I want to allow using up to 4GB of memory when using DirectX9. Currently, when memory usage goes too high, I get this message:

access violation at 0x000E8AE5 in C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\d3dx9_43.dll,
attempting to read from 0xE47DE9C0

I'm running my DLL via AVSMeter.exe which has the /LARGEADDRESSAWARE compilation flag.

Then in my code

https://github.com/mysteryx93/AviSynthShader/blob/master/Src/D3D9RenderImpl.cpp#L313

I replace

HR(D3DXGetShaderConstantTable((DWORD*)ShaderBuf, &Shader->ConstantTable));

with

HR(D3DXGetShaderConstantTableEx((DWORD*)ShaderBuf, D3DXCONSTTABLE_LARGEADDRESSAWARE, &Shader->ConstantTable));

I still get the same error message. What else do I need to change to make it work?

I have a 64-bit OS, and this is an AviSynth plugin; AviSynth doesn't support 64-bit.

Nobody has an idea on this one? Basically, it *should* be working but isn't?

I'm using an EXE such as AvsMeter that has the 4GB patch, which loads the AVS script file and loads AviSynth.dll, which then loads my DLL, and the crash occurs within DirectX when memory usage gets too high.

If it *should* be working, any reason why it wouldn't?

Interesting technique. I don't think it's applicable in my case because I'm not allocating that memory myself. It gets eaten up when too many DX9 devices get created -- which I'm trying to reduce as well but that's a different topic.
