Question

Timeout while waiting for the engine

I have a script, that does some batch thumbnail conversion from bridge, but uses the commandline interface of ImageMagik instead of photoshop.
I tried the way via app.system(cmd) with each single thumb and writing a .bat-file with all the thumbs and execute it finally with f.execute()
My problem is, that after about 10 images bridge throws the error "Timeout while waiting for the engine".
What exactly does bridge want to tell me with this? Do bridge-scripts have a certain leap-time or is there a kind of sandbox for looping scripts that run quite long?
I have included some $.sleep(100) but it didn't improve.
I'm running on winxp, but have only 500 MB ram, could this be the problem?

Thanx for any help + regards from germany,

Markus Selbach
