Files Not showing Up in ToasterPaint File Requestor

Product: Video Toaster

Platforms: 2000 3000 3000T 4000 4000T

Problem: When attempting to use the ToasterPaint file requester to view a directory which you know contains a lot of files, only 14 or 15 files will show up.

This happens if the directory contains more than about 200 files. This is a known bug. The solution is to divide files into directories with no more than about 150 files, with RGB files. For FrameStores, you can either divide files into subdirectories for use by ToasterPaint, or if you need to maintain a directory with hundreds of framestore files, you can load them into a buffer using the Switcher's load requester, and then grab the buffer into ToasterPaint.
