Cache resources exhausted when converting to gif

[spalladino]

On a 30s cast, when running the conversion with default parameters, I'm getting the following error, and the resulting gif is truncated:

convert-im6.q16: cache resources exhausted `/tmp/tmp.Xh5BmZC2by/41.png' @ error/cache.c/OpenPixelCache/4083.

I'm on node 10.13.0, gifsicle 1.92, and imagemagick 6.9.10-23, on Ubuntu 19.10. Thanks!

I have the same issue.
Seems like it's an issue in the GIF generation part...
Having DEBUG=1 does not provide any info when it's generating the GIF.

The problem got solved by commenting out all of the resource policies from /etc/ImageMagick-6/policy.xml file.

ImageMagick/ImageMagick#396
