Render time changed from 10 to 56 hours. Help!

Hi, we are working on a wedding video of 3 hours. Earlier when we rendered it last week, it took around 11 hours to finish.
After that, we have only very few changes to the video. For example, we installed Red Gaint Looks and also used Lumitri Looks , for which we made 3 adjustment layers and on each layer, those looks were applied. Thats all, what we changed.
I also upgraded my Nividia 670 graphics driver to the latest version.
You can see my sequence here,

Here is my PC configuration, http://d.pr/i/i9Lk
Here is the performance monitor, while Media Encoder was running, http://d.pr/i/OeLG

Weird!
I have used Looks on CS6 last year extensively and done 5-8 wedding videos and it was never a problem.
Since I bought CC, Im facing al this issues.
Not happy with CC at all.
Anyone else facing the same problem ?
Lumetri is too bad, dont have any presets as good as looks and I dont think, if there is any way we can convert a Looks file to Lumetri looks file. Anyone ?

evry time after sync. my iphone 4 ios 4.3.3 with itunes 10.3.1.55 the time change up one more hour ,, please tell me what can i do to solve this problem

This year, the government has canceled the daylight saving time , that's why happening this problem to me so I changed the time zone in iPhone from Cairo,Egypt (GMT+2 with daylight saving) to Harare,Zimbabwe (GMT+2 without daylight saving , no change in time from summer & winter) & now working good, no change in time after sync. , But it's very stupid thing from apple that they didn't add an option in time setting to enable or disable the daylight saving time like any other mobile.

How do I change the new iTunes play list total time display from 1.5 hours format to exact display of 1hr 31min 12sec.

In the new iTunes the play list total time displays in 1.5 hours format, how do I get it to clearly show 1hr 31min 12sec like before, I want the exact time so I can properly fit all the songs when I want to burn this playlist to a disc. You can no longer just click on it to change the display format. Nor can you right click, control click, or change it in options. If anyone knows I would very much appreciate your imput. Thank You.

Actually, that's the problem ... in iTunes *11* it has stopped working. I have the status bar displayed, and it is stuck on the 1.x hours format.
That is very, very strange !!
I can't get that to happen on mine. It worked in 11.0 and I updated today to 11.0.1 and it's OK.
I've tried making a new playlist, I've tried changing an old playlist, smart playlist ...... all OK ????

IPhone time changes itself to 1 hour fast

Hi, I have had an 8GB iPhone for about 3 days. Everything had been ok except for the time and camera...so I took it to the store today and the Genius was unsure about the time problem but replaced my phone due to the camera issue hoping the time issue would also be resolved...(camera issue = photos have red center with green halo)
So I got home with the new phone and synced it. It was initially fine but I hooked it back up with the computer to add some pictures and when i did it immediatly added 1 hour to the time. Now I am unsure what to do as the first phone also did it for the Genius at the store (so we are pretty sure it is not just my computer since theirs did it too).
I now have all of the automatic time features turned off so that the time has to be set manually and it is still changing the time itself and adding 1 hour to the time.
I have all of the most current software updates (iTunes & iPhone)...since my phone is so new, I have not used the phone without the most current update.
Is anyone else having this problem and if so have you been able to resolve it and how? I would just hate to have to go back to the store again if it is something I can resolve myself...
Thanks for any and all help,
Rebecca

Hey fred,
Is the iPhone attached to a PC or Mac?
is the time correct on the computer? Is the time zone correct?
Try resetting the iPhone.

Also, make sure it is updated to 1.1.1 software.

Mistakenly changed from NTSC to PAL - Help!

My display settings on my mac mini were changed from NTSC to PAL (all i will say is that it involved a 3 year old) and now i can't get an output to my display. how do i change this??

Try starting in Safe mode. If that works, change the resolution from whatever is the starting resolution to another choice. For example, if it comes up at 640 x 480 NTSC, change to 800 x 600 NTSC. Then restart normally. Hopefully that will get things back to the way they were before.

Time Conversion from Local to UTC Help! - Daylight Savings Problem?

Hi,
I am trying to use the generic conversion of local time to UTC time. I thought I had everything working since I use the "Get Date/Time in Seconds" and then convert to "Seconds to Date/Time" witht the "to UTC" flag set true. Then I convert back to a timestamp.
I thought I had everything working until I hit Daylight Savings for the Pacific Standard Time. Now the Labview is off by 1 hour!
Is there an update to the Subvi's that do this? Is this a known error? Please help. Thank you!

Here is the path you are doing that is causing the logic to fall apart for you.
1. You are getting the current time. In your images, it is 12:41 pm PDT which is 7:41 pm GMT
2. You are asking for the date/time record (that cluster that breaks out everything) but are saying it is UTC, so you get a date/time record that 19:41 UTC (7:41 pm). And the DST flag is 0. (Because UTC doesn't observe daylight savings time.)
3. Now you are taking that date/time record and converting back to an actual date/time. You don't wire up the UTC flag so it defaults to false. Thus the date/time record is interpreted as local. That DST flag is still 0 in your cluster. So you are actually converting the time to 7:41 pm PST, which is actually 8:41 PDT. (+1 hour for spring forward based on the month/date info.)
4. You are displaying that time stamp in the indicator labelled "Current Date/Time (UTC)", but it is not truly UTC, it is actually the conversion of a local time from PST to PDT, and it is not even the current local time. It is actually a "local" time 8 hours into the future. If you put the carat into that indicator's display format, you'll see that the UTC time is in the future as well. You call it UTC, but you are displaying a future local time.
The inconsistent conversions from local to UTC, and not accounting for the change of the DST flag from daylight time to UTC are what is confusing you. You kind of get lucky during standard time because the DST flag is 0 for both local standard time and UTC. But the conversions are still wrong, but it is a case of two wrongs are making it look right. Even in standard time your input timestamp and your output timestamp indicator don't match which you would see if you used an Equals? function on them.

Long render time with premiere pro CS5 lately, help!

lately my premiere pro CS5 render extremely slow
i have a 6GB ram 64bit windows 7
is it normal to render a 10 minutes quicktime/h264 codec in 5 hours?
please take a note that this happened recently, so i think my pc spec. should not be the problem
thanks in advance

You start off with the wrong sequence settings. To resolve that, right click on a clip in the project panel and select 'New Sequence from Clip". That will give you the correct sequence setting for your source material.
When exporting, never use QuiRcktime, since it is a 32 bit application, plagued with numerous severe problems, hence the name. Use plain 64 bit H.264 codec for exporting. If you use Maximum Render Quality, your export can take many times longer than without that checked.
Your memory and presumably the rest of your system (please give details) is not up to this task, especially not when you start with the wrong sequence settings, export with a 32 bit codec and have MRQ turned on.

My iPod keeps shutting off when I go into certain apps. It started tonight and has done it about 3-5 times in the last 2 hours, help?

My iPod keeps shutting off when I go onto apps. It has shut off about 3-5 times in the last hour. Help?

Try the standard fixes:
- Reset. Nothing is lost
Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Restore from backup
- Restore to factory defaults/new iPod.

UCCX changing time variables from AM to PM and vice-versa

Hi all.
I have an extremely irritating issue that I'm hoping someone can shed some light on.
I'm currently making improvements to one of our contact centre scripts. We require to activate redirection on the fly quite often, and in the past I used a modified script with different time of day tests.Going forward I wanted to provide the ability for this to be activated and times set through the GUI.
So I made some variables as parameters, of note these are RedirectOperation (boolean), RedirectFrom (Time) and RedirectUntil(Time).
The flow is that if RedirectOperation is true, a time test is performed to dictate when we redirect - this is in the form of:
(T[now] >= RedirectFrom) && (T[now] <= RedirectUntil)
Now I know I can use T[now].before(xxx) etc but the operation itself isn't the issue, it does work perfectly fine this way, but the times change from AM <<>> PM under certain conditions.
To explain:
I set the default (on the script itself) RedirectFrom to "T[6:00:00 PM]" and RedirectUntil to "T[11:59:59 PM]".
When debugging the script, I can see that the system changes the times from PM to AM (under the variable list on CCX editor during a reactive debug) ! That's if I've not selected these parameters on the GUI. If however, I do select the parameters and still use the default values, when debugging, they stay as PM!!
This is surely a bug??
To try something else, I changed my time format to 24 hour clock - so 18:00:00 and 23:59:59 respectively. I can set these on the script itself, and if the parameters are unchecked and left at default, it works fine. However when I select the parameter and try to change the times to (for example) 19:00:00 and 22:59:59, the GUI spits an error saying:"* Please enter a valid date for the Date configurable variable." I can only assume there is a mismatch between what you're allowed to put into the script and what the GUI thinks you're allowed to.
But certainly the script surely should not be changing between AM and PM when a variable is left to default??
Any ideas would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks in advance.
Scotty

After choosing your start time you should be able to click to the right to change from AM to PM or vice versa by using the up/down button. I just did it.
If your DVR is not cooperating, try rebooting it.

My appointments changed from 11:00 to 10:00, how can this be?

hi guys,
I have an problem with my Iphone 3gs. What happened is that the time changed from summertime (DST) to wintertime, but so did my appointments. So when I got a appointment at 11:00, now it says; 10:00. This is not what I had in mind.
Can somebody please help me solve this problem?
Greetings,
Kevin van der Kuijp

found a other discussion about it.

I know that there have been lots of posts about render times

but can someone explain the dramatic increase in render times when I upgraded to fcp 5.0 from 4.5. I am rendering a project originally started in 4.5 and it is only 2 minutes of ntsc dv 48khz. My render times went from 2-3 min (5 max in a bigger project) to 47 minutes. I used very few transitions. This is a very straight forward project and it is making me nutty.
Thanks
Jim

One contributing factor may be that the sampling has been switched from Fast Linear (the only option in pre-5) to Medium, which takes longer. Try ctrl-clicking on your sequence and selecting Settings... and changing it and see if you don't get an improvement.

Theme Duration Time Change?

I am using iMovie 6 HD.
I want to change the duration time of the Theme I am using. It defaults to about 6 seconds, but I want to make it longer.
In the help section is says using can change the duration of of Theme, but dragging the one of the edges in the Timeline, but but that does not appear to work. What am I doing wrong.

I have the same issue:
- Chilean gov deffered time change from March 12th to April 28th.
- A complete description can be found at Microsoft, since they have anticipated this and provided a solution:

A similar note/patch from apple would be great...

FCPro Render times - much longer with different Sequence?

Has anyone else noticed this? For many years I have worked with just a few Sequences in FCPro, and the render times seem to be similar in them all - at least that I've noticed. When I slow motion scenes, or render simple graphics - I kind of have a feel for how long I have to wait for various things. Both with my MacBook Pro (2010) and Mac Tower (2 years old). I've always found render times, not excessive. Usually I've worked with DVCProHD.
BUT NOW . . . I'm noticing I'm waiting 2 to 3 times longer for any render. By NOW, I mean since I bought the XF300 and am natively importing 50mbs 12x720 footage into FCPro. (I overcrank a lot, so I tend to stay with 720.) It can now be done after the firmware upgrade a few months back. I love how much faster "native" import is, and I love it using 50mbs as it should, not 70mbs, which it did using ProRez import.
BUT I'm noticing much longer times to render in the XDCAM 422 720p30. Render screen says "conforming edited MPEG-2." Of course, this takes away some of the excitement, and is downright annoying! Has anyone else noticed this, or is it just me? Can render times change significantly, depending simply on the timeline Sequence setting? If they do, I'll just live with it - but I need reassuring that it's normal to take much 2 or 3 times the time - or I'm kinda hoping I'm doing something wrong!
Thanks,
Larry

OK Shane, I've done a bit of work here - this might surprise you? Maybe you'll learn something, we'll find out. But you've certainly been helpful to me!
OK, I took a 5 minute Sequence, shot with the Canon XF300, imported natively into FCPro. The test here is to now render in XDCAN vs. render in Prorez. I LOVE Logging & Transferring in NATIVE as the files are 30% smaller (50mbs vs. 70mbs - and that goes for the ProRez exports as Self Contained movies, too - 70 vs. 50mbs.)
So now it gets interesting . . . to render the 5 minute movie using XDCAM HD rendering (same codec) as importing footage = 5 minutes to render the timeline. Not much rendering was needed. Coincidentally, 5:00 even to render about a 5 minute movie. The total render "space" it used was 932meg.
Now . . . I did the same render (after I deleted all renders) but this time I had it render in ProRez instead. It took 3:30. Soooo, it saved 1:30 in the rendering process. GOOD! So we "learned" FCPro renders faster in ProRez as compared with XDCAM, which is exactly what you said! Oh, it ony used 832 meg for the ProRez renders, which means not only is ProRez faster to render, but it uses about 10% less space to actually "do"it.
But here's the GLITCH I can't explain. I then exported to self contained movie (which we normally do in our workflow, master to a self contained movie to save). In the XDCAM render sequence, it takes 1:35 to export to self contained movie, about normal for a 5 minute movie. But the ProRez render took almost 6 minutes to export!!
WHY would it take over 3 times longer to export the ProRez sequence compared to the XDCAM sequence? This is what didn't make sense to me. (I'm wondering maybe in the export process, FCPro doesn't "see" the (ProRez) renders and has to rerender it just to export it? And that's why the export time is so much longer with ProRez? What do you think?
So to sum up, NATIVE import is faster and smaller files. Then ProRez render is faster and smaller files. So I'll do that! BUT then it takes longer to export the "ProRez" rendered Sequence You just can't win!!! If you have a 60 minute timeline, it's seriously longer!
Do your findings parallel mine? Anyway, thanks for your time, and if you can't tinker with this, I certainly understand. I'm just trying to setup a workflow here. I've tested this 3 times, my results are consistent.
Thanks again,
Larry

Consolidating FX generators for better render time?

"There were no places results found for render time"
Wow. OK.
I have used a generator to create a collection of photos-- I used the same genertaor affect about 6 times in a row in end credits
And it seems this has created a render time of an additional 4 hours.
Overnight render time wasnormal-- BEFORE i added seveal of these photo generators in 40 min documentary.
Can anyone advise as to whether consolidating those generators will save on render time?
Also, it would be nice to not have to wait a day each time I want to se a rendered version of my work, in case anyone has created a list of pointers beyond the obvious stuff. I am on a macpro w 16 gigs RAM.
I have many event folders (15 ish). If I consolidate all of these (as advised on youtube tutorials), will their be a big difference in render time?
Event folders are spread out on 3 different drives. Is thgis truely adding to render times... or not? I do not want to risk loss of data or a technical nightmare after 6 mos of work.
I do not want to make any changes that jeoporodize my project. Havn't upgraded to 10.1 yet, as every slight change seems to bring with it more troubleshooting and tutorials to review.
In some disucssions, I am warned about the additional procesing power required by consolidated files. But if my render time is suddenly double after adding therse generators, I have to wonder if consolidating them would be the answer. I do NOT have another 24 hours to get simple answers to questions via test renders. Sometimes after an overnight render, I get a render failure error message, etc.
Thanks.
I am using Event Manager x

I am aware I am pushing this to the edge of it's dsign abilities. I get spinning ball for a few seconds when I do just about anything. Even ther simplest thing. Like chnaging location in timeline. I am on 10.7.5-- partly due to reason relating to my Avid Pro Tools HD recording setup.
The generator that seesm to be a processing hog is Prowall plugin by Pixel Films FX.
and I'll show you the way the plugins look (orange)-- about 6 generators back to back.Each holding about 8 pics. I found that even with consolidating, it still is a very slow render--- I attempted render only the 1 minute portion where the 6 generators happen (after consdolidating!) and after an hr it showed only 8% progress. So that little test would cost me a full work day. Argghhh!
Thanks for any advice you can offer!

Pages reverts document to old version after time change

Just went through the automatic change from Daylight Savings to EST and an hour or so afterward, I open a Pages document to find that the past four weeks of work had been lost. This copy was saved on my internal Mac HD. The iCloud version of the document contained only one sentence; a single save event from when it was first created.
Fortunately my Time Machine rode to the rescue, but this was very unsettling to lose that much work so easily.
I don't know if this was related to the auto time change from Daylight Savings screwing up the document's version control or merely coincidental. I'd like to get an understanding of what happended here. In the meantime, I've fired up my Vista VM and now working on the document in Word.
Pages is 09 v 4.2 (1008), the OS is 10.8.2 on an i7 8GB Mac. Safari and Mail were the only other apps open at the time. The document contains only text with no embbed objects. Nothing unusal about the fonts either. It is about as ordinary and simple a document as one can get.

Hi guys,
Thanks for the replies. I was starting to wonder if it was just me having this issue. I'm saving to my work PC laptop (Lenovo), but has has this also on my Mac.
I've read about the network and external drives issue, but I've always avoided working anywhere else but my internal HDs. Not using graph tool but it's hard to narrow it down as I work on so many different projects at the same time.The latest file has been saved as something new and modified a couple of times (complex vector icons, but no shading/3D nor links). I do NOT have the "save compatible pdf"nor compression options enabled.
Other designers at work don't seem to have this issue, but they don't work with AI as often as myself, and mostly stick to the standard features.I would really like to figure this out as it's slowing me down and surely getting other people to wonder what I'm doing with my time (besides spending it here ).
Is it possible Adobe is unaware of this problem???
