Export progress bar speeds to 50% then slows way down

While I'm here browsing for answers to another question I just asked, thought I would ask another one about a project I worked on at home...
Home computer specs:
Windows 7 Ultimate 64
AMD Phenom II 6-core 3.2ghz processor (overclocked to 4ghz)
16gb 1600mhz RAM
Nvidia GTS 450
Plenty of hard drive space, all 7200rpm internal
So my problem is with exporting... I was working with a 30 minute wmv file...and really all I did as far as editing goes...was cut off about 5 minutes from the beginning. That's it. No graphics, no effects...nothin.
So I proceed to export it as a wmv, I used stock settings because I honestly didn't care about the quality, I just wanted it done fast. Estimated file size was less than 100mb I think... The export process began
and speedily finished 50% of it in about 10 seconds and then slows to a crawl, where the time remaining was now going up 1 second at a time instead of down. By how slow it was going, it was probably going to
take about a half hour, which is bs for exporting to a crappy file type with low quality settings. My work comp has lower specs than this computer, and it exports 30 minutes of my avchd footage in the same amount
of time...
This seems like Premiere has an issue with certain file types here.
Any help?

yah i was thinking the same thing, the 2 pass is what is causing your timing dilemma, 50% was just the first pass analysis. The rest is the real rendering process.
Being crappy video with a crappy codec has nothing to do with speed, if anything it is going to make it slower. You didn't say how long it actually took to render out your video? With WMV i am guessing it is not multithreaded well and not using all 6 of your cores. try turning off maximum quality on your encoder and check your wmv settings, it is just a container and gives you lots of codec choices. it certainly is not the fastest thing out there but it appears you are being forced to use it anyways?

Export progress bar shows, but no SWF appears

Hello all,
i've been through tech support and about 100 different sites with this issue but nothing seems to help. I'm using windows Vista 64 bit (work machine, not personal) with Adobe CS5 production premium. I have this training I created in flash and it used to export just fine. I was able to test and everything, but lately, it stopped doing that. I hit CTRL+enter, and it won't give me a SWF file. I hit debug it says it can't find the swf. I looked in the folder where everything is for the training, and sure enough, there is no SWF file there. I tried hitting CTRL + enter and watching the folder. The SWF file appears while the export progress bar is going, but the second the bar is done, the file vanishes. For a while, if I went into File and hit Export Movie, it worked, but even that's stopped working. Can anyone help me figure this out?
FYI - I put the file on my Mac and it works fine there. I can export, make changes, debug, anything I like. It's just on my windows work machine.

Hi,
Please zip up all of your files, change .zip extension to .zzz and email it to my attention at [email protected] Please also add the link to this thread. I'll take a look at it.

Re speeding up track then slowing down

Hi..
I have a battery toy ... which I have recorded the sound from. This goes on to an animation and I need the track to distort and speed up and then slow down as for winding down... any help please would be very welcome.
Also it goes underwater from time to time.....

Go to applications > utilities > activity monitor
Sort them by cpu usage and if there are programs that are taking up a massive amount of cpu, then you should quit those apps. If you are watching videos on the internet (especially youtube videos) that will take up a lot of cpu.

Why has OS X Mountain Lion caused my powerbook to slow way down?

Why has OS X Mountain Lion caused my powerbook to slow way down? With OS X Lion and Snow Leopard my laptop was very fast--now it seems to take foever to load or respond. It there something I am missing? Help, as I am very frustrated.

First, back up all data immediately, as your boot drive may be failing.
Take these steps when you notice the problem.
Step 1
Launch the Activity Monitor application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Activity Monitor in the page that opens.
Select the CPU tab of the Activity Monitor window.
Select All Processes from the menu in the toolbar, if not already selected.
Click the heading of the % CPU column in the process table to sort the entries by CPU usage. You may have to click it twice to get the highest value at the top. What is it, and what is the process? Also post the values for % User, % System, and % Idle at the bottom of the window.
Select the System Memory tab. What values are shown in the bottom part of the window for Page outs and Swap used?
Next, select the Disk Activity tab. What approximate values are shown for Reads in/sec and Writes out/sec?
Step 2
You must be logged in as an administrator to carry out this step.
Launch the Console application in the same way as above. Make sure the title of the Console window is All Messages. If it isn't, select All Messages from the SYSTEM LOG QUERIES menu on the left.
Post the 50 or so most recent messages in the log — the text, please, not a screenshot.
Important: Some personal information, such as your name, may appear in the log. Edit it out before posting.

Firfox slowing way down or hanging and task manager has multiple sessions of "plugin-container.exe *32" running.

I'm running Win 7, Firefox 10.0.2 and all my plug-ins are up to date. I'm having issues with Firfox slowing way down or hanging, let say like when going to Youtube or site that just has a picture that uses Flash. I go to task manager and have multiple sessions of “plugin-container.exe *32" running at anywhere from 2,000k to over 300,000k (only one at the larger amount and most at 2m to 8m). I have to kill the multiple processes to get it running right again.

Hi kb11,
Have you looked at our [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/firefox-slow-or-takes-too-long-start performance troubleshooting section]? There is a lot of good information in there that should help.
Hopefully this helps!

My IMac 21.5 mid 2010's HD is going bad on it, after upgrading to mavericks it slowed way down and after it shut off and now won't come back on, would Seagate Barracuda ST2000DM001 2TB Serial ATA Hard Drive - 7200RPM, 64MB, SATA 6Gb/s worked?

My IMac 21.5 mid 2010's HD is going bad on it, after upgrading to mavericks it slowed way down and after it shut off and now won't come back on, I call apple support and they told me to bring it in but the nearest store is about two hours away. They said I need it to erase my hard drive but I have too many family pics on it.
would Seagate Barracuda ST2000DM001 2TB Serial ATA Hard Drive - 7200RPM, 64MB, SATA 6Gb/s worked on it? I could replace the internal and get an enclosure for the original until I get the pics out of it?
Please advise, it's like five years of family pics I don't wanna loose them and I am worried.
Thanks

A Brody,
I really apprecate your very quick respond, Its too late to back up as of now, my hard drive wont load at all so I cannot follow your instruction to back it up. Learn a hard lesson but I will from now on following your link.
Also my hard drive it is not available to do the free exchange program.
I read the OWC instruction on how to replace the drive I was just wondering if the 2TB would work on it instead of the 1 TB they offer, I specifically asked for the Seage Barracuda because I had great experiences with it on PCs.
Again, Thank you

Progress bar at gray screen, then shuts down

Hello. I work in a private high school and a staff member handed me his MacBook Pro (13-inch, Mid 2012). He says that in the process of doing updates (he was non-specific about what it was updating), he shut the display and now it won't ever fully boot. This is what I observe: Connect power adapter to it, confirm laptop is fully charged, press power button. At the initial gray screen, the black apple shows and a black progress bar appears at the bottom (not the spinning gear), which gets part-way through and then promptly shuts down. Sometimes it gets through the progress bar and the spinning gear for a few seconds before it shuts down.
I've booted to the Recovery Partition and run Disk Utility on the physical volume... and the physical hard drive appears to be fine. Since I've left my external USB drive with Maverick's installed, I'll have to wait until tomorrow to attempt cloning the drive and/or pulling off a copy of the user accounts. Once I get a copy complete, I may try a full restore, but...
In the meanwhile, does anyone have any ideas as to what might be causing this problem?
I have seen several other related threads in these forums, but most suggest that it may be a physically damaged hard drive, which isn't appearing to be the case here (at least not yet). Another post suggested that it may be a video issue, but it boots fine into the Recovery Partition. Do you think it's possible that one of the updates was a firmware update that never got properly installed due to his shutting the display-lid? Another post suggested trying to boot in Safe Mode, but that also fails similarly.
I'm open to ideas and suggestions.

IMac first shows progress bar on startup and then won't start up at all!

Hi,
My iMac's somewhat ill I'm afraid. When I power it up, the Apple gong goes and I see the grey Apple logo appear. Few seconds later an progress bar shows up and it doesn't fill, in a minute it'll just disappears and the spinning thing under the logo appears. I've been waiting for over an hour and still nothing happened. I've tried force-powering it off and boot it up again, but still the same results, this is very very very annoying, especially since I don't know what to do at all about this expect for a complete clean install, but that'll be the last option I want, because all my photo's are on it, etc.
I've installed, an complete clean install, of Snow Leopard a month or two ago, and yesterday I powered the computer off the regular way.
Thanks a lot in advance you guys!
EDIT
Another weird thing going on: I have my hard drive configured in two partition, one for Windows (sorry, needed to run AutoCad) and one for Mac OS. Now when I start up with the option button I get to see the two partitions and their names. My Mac drive now has got a different name, it's the same name, but with a " 1" behind it.
When I select the partition on Windows Vista, it now shows these disturbing folders:

HI and Welcome to Apple Discussions...
Boot from your install disc and run Disk Utiity to see if there are errors on the startup disk that need repairing.
Insert your install disk and Restart, holding down the "C" key until grey Apple appears.
Go to Installer menu and launch Disk Utility.
Select your HDD (manufacturer ID) in the left panel.
Select First Aid in the Main panel.
*(Check S.M.A.R.T Status of HDD at the bottom of right panel. It should say: Verified)*
Click Repair Disk on the bottom right.
If DU reports disk does not need repairs quit DU and restart.
If DU reports errors Repair again and again until DU reports disk is repaired.
When you are finished with DU, from the Menu Bar, select Utilities/Startup Manager.
Select your start up disk and click Restart
While you have the Disk Utility window open, look at the bottom of the window. Where you see Capacity and Available. *Make sure there is always 10% to 15% free disk space*
If you cannot boot from your install disc, try booting in Safe Mode
What is Safe Mode
*" because all my photo's are on it, etc."*
If you can get the iMac to boot normally I suggest you back up those photos and any other important data to an external source ASAP in case there's a problem.
No idea why you are seeing those folders in Windows. Boot from your install disc and see what's going on.

When i turn my mac on i get the white screen and a progress bar that when finished shuts the computer down

i recently came back from holiday and tried to start up my laptop (that stayed at home, just shutdown but plugged in). when i turned it on, i got the apple white screen, a timer wheel and a progress bar that when it reached the end of the bar, it just shut the computer down again. i cannot get past this screen and the mac will not turn on. does anybody know how i can fix this please?

Your hard drive is dead and you'll need a new one. If you're the least bit handy, you can replace the drive yourself. You need to decide what capacity and speed you want out of a new drive.
I'm hoping that you had backup schemes in place? If not, there's a chance that, with a tool such as DiskWarrior, you MIGHT be able to grab some data from your dead/dying drive.

What's with the 12 hour Export progress bar?

That's what it says, and that's after two hours of trying to encode a 20 minute clip using Export to QuickTime Conversion. It's 11% done. At this rate, it should be ready after midnight, EST. This can't be normal, or is it?
I did increase the bit rate and the dimensions, but those were the recommendations of the web viewer page (ExposureRoom) which I intend to upload the file to.
Is there an easier to get a web file with decent size and resolution?

Yeah, I think about faster, newer Macs as well, but you know what? In OS 9 the NLE I use (not FCE) has an encoder called Cleaner EZ - now out of business and support and updates - that gives me a compressed file in about 35 mins. It's fine for just putting something up that's casual, but I need a file that's sharp, since there's text in a PowerPoint presentation that people have to read. That's why I thought FCE/QuickTime would do the job.
Maybe it will in the end, but at present, I'm looking at 17 hours at 15% - something's amiss.,,in fact, it's absurd..would Apple make a product that took till next week to render files? And this 2003 MDD isn't all that old, really. (And I can't afford a new Pro either). I don't think its the computer. I also tried this footage in Compressor.... an MPEG 4 fast encode - and it split the video and audio into two files How am I supposed to get that up on the Web? A second try with FCE at normal settings for QT conversion only gave me a 56 MB file - looked awful.
Also, I should add that my original footage is SD. Generally that comes off fine when compressed from the 4.4 GB for the 20 mins. down to about 500MB, or even less. What I'm working with is a self-contained movie at the orginal size, of4.4 GB.
Any help appreciated,
thanks,
k.

IMovie 10.0.2 slowed way down exporting movies

it was hitting the system (mac mini, OSX 10.9.1, 8GB RAM, 2.6GHz Intel Core i7) fairly hard and making good progress through the background queue, but now it is only using 4% CPU and hardly making any progress.
it doesn't seem to be hitting the disk either.
is there a log file so i can tell what it's doing in the background?
is there a CPU cap suddenly in place?
how do i tell it to use MORE CPU?
my system is pretty solidly between 95% and 98% idle.
thanks in advance,
jeff

figured out part of it-- the part where it's using no resources and not making progress on the exports: sometimes when i quit out of iMovie and it has to cancel background processes, there's a process that doesn't die like it should. in ps it starts like this:
/Applications/iMovie.app/Contents/PlugIns/Compressor/CompressorKit.bundle/Conten ts/Frameworks/Compressor.framework/Versions/A/Frameworks/StompUtil.framework/Res ources/ProTranscoderTool_sb
if i kill that process, then when i start iMovie up again it uses more CPU (10-20%) and does the exports like it should.
it doesn't seem to be thrashing the disk; pity i can't get it to utilize more of the CPU...
-jeff

I pressed RESUME instead of NEW SESSION how do I get that option back to stop what seems to be my Firefox on a continuous loop and then slowing everything down. I have Mac OS X with Windows?

Firefox keeps opening a forum tab and lots of other tabs show up at the top of the screen and little curly things going round and round (sorry to sound so technical !)

It is possible that there is a problem with the files sessionstore.js and sessionstore.bak in the Firefox Profile Folder.
Delete the sessionstore.js [2] file and possible sessionstore-##.js [3] files with a number and sessionstore.bak in the Firefox Profile Folder.
*Help > Troubleshooting Information > Profile Directory: Open Containing Folder
*http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox
Deleting sessionstore.js will cause App Tabs and Tab Groups and open and closed (undo) tabs to get lost, so you will have to create them again (make a note or bookmark them).
