I use the routine matlab to convert videos, MOV to AVI format and for my system identify the 240 frames per second. When I use the routine to convert small videos (200 MB), I have not problems, but I need also of convert large videos (2GB), but the memory laptop is no enough. Anyone know how I limit the used memory of my matlab?
If you need my routine, I publish here. Thanks.

You don't need to read the whole movie into memory at once. Are you using the VideoReader class and read()?

My code work with small videos, but memory block when convert large videos. I have two solution, or limit the RAM memory or create a new code to convert videos. How to divide a video? For example my video has 80000 frames.

Again, we have not seen your code so it's hard to speculate on the unknown. All I can guess is that you're not using read() to read in one frame at a time, but are trying to read in the whole giant thing all at once, which I've already said (and you' already know) won't work for large videos.
