Question on Render times.
Posted: Sun Oct 20, 2013 10:45 pm
Hi there,
I installed the trial version of this last night. It seems to be a really great product. After various trials though it seems like it will take an eternity to render. I trialed probably about 8 scenes inside a short film I'm making. It's 4 minutes long. The film is made from DSLR footage shot on a Canon 60D at 1080p - 24fps.
After about 10-15 minutes I'd processed 1% of my video. Making a rough guess I'd say I'd be looking at multiple hours of render time for my 4 minute clip. My encoding was in h.264 - 1 pass and changed the ratio down to 1280 x 720 (from 1080)
Is this what I should expect? Or are there way's to stream line the process? I'm fairly new to the editing world.
My Laptop runs a Haswell i7 4700HQ, 16GB of Ram and has a 1TB drive which includes a 256GB SSD from where my programs run. It has a also has a 4GB Nvidea graphics card. This machine I'd consider mid to high end so I'm assuming it's not my rig.
