Slow performance due to many png files
Hello everyone.
I am working on an experiment in which my cues are pictures of E-Mails (.png). I startet with a test trial with 5 pictures and everything works so far. The experiment is to become very huge, there are about 350 png files needed in the end. My question now is if this will in any way slow down the program. If so would it be better if I typed the E-Mails as textlines and used these as cues?
Thanks in advance!

Hi Igotta,
Maybe it is already sufficient, to scale down the images? What resolution does one image have? If it is several MB, and you can reduce it to a few hundred KB, you should not run into problems. If it turns out to be too big after all, writing emails as texts would be the way to go. In that case, I would recommend that you write the lines outside of Openseame (in Excel or so), and then load the lines into the experiment.
Hope his helps,
Eduard
Hi Eduard,
in fact one picture is only about 50 KB big, so this should work with 350 pictures then.
Thanks for the help :)
