Using trackpy.batch() on bioformats images in parallel #726

Open MMarkovetz opened 1 year ago

Hello. I have run into an issue where I can read in an Olympus .vsi file using the pims Bioformats framework, but I cannot process them using the trackpy.batch() method unless I set the argument processes=1. If using more than one process, the wheels just spin without any noted progress. I think it may have to do with creating multiple Java Virtual Machines, but it's a bit beyond me.

I am happy to attach an example .vsi file if helpful with the warning that it is quite large.
