Renders Takes Ages A 15 min Video 720p takes 6 hours

Well, I tried to render a 15 min video with Adobe Media Encoder and it took 6 hours, i have rendered 720p videos before and it worked and it didnt take 6 hours Can someone please help me

I paused the video because it took so long i had to pause it and resume it the next day

But as I said it only started when i updated to 5.01, i have tried reinstalling it and this time it took 3 hours to save a 5 min video, it isnt just this video it does this to, when i tried to render other videos it did the same
Rendering use to just take 30 mins to a hour

Does saving video/rendering take 4 hours?

Hi,
I just bought myself a brand new computer because I couldn't do anything with Adobe Premiere Elements 12 on my old computer. Here is what I have on my new computer if this helps. I am not a technical person so I have no idea anything about anything technical.
Processor
4th Generation Intel® Core i7-4500U (1.8 GHz 200 MHz 4MB)
Operating System
Windows 8.1 64
Graphics

I am trying to do basic editing. I have a bunch of little .avi files that I am trying to upload and edit into one long family video. I've done that, edited out what I want. Added some text title dates and I am rendering/saving as an MPEG file.
It takes 4 hours to render to an MPEG file? OMG! And then I wanted to eventually download it to a DVD. Does it have to the the 4 hours over again? And it's very slow. Is it supposed to be so slow?

I am not ready to go the route of "slow computer" yet to explain your 4 hour export time.
By basic editing, does that include effects additions such as Stabilizer?
Given you have Premiere Elements 12 on Windows 8.1 64 bit. That gives you a 64 bit application with the resource perks that come with 64 bit application in a 64 bit system. What are the properties of these .avi files that you are importing, and what are you or the project setting for the project preset?
Are you dealing with DV AVI standard or widescreen and, if so, type 1 or 2? What is the duration of the Timeline content that you are exporting Publish+Share/Computer/MPEG? And, what specific preset are you using? Are you using the default settings for the preset or customizing the preset under the Advanced Button of the preset?
My first instinct is to suggest 8 GB installed RAM instead of 4 GB, but I would prefer to see the information above first.
I noted that you said that you were not technically based. But, please try to answer the above as best you can. I will help you find the answers if necessary.
In all this, I am assuming that you are not multitasking while you are working with Premiere Elements export.
The export time is going to be influenced by the complexity of the Timeline and the state of the computer environment. Let us see if there is an alternative conclusion other than slow computer for your 4 hour export time when all the facts are in.
Thanks.

I make videos using my go pro hd camera, but when i export it only half of my 3 min video shows up with the audio playing in the background, plus when i try to select the quality in the export options it won't let me select 720p or 1080p?????? help!!!

What you could do now is break up your video into smaller parts and render them out, then assemble them again as a whole.
I know this is not the best fix, but it might work.
You can duplicate an edit in the main screen, then delete the last bits and export,
do the same for the other half.
Then import the two bits (or more if you need) in a new edit.
Out of curiosity, can you post what format the video is in?
Copy a video straight from the camera to your computer.
Open it in Quicktime player, and with out playing type Apple + i
or Control + i for PCs
It should tell you lots of info about the video, and might help us to see what is wrong.
This is what it looks like:

Your current settings should match the source material in your timeline. Though, it probably doens't matter what it is as long as your settings are not for a highly compressed format like h.264 or mpeg2.
iDVD should take any all "I" frame format and encode it. (All I frame formats include DV, DVCProHD, ProRes).

Rendering .mov file takes 2 hours?!

Hello. I am new to using Final Cut Express. I tried adding a .mov video file I have to my timeline, did so easily. Then, in order to preview it, I had to render it. When I began the rendering process, it said it would take 2 hours to render my roughly 3 minute long clip. Does anyone know why this might be? I asked around and was told it takes roughly 2 minutes to render individual clips. I experimented by placing a significant larger video file in the project and it rendered quickly, as well as various file formats. All worked fine. I'm wondering if maybe it has to do with the framerate or proportion of the .mov video file? If so, how do I change/check these properties? Please help me! Thanks.

The codec is there. Compressor. Why don't you just give everything it says. The low frame rate means there's a lot of interpolation going on to get it up to 29.97 or 25 fps.
The material is really not suitable for production, especially with FCE. It's too small for HD, and too big for SD, which anyway compresses the media a lot to conform to DV. The HD codec Apple Intermediate is better, but the video is too small for even the smallest standard sized video.
FCP is resolution independent and also works with more codec that would be useful for this media. Though this depends on where you're trying to get to and what you want to do with the video once you've finished editing it. How do you need to deliver it?

Why did this mini-video fail to go viral?

Why did this mini-video fail to go viral?
I created this short motion graphics project in AE and PR Pro for my hearing protection client in Switzerland for their "Sleep Plugs" product. She asked for a European look and feel, where tasteful nudity is common in advertising. Our target demographic is males, aged 18-35. The client posted it at her Zurich-based company’s website and hoped it would spread virally. We believed there was actually a good chance of that happening since we have three main elements of a viral video: sexiness, surprise, and humor. However, the number of views was much lower than we had hoped.
Please watch the video (it's just 30 seconds) before reading my comments and questions below so that I don't influence your first impression.

Please give me your thoughts on these questions:
1. It was my intention to set the viewer up to expect that the couple was going to have sex, then to provide some unexpected humor when she goes to sleep and snores instead. Did you think that was funny?
2. In an ideal world, this would have been live video, but, for budget constraints, and since there would've been very little movement in a video anyway, we went for a graphic approach, basically a pan across a wide, horizontal photo, with music bed and voiceovers, and logo/tagline at the end. Do you think this was an acceptable compromise?
3. With the outtake-style photos at the end, It was my intention to add a touch of silliness and show that we are not taking ourselves too seriously. Do you think that worked?
4. What do you think of the voiceovers?
5. What do you think of the choice of music? (I wish we could have had Marvin Gaye's "Let's Get It On"! altho, not sure how big that is with 18-35 year old males in Switzerland.)
6. These next two may be the most important questions: the context the video was presented in. My intention was to have the viewer sucked in by the sexy partial image and want to know more, thinking "What is this? . . . a joke? . . . porn?!?" (remember, they are 18-35 yr old males!) and watch it long enough to get to the joke and the appearance of the product. (I know I have watched several videos that turned out to be ads, but they were so entertaining and well done, I did not mind. In fact, I admired how they sucked me in!)
My client posted the link to the video on her company Facebook page, with the comment "Check out our new video." The link led to her company's official website and the video appeared on a page surrounded by other text, photos, and the company's name. It is my opinion that this took away some of the incentive to watch the video, since now the viewer already knows it is going to be an advertisement. Would you agree?
7. I feel the video should've been presented "in a vacuum", so the viewer would have no fore-knowledge of what it was or why their buddy forwarded it to them. I think links to most viral videos lead to YouTube or Vimeo (not to a company website.) What do you think would be the best method of distribution for this little video?
And, if you have any other thoughts, please let me know.
Thank you for your time and consideration,

Hi Carol,
I have to agree with Jim. A still image screams 'cheap'. If I didn't watch the video with the intention of providing feedback, I would have tuned out after about 5 seconds, before even getting to the 'punch line'. With so many bad videos on YouTube, people's attention span have been reduced to mere seconds. If we don't like what we see in the first few seconds, we tune out and click on another link. I imagine many people who watch this video never get to the end since the moment they see it's a still image that probably won't change to live action, they think 'cheap' and tune out.
For a video to go viral, people have to want to pass it on to all of their contacts. For this to happen, they have to imagine that others will thank them for sharing the video, not roll their eyes and ask 'Why are you wasting my time with this?' "sexiness, surprise, and humor" are not enough for a video to go viral. You also need great execution.
3. Didn't work for me. It makes it look like the commercial and product are a joke, especially hearing the guy's laughter in the background. First the commercial would have to sell us on why the product is worthwhile/needed, which is doesn't.
4. The girl's voice is sexy, but it does not match the visuals, thus it ends up sounding fake and unnatural.
The guy's tatoo is a huge distraction. Is it a human heart? Why is it there?
Low budget doesn't have to mean a cheap look. Unfortunately the titles and the transitions (push, ripple dissolve) at the end also scream cheap. Nobody uses these kinds of effects on TV, so it's best to leave these for home videos and out of any professional work. Push transitions can work, but usually only if it's a quick transition, around 3-8 frames long. Slow push transitions scream 'Power Point', which in turn screams 'cheap'.
Hope this helps!
Cheers

After Effects CS6 rendering takes forever

I am currently working on After Effects CS6 and I'm wondering why it takes a long time for me to render a composition. I am not sure if the problem is with the mac that i am using or with the settings i have on AE. When I render the composition of 21 seconds video with 1080p 29.97fps it takes 5 hours and eralier i triend rendering again and it takes 7 hours. is this normal? Please help me.
I am using Mac with this spe
Processor 2 x 2.4 GHz 6-Core Intel Xeon
Memory 12 GB 1333 MHz DDR3 ECC
Graphics ATI Radeon HD 5770 1024 MB
Here's the screenshot of my render queue
HOPE YOU CAN HELP ME AS SOON AS POSSIBLE! THANKS!

Your screenshot has been scaled so much that we can not really see any details about the comp, only some general information about the render cue, but that looks like a lot of 3D layers, some lighting, and some movement. As Mynenium said, this may be completely normal. Many of my more complex projects take four or five minutes per frame to render. It all depends on the assets.
A suggestion for speeding things up is to make all of your artwork no bigger than it will appear in the final comp. If the images in this comp are the same size as the comp and they are never bigger than 1/8 of the comp window then you're wasting a lot of time scaling them down.
This project could also be done with Particular or other particle system. Same goes there, make sure that the artwork is not bigger than it needs to be.

Rendering takes overnight. Hardware recommendation.

Folks,
We are using CS5 to take still images and render into a MP4 video file. The original images take about 3 TB of space and the rendered movie is usually about 25G in size.
The problem we have is that the rendering takes about 8+ hours. The problem gets exacerbated when we realize that we made a mistake in syncing some audio parts incorrectly and have to start over the process. The syncing problems are common and have to be adjusted manually.
We would like to reduce the rendering time as much as possible and have a reasonably good budget for putting together a PC. I am wondering if anyone has any experience setting up an ultimate PC machine for rendering.
1. We were thinking of getting 64G DDR3 RAM. How much would this matter?
2. Does Adobe CS take advantage of GPU? We could put in a high end nVidia graphics card with 2G DDR5 memory.
3. Does Adobe CS take advantage of multi-core processors? Thinking of getting a quad-core i7 processor.
4. Would it reduce the time significantly if we use a SSD drive to write the output. We can't do much on the input size. We are delivered three 1TB disks with the still images.
Obviously, all the above things would probably help. However, don't want to get disappointed to find out that, after all the investment, our rendering time went down by only one hour. We would like to see the total rendering time in the range of 2-3 hours.
I guess the fundamental question to ask is where does Adobe CS spend most of its time during rendering. Perhaps just getting 64G RAM may be sufficient.
If there are any Adobe marketing guys lurking around this forum, please contact me. This could be a good case study to showcase. We could work on it together.
Regards,
Peter

The technically correct answer to your questions: No, Yes, Yes, No. The correct answer to your implied questions: No, No, No, No. Sorry buddy, other than getting the fastest processor you can get, nothing will speed up your encoding because:
Hardware acceleration only exists inside the programs for interactive editing and display purposes.
"headless" apps like Adobe Media Encoder never even initialize GPU features.
There are some hardware accelerated encoding features e.g. in Premiere Pro and with CS6 there may be even more, but at the end of the day, all of those are still dependent on specific settings/ encoding presets and may not at all work for your case.
Encoding to most output formats is strictly linear and thus single threaded to begin with.
SSDs only get faster with lots of small I/O transfers, not huge files. Anything that your existing RAID can't handle, an SSD won't cure, either.
RAM outfit is neglectible. No program on this planet loads data into RAM when direct stream processing is just as efficient.
So whatever you do, you cannot expect miracles. You may be able to shave off half of the time on a sparkly new machine with a fast RAID and the speediest core7i on the market, but everything else won't influence the result much, even more so as long as you only move in the confines of exporting and converting your Adobe projects directly and cannot resort to alternative tools for encoding...

How long to encode a 45 min video?

Using default settings how long should it take to in encode a 45 min video with only one title and 1 channel of sound
Computer running a Intel chip at 3.0 GHZ and 8 megs memory
Windows XP service pack 2
4 hours seems awfully long to me

I agree that it is too long. Normally, it takes me about 1hr 15 to do a 1 hr DVD, give, or take. This is on a dual Duo-core 3,4GB RAM XP-Pro SP3, with optimized I/O w/ about 5TB in physical internal HDDs, and no RAID machine, with multiple menus and AC3 Audio. Similar Projects of greater Duration onto DVD-9 (DL) take slightly over realtime. Last 3.5 hr DVD-9 was under 4 hours. Even with Projects that are on my FW-800 externals do not take much over that. I always have a Play First AVI, plus at least 2 Menus, and often Button Transitions. Now, my Timelines are always my Chapters, so each Timeline is only one Audio/Video stream.
My times are for Transcoding and also burning at 2x onto DVD and almost always with "automatic" Transcode.
Now, all of my Projects are DV-AVI elemental stream from PrPro, and AC3 Audio elemental stream. Even with an additional DTS soundtrack, it's still not more than realtime.
What are your Assets? How are your Timelines set up?
Next project, I'll put the stopwatch on it, and give you exact times.
Good luck,
Hunt

HT201317 I have over 300 photos and 87 videos on my iphone 5. each time I plug in for battery I get a message saying not enough space, need to buy more, so I did yesterday. While attempting to do icloud storage again it said would take 83 hours.

I have over 300 photos and 87 videos. When I recharge the battery I am geting the message to buy more storage to because not enough icloud space. So I did yesterday. That went ok, but the new message tells me it will take 83 hours. Perplexed I went thru the settings and turned off apps and their data that I didn't realize where on. Now I'm not sure if I needed to purchase more storage but it is still taking forever to complete the task. Am I on the right track with this, meaning will take forever to store all my photos or what ? The only other item I have on to store is contacts. Can you assist me ? Thanks - emoslim

Welcome to the Apple Community.
The first back up to iCloud may take some considerable time. Just how long isn't really possible to say without knowing how much is in your back up and your connection speed.
What many people don't realise is that upload speeds are often significantly less than download speeds, so for example a user may have a download speed of 40 Mbps, but only 1 Mbps for uploading. As a rough guide it will take around 2 ¼ hours to upload 1 GB of data at 1 Mbps.

Can i upload a 12 min. video to my ipod video ?

can i upload a 12 min. video to my ipod video ?

As a matter of interest you can load videos of any length up to your iPods hard drive capacity.
I have several 1.5 - 2 hour films which play perfectly.
How long your battery will last if you play them is, of course, a different matter.

Sharing 60 min video, high res and export to compressor settings

I have 60 minute dance concert video shot HD on memory card. Footage is 1920x1020. I tried to share using quicktime and file summary says 8gb..it takes 2 hours to "share" as h.264.....last 2 attempts it says file to large to save . To share as pro res (default) the file summary says 60 gb....should I get 32 gb flash or try to cut the footage into 2 projects, share separate and then try to merge during compressor? If I get past this hurdle I have more questions to improve DVD quality......

Do not alter your sequence settings. Leave the as they are.
On File>Export>Quicktime Movie or File>Export>Using Quicktime Conversion you'll have lots of options.
One of them is indeed h264. Of which in the other post is said that it s supported with windows.
You could export as h264, then rename the clip from Clipname.mov to Clipname.flv
Then flashplayer (installed on most computers) can play it.
If you really want to go to .wmv you'll need [Flip4Mac WMV Studio|http://www.telestream.net/flip4mac-wmv/wmv-studio.htm] (or Studio Pro or Studio Pro HD)

Rendering 1280x720 takes 27 hours for 30 minutes of footage.

Hi,
I am trying to edit footage from a Kodak Zi6. I converted it using MPEG Streamclip. I can open it in FCP but am having trouble finding an import setting which will allow me to not have to take 27 hours to render the clips once they are in FCP. Help Please!
Dave

The material is probably originally some version of h.264, which QT7 should understand.< </div>
Your issue is more about working the camera and making it work with FCP than it is about FCP. Don't forget to pop open the manual for the camera and to go hang out on whatever user forums are available for that camera model. It may shoot a nice high def picture but where are you going with your video? Do you expect to play from a computer? Standard DVD? Blu-ray? KNowing your output destination will make a lot of difference with the workflow we might suggest.
Video is hard. Really hard.
