12 hours to render a 1 hr clip?????

I have an HDV 1080i hour long clip that I have put color corrections on just about every clip because the black levels were low. I have very limited hard drive space left on my boot up drive BUT I'm not even rendering or saving any FCP files to my boot up drive. I have 4 gigs of memory and my processor is 2.5 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo.
Why is my computer so slow when rendering in FCP? I'm exporting to a external USB2 drive that I just bought. How can I make my rendering process quicker?
Thanks for your help!

I have digitized my HDV footage in as ProRes BUT it creates a clip each and every time I turn my camera on and off, which is a HUGE pain to edit. Does this happen to you when you digitize your footage in as ProRes. It also seems that it takes just as long to render and export in ProRes. < </div>
Something's wrong on your end. You do not need your camera at all. Once your Prores has been transcoded and your sequences match the video codec, you should not need to render anything except yoru effects and transitions.
Let me ask you this. Will it help for me to get a new iMac with a lot of internal drive space, etc.
Thanks for your help.

Probably not. A common error is to believe a new Macintosh is the answer to everything. What you need to do is work backwards from your desired output goals which should be based on your ability to either make money from your video or to remain within a reasonable out of pocket budget. What do you want to produce and how are you going to pay for it? Then you figure out what camera and support equipment will satisfy that desire and then you figure out what kind of hardware you need to do the job.
HDV is not a good choice for many reasons and you can research them easily. Prores solves most of them and introduces its own by complicating the ingestion process and presenting many options for proxies and reconnecting or redigitizing at higher resolutions. All easily researched int your manuals but not necessarily easily understood; FCP is a deep and complex application at all levels.

  • Compressor takes 3 hours to render a 2 minute clip?

    Ok what could I possibly be doing wrong.  I have a 01:58 minute clip that I have appied "Old Paper" and a few credit title screens, and I'm rendering on an 2007 iMac with 4GB memory, and a 700Gig Hard Drive.  Why on earth if exporting it to use Apple Pro Res 422 would it be taking over 3 hours to render??????

    Ok here is an update.  GET THIS!!!   I read in another forum that you should just export QT from FCP and then import into compressor so I tried it.
    My FCPX export Apple Pro ResHQ took...... (drum roll).... 79 SECONDS to export compared to the 20 minutes that Compressor did.
    Quality of the two MOV's were identical and the FCPX version was slightly smaller 2.57GB vs 2.75GB for Compressor.
    Now I'm totally confused.  I've I'm using the MOV to import into Adobe Encore to author my DVD, what is compressor to be used for ????

  • AME is taking 20 hours to render 30 min clip from AE

    Hello.
    I am new to Abode After Effects CC and its Adobe Media Encoder CC
    I have made a video in AE cc for youtube purpose.
    I saved the file as a AE File and opened the AME cc Encoder,
    I have opend the AE file in AMEcc and put it in H.264  - HD 1080p 29.97 (Target Rate 32Mbps)
    When I tell it to render, It says its going to take 23 Hours. It started at 8 hours, and went all the way up to 26 hours, and has now sat at 23 hours.
    Its a 30 Minute clip
    Please can you tell me where I am going wrong.
    I used to use AE 5, and I used to render  30 minute videos with AME 5 within an hour, maybe an hour and a half,
    I have only a 4GB RAM But we have moved this file that we are trying to render to another PC that has 8GB of Ram// Win 7,
    Please Help
    Emily.

    It almost killed me, I tell ya. But I FINALLY got it figured on this end. I don't know if this will help you, Emily,, but after the war I just waged, I gotta tell somebody.
    Okay, I uninstalled, and cleaned everything up - the CIA would have been jealous of my deletion skills.
    I reinstalled only Premiere, AE, and of course Media Encoder came a long for the ride, and stopped there - and tried again.
    As you can see - it's only 1 minute long and I got it down to 23mb.
    But then we give it to ole Media Encoder.
    20+ HOURS! But that's still HD, so I scrubbed everything out and tried with the tinest, lowest rate encoding I could dig up.
    I don't know if y'all can see that down at the bottom - but I really did get it down to 2mb just for this experiment. I happily clicked the button and got ....
    *head desk!* *Head desk!* *head desk!*
    Oh them's fighting words! Errr... numbers!
    So, I started researching, overhauling, generally driving myself in circles. Now my video card is decent, but it's not CUDA - but I discovered the card maker had a new driver out - it's beta, but fingers crossed.
    It helped - doesn't have a lot of the bells and whistles, but I have a small but notable difference.
    Media Encoder still crashes upon the second time I open it, or send anything to it, I have to reinstall from the patch file. Now this project I'm doing, I'm in a serious time crunch - so silly me thought it would be easier to get a template, and slap it together and go on down the road.
    I should have known better. The first two templates I used, worked like a charm. Under an hour to render, and we zipped along just fine.
    But now I realize I ow Media Encoder an apology. Not a big one - it's still giving me fits - but a little one.
    It's the way the templates are set up. It would have been faster for me just to build this stuff from the ground up. I ended up ripping these suckers apart and putting them together in a much more efficient fashion.
    I've never had this problem before, I never really looked that hard at this stuff. When I did - I was really to kill someone.
    So, I ended up stripping these things down, and really streamlining them. I also started pre-rendering stuff.
    I pre-compose all the time, but really haven't messed with pre-rendering, I do short trailer stuffs.
    But pre-rendering helped a TON too!
    I got that sucker lined out like you wouldn't believe!
    AND  DRUM ROLL!......
    41 hours
    Well, since this wasn't working like I planned, I went back to AE and tried all sorts of different formats. I couldn't figure out why it worked just great on my first two renders, and it wasn't working with these last two.All four templates are different.
    Then I realized it was because the last two were still awful despite me trying to fix them. I went back to my original template which is about the same length, and it has trapcode - but I tossed something together with that.
    And rendered in 20 min in AE.
    Media Encoder and I still aren't speaking.
    I still haven't been able to get the second two templates to work - but I just got done rendering my project on the first template and it worked like a charm. So that's when I decided to pop over here.
    What exactly do you have going on, Emily? I'm wondering now if not only pre-composing, but pre-rendering as much as you can will help. At least I hope it will!
    It's either that or take a sledgehammer to it - which is still a possibility for me. hehe!
    Cheers,

  • Need help to figure out why AE is taking 20 to 30 hours to render 5 minutes of Virtual studio

    While I have been doing video editing for years, I am new to After Effects....Still, I went through the tutorials and Lynda.com, and I think I know my way around it well enough so that my renders should be working far more effectively than they are.
    The big problem is the duration it is taking to have After Effects render a virtual Studio clip, whether I just use a 20 second clip of my reporter with a video playing behind them in an LCD tv set, or if I try to run a full 5 minute version of the entire show....Friday night I tried to run the full 5 minute version of one of , and it took over 36 hours!!!  I am not getting any real help from Blue FX...either the support they offer is really for people that have been using After Effects for many years, and they can't imagine the issues I am having..or, maybe they feel that my issues are more After Effects issue than template issues.
    When I first bought the template a month ago, the PC I had been editing with for years was not powerful enough by most accounts I have read, about what is useful for AE....So I put together a new PC, this one with 32 gigs of ram, an Nvidea 760 video card with 2 gigs of RAM, 8 hard drives and tons of fans for 24 hour operation.
    Some of the things I don't know..... How long "should" one of these 3D virtual studios take to render, where you have already stripped out the greenscreen and are feeding the reporter video in with alpha channel on a quicktime 32 bit animation codec video....and have a 1080p hi res video playing in the TV behind the reporter--in the virtual studio...and you have all the 3 D renders and shadows and effects of the studio template being rendered? Do people really wait 24 to 30 hours for a 5 minute long finished rendering?
    To give you an idea of the studio template and what my computer is having to process, here is a sample we did, no script, just trying to see how this would produce.....and this one I did in 25 second and 10 second chunks/renders, assembling later in Premiere,....still, the rendering was close to 20 hours.
    Beyond the Beach - YouTube
    If any one can suggest what might be going on wrong, that is taking so long, I'd appreciate it. One are I wonder about is whether something needs to be collapsed--I read that some elements need to be collapsed prior to rendering--but how would I know which?

    Rendering composites has always been slow. It is much faster than it used to be. MP rendering still does not work for all situations. Temporal effects and MANY, let me repeat that MANY codecs do not respond well if at all to MP rendering so you should turn that off unless you know for sure your comp and your codec work with MP rendering. I seldom if ever use MP rendering for anything that is not rendered to an image sequence. It is not uncommon for my complex composites to take 2 or 3 minutes a frame. I have had many that take longer. Simple projects, on the other hand, can render as fast as 2 or 3 frames a second. It all depends on the project. That's the way compositing goes.
    Compositing is almost always faster than 3D rendering. I had a 3D project last week that took 25 hours to render 100 frames. You just have to plan for it early in the project.
    Here's what my usual workflow is:
    Avoid Ray-traced rendering unless there is no other way to achieve the design (I also minimize the ray traced paths in 3D apps because it is very slow)
    Pre-render and replace footage elements that I am going to re-use. For example, if I pull a key and I'm going to need to use that key for 5 or 10 layers to pull off a convincing composite I'll pre-render the keyed footage to a lossless production codec and replace the keyed layer in the comp with the rendered file
    Render and replace all Warp Stabilized footage with a suitable DI (lossless digital intermediate)
    Use the Adobe Media Encoder render all deliverables, including production proofs and production masters, usually directly from an AE project file, then start or switch to another AE project and continue working while the AME is chugging away
    Render Image Sequences whenever possible in the production pipeline because it's easier to make changes to frame 200 through 220 when the client wants a change in less than a second of a 30 minute project.
    NEVER try and edit a movie in AE. AE is for sequences or shots, your NLE is for editing
    I have not sat around twiddling my thumbs waiting for AE's render cue to churn out a project in years. The only time I wait for anything is for ram previews. I also have some workflow suggestions for that.
    Just as cell animators do, run motion tests with the most basic of your project's elements. By that I mean set Comp Resolution to automatic, set the Zoom factor to 50 or 25% and check how the motion works before you add any effects that are going to slow things down. If you have already added effects you can temporarily turn them off in the Timeline view
    Check only critical frames or a few critical frames that are in transition (moving) at full resolution because RAM previews at full resolution are short and slow to render and you don't have time to mess around
    If you have long sections to ram preview to verify timing follow rule 1 but modify the ram preview settings to use only every other or every fourth frame
    THE MOST IMPORTANT RULE: Remember that video moves and that you cannot judge the final quality of a video by nit picking a single frame. You must watch playback in real time on the playback device that will be used to see if your scene is working.
    Last rule, if you have gone over the same few frames of a sequence trying to fix something about it for more than 10 minutes, step away from that project and do something else for at least 20 minutes. You'll be amazed how good it looks when you get back to it
    I have one more suggestion for a new AE user. Actually, this is for anyone that works at a computer for a living. Never sit staring at the screen and pounding at the keyboard for more than one hour without standing up and walking at least around the room for 5 minutes to let your head clear and get the blood circulating. You'll be happier, more creative, and have better health and posture.

  • 8 hours to render 30 minute movie

    I must be doing something wrong. I'm assuming it shouldn't take 8 hours to render a 30 minute movie. iMovie version is 7.1.4 I used share with web browser so it would be a "large" movie. Does anyone know why it's taking so long??? It's driving me crazy I loved the old version 4.0.1 and that'll be my next question

    1) Is your source material high definition? If not, rendering in Large is not going to improve SD very much.
    2) LARGE movies in MobileMe look great but they take a great deal of time to load when watching (and a great deal of time to upload.
    3) I recommend that you make a short five minute movie. (For example you can control-click/Duplicate on your project name and make a duplicate project. Then delete everything but the first five minutes.) Then Share it to either iTunes or the Media Browser in Large and Medium. It should take no more than 10 minutes to do the rendering. Then share this five minute movie in Large and Medium to Mobile Me. It may take 30 minutes or more, but it is already rendered, so this is all web transfer time.) Now watch it in both Medium and Large. You will notice that the Large movie takes about 5 minutes to load before it starts playing. The medium movie should start playing almost immediately. Then decide which which way to go for your 30 minute movie. The upload time will be 6 times or more the upload time for your 5 minute movie, and the rendering time will be approximately 6 times the rendering time for you 5 minute movie.

  • Why is Premiere Pro telling me it will take over 24 hours to export a 55-second clip with no audio or effects?

    Why is Premiere Pro telling me it will take over 24 hours to export a 55-second clip with no audio or effects? It's never done this before, but this is driving me nuts. I'm almost finished with this project, I can't have this kind of stuff happening now.

    Forgive me. I'm just stressing hardcore at the moment.
    Specs:
    OS X 10.9.4
    2.8 GHz intel
    Premiere 5.5
    exporting cell phone video which has been treated with effects and layered with other clips from cell phone video, then nested as one single video clip, now trying to export as H.264 (DV 24fps)
    Full disclosure: I am an amateur so if you need more info just tell me and I'll produce it if I can. I should note though, I've done this before with no problem. However the settings may have been different (still getting the hang of the whole 'settings' thing, to be honest). It's very possible that the problem in this case is the operator, in other words.

  • 12 hours to render? is that normal?

    I have a G5 dual 2.7GHZ machine with 8GB of RAM. 250GB internal drive with 140GB available space, 500GB external Lacie drive with 300GB available space. and I keep all my project files on the external drive when I work on any project.
    So, I recently finished an edit that was 28 minutes, 30 seconds. it was an infomercial, so it had a lower third overlay during the entire edit, a few transitions, but mostly cuts, and a few filters on some shots, nothing too intense. I rendered the sequence which took a few hours, not sure.
    then I exported to compressor for DVD, and chose the 90 minute option with one pass- faster encode. 4 hours have elapsed, and I have 8 hours to go.
    is that normal?
    I've been using FCP5 for the first time on a new G5 for a few months now, and all the projects that I've rendered out for DVD so far, I just exported and walked away, and usually came in the next day and it was done, so I never really monitored rendering time until now. I upgraded from a G4 500MHZ single processor using Premiere 6.5, and my render times were not nearly that long. I was thinking that with a G5 that was nearly 8 times as fast, my render time would be much shorter, only it got longer. I love FCP5 much more than Premiere, and OSX is great, but render times are just insane.
    again, from the info that I provided, should my render times be that long, or am I doing something wrong?
    thanks for any insight anyone can give.

    checked my settings, and I had it set to normal.
    while I had that window open, I clicked on the Render Control Tab, and noticed that under Render & Playback, all three options were checked- Filters, Frame Blending For Speed, and Motion Blur. could this be a reason? and if I unchecked say Filters, would that mean, it would render the sequence without any filters I had applied?
    one other problem I have been having just this week with this particular project is that FCP seems to be running really slow. other programs run normal, so I'm pretty sure its an issue specific to FCP. for example, just now when I had the sequence settings window open, and I was click on the tabs, from video processing to render control, there was a hesitation before it would display the tab. Its like driving on flat tires or something. and at this time, I have no other program open except Safari, so its not like I"m taxing my resources. what could cause FCP to bog down?
    thanks for your help.

  • Can't render preview on some clips

    In my timeline I've got a bunch of clips - some have yellow lines above them in the render bar, some red, some green.  And then some have no lines at all, it's these that are the problem.
    When I tell it to 'render preview' it will make all the clips with yellow and red lines turn to green just fine, but does nothhing with the clips that have no lines above them at all, it's like it thinks 'these clips are so easy to play I dont need to render preview, they dont have effects or anything on them', however it is sorely mistaken because when I play back the preview everything plays fine except those clips, which stutter and skip (because they are uncompressed HD video).
    Is there a way to force every clip to 'render preview', not just the ones Premiere thinks need it?

  • Riddle me this-. Orange Render bar for some clips

    I hope my system isn't getting tired and old but I have never had a project where all the clips needs to be rendered. No effects applied or anything. I converted these clips to Apple Pro Res(LT) and I still need to render. When I convert my RED footage, it works fine. But not the MVI files. See picture on this link. The files have same codec, one needs to render but the other doesn't!
    http://www.redmoonlight.com/PictsOnWeb/OrangeRender.png
    Thanks for you time or any solution you can give.
    Things I did: Trash prefs, restart, video scope closed

    The orange render bar-
    "Indicates effects that exceed your computer’s real-time playback capabilities but are enabled anyway because Unlimited RT is selected in the RT pop-up menu in the Timeline. Unlimited real-time playback lets you play more effects but increases the chances that your sequence will drop frames during playback. This mode is useful for getting a real-time preview of complex effects compositions." - form the manual.
    I interpet that it mean it will playback withourt requiring rendering until you apply an effect.
    One of your clips is set to "maximum" quality with a higher bitirate than the one set to "Normal" quality. Not sure if that is causeing it.

  • Ten hours + to render six minutes?

    Installed Premiere Elements 8 a few days ago - attempting my first "project" - pulled a dozen scenes totalling about 30 minutes worth from my Samsung SDHC camcorder - (standard defintion),  edited them down to six minutes or so that might be worth watching and started rendering to upload to Photoshop Online. That was about four hours ago - it is still running (I just saw it tick over from 25 - 26% complete), showing 6h15mins remaining.
    My machine should be more than capable of performing this: it's a 2.5GHz Core2 Quad with 8 GB of Ram, a Radeon HD 4800 video card, and plenty of disc space... running 64-bit Windows 7 ultimate... scores 7.2 on WEI...

    I was trying to do the same thing and convert to FLV but gave up and converted to mpeg then used ' Handbrake ' to convert the files it took 17 minutes in premiere elements to render 35 min video to mpeg then another 20 to render it to MP4 for Vimeo at 1500Kbs and full frame. Elements is a little bit weird when it comes to outputting files. Handbrake is open source so it's free download and Vimeo site has a tutorial on settings under ' compression' and at the bottom of that page, is a link to ' Uegenia ' persons blog on it. Good luck!

  • After Effects: Taking 9 hours to render and finalize a 4 minute song with audio spectrum?

    Hello, I am using Adobe After Effects to create some Youtube videos for my music. I have a 4 minute song I've created, and have added 6 layers of audio spectrum, as well as glows, and a few other minor effects. I'm newer to the program, but I still do not understand how the estimated time to render 6,125 frames is 9 HOURS?
    My computer: Dell Optiplex 760
    Intel(R) Core 2 Duo CPU - E7200 @ 2.53GHz
    Ram: 8 GB
    System: 64-bit
    Hard Drive: 250GB
    The Rendering process is set on multi-process rendering. It is using 71% of 8GB ram constantly.
    I am rendering my 4 minute song, along with the 6 layers of audio spectrum, glows, and other effects, along with 2 small text layers.
    This is going into MPEG4 format, with "Best Settings".
    I have tried .FLV, .MPEG4, .H261, and .MOV and they all have the same estimated time for 6,125 frames.
    Could anyone provide me any advice? I need to render and finalize this composition, then upload it to youtube. So it would be great to have decent quality, as well as GOOD sound quality.
    Thank you!

    Don't use compressed audio -- change ac3's, aac's or mp3's to wav or aiff.
    Turn off the multiprocessing--it probably isn't helping one bit, and you may have it set up wrong, too.
    Render to a quicktime movie in Animation, Photo JPEG  or PNG codecs.  Compress later
    Just before bedtime, hit the Render button, have a nice night's sleep, and see how things are doing in the morning.
    Compress to mp4 using Adobe Media Encoder.
    And FYI:  things that you call "minor effects" may in reality be quite processor-intensive, meaning AE has to work harder, meaning it'll take a good deal of rendering time.
    AE isn't a video editor.  It's an effects, motion graphics  and compositing application.  It doesn't work like a video editor.  You can't expect it to react or perform like a video editor.

  • How to re-render a modified title clip?

    I made a title clip in Motion, rendered and loaded in FCPX. Now I have modified it in Motion and rendered again (IN MOTION) with same name, so it replaced the old file.
    Now, I see that FCPX reads the old clip yet (probably it reads the old rendered file).
    It seems it cannot realize that the clip has changed in its internal contents...
    How can I tell FCPX to re-render the modified clip?

    Make a change. Push the opacity down. Push it up. Not undo. If you modify a file in Motion, export with a new name and thn relink to the you new file.

  • SmoothCam filter estimates 5 hours to analyze a 9 second clip???

    So I have FCS 3 and SnoLeopard and I tried to use the SmoothCam filter for the first time. There were no other filters applied, no motion at all, and no speed adjustments. It began to analyze and estimated 5 hours, no 6, no 7 hours to analyze this 9 second long clip. Standard DVCam footage, nothing unusual about it.
    I got this system used and so far it has performed perfectly but I'm wondering if there's something in the configuration that might be creating a bottle neck.
    I'd like to run my system specs by some experts to see if you know any reason why it should take that long.
    It's a Mac Pro with 2 x Dual Core Intel Xeon 3Ghz processors. I'm assuming 2 dual cores should perform the same as a quad core generally.
    Graphic Card is a ATI Radeon X1900 PCIe x16 with 512megs of ram.
    System Memory is 2 Gigs, thats 4 x 512 meg DDR2 FB-DIMM 667MHz ( I realize this might be a little low and I've already ordered an additional 4 Gigs. )
    FCPro version is Final Cut Studio 3.0
    Do you have any suggestion what could be choking this thing? I don't know if this particular Radeon card (X1900) is a low end card or not. If it is, can someone recommend a better card for this machine?
    Any suggestions you can make would be greatly appreciated.
    Rob Fowler

    I never would have guessed what was the problem and I'm no noob. I started out on FCPro version 2 on OS9. Seems like very poor planing on the part of the design engineer to have it analyzed the entire captured file. They need to process it with handles, one or two seconds on either side of the in and out points.
    <
    We've wondered why setting in and out points does not translate immediately to IN and OUT to Smoothcam. There are workarounds. Sorry about the presumptuous assumption. the issues with optical flow grabbing the entire media have been known for years.

    So the question is actually answered? You got something out of me besides attitude? Cool.

  • One hour long recording, produced multiple short clips

    Our HV40 has developed a new problem. I recorded an hour long clip  of our worship service. When I imported into editing program, Sony Vegas, it was broken into 109 small clips.  At each break the sound would break also, making it hard to view and listen. I recorded with a fully charged battery. Also during the viewing a green bar would flash occasionally over half of the frame. It has never done this before. To analyze the problem I recorded with a new tape. However due to broken cord on power converter, ( a common Canon problem I'm reading) I can not import the new recording. Before purchasing a new converter, $75.00, I want to know if it is the tape,  transport mechanism, or some other problem. Thanks in advance for your help.

    Hi Canon Forum.
    I know this is a replay to a non related thread, but since it was not possible to make a new thread, I have to do it this way.
    I have a serious connection problem with my MVX4i Canon Camcorder.
    First my hardware:
    O/S: Win7 64bit
    What happens:
    I've installed the drivers but I keep getting the error "cannot detect camera".
    In my device manager it claims that the drivers cannot be installed and even though I manually search for them (on the installation CD or the installation directory) it refuses to install them.
    What I have tried:
    I've tried using different USB ports - no luck
    Used different USB cables - no luck
    Tried uninstalling EVERYTHING, disconnecting camcorder and installed drivers again - no luck
    I've tried drivers from your website instead of the CD - no luck.
    What in gods name can I do to get my PC to connect with my camcorder??
