(LOW PRIORITY) Astronomically large fps value?!?

This is on a freshly reinstalled system, 1.24.1 from the ubuntu 9.10 repository.

When viewing a camera feed, either on its own or in the montage, I occasionally get a monstrously long fps value (obviously not true), so long that it even throws the picture off screen in the montage view! I'm talking about numbers like:

Code: Select all

State: undefined - 1111969364084738841221126391548802810248976875390750307258653108506130664968629499099883879113848318315235550301620232671032820658927601575145983391883717240684544.00 fps

Where does this come from, and how can I prevent it?

By the way, the source is defined as max fps = 1.00, and max fps during alarms = 2.00.

There have been several threads on that. IIRC it was a bug that applied to 64 bit systems.

It has been fixed in version 1.24.2.

Can you update? If not I think there was a patch listed.

HTH, Keith

Thanks Kwire.

I have 1.24.2 on another hard disk; I had disconnected it and restarted with a fresh install to try and fix another problem. If that's known and fixed in 1.24.2 then I won't worry about it.
