i can successfully save it.

However directly doing "Capture entire page and ... > Save" on large bitmaps results in error:
Unable to create bitmap: out of resources.

1. install userscript "4chan x" from: mayhemydg.github.com/4chan-x/
*This allows the images in the thread to be expanded in the same window

2. go to "boards.4chan.org/w/" and select a thread that has over 40 image replies

3. Expand the images, after images are done loading, "capture entire page and.. > save"

Hello, extremely long web pages can be a problem, even if you have 16G of RAM. However, they will be nicely saved to PDF.
