What is the fastest video codec to render in premiere?

I'm looking/curious for the type of video codec that premiere renders fastest. Is it, h.264, .mov, .avi, etc...??
I export alot from After FX and i need to cut down on premiere rendering time, so i want to export the video that will render fast through premiere.
My computer is too slow to do dynamic link.
What type of video does premiere render that fastest?

Your Project setting is usually "native".  eg P2 mxf, HDV, DV etc... f it matches your source.
ie. match your project to your source and then you are basically "native"
If you import a file of the same type...you are native.
Rendering depends on hardware, effects etc....
CS5 and MPE now provides a realtime edit experience in the timeline without rendering previews (for many fx.)
All exports to a final movie  require "Rendering".  The speed of that depends on the hardware and effects etc but the quickest is usually if you are rendering a movie that matches your Project.
BTW: you need to think about what the final use of the movie is.  That determines what you will export.  It may not be the fastest.

  • What's the fastest Compression Codec?

    I need to make a series of quicktimes for clients to view from my server and don't want to wait hours and hours. Everything is DV, half hour shows, and I would like to make them very small, very quickly so the client can review and approve before I lay to tape. I already feel 15 fps and 320x240 is fine, as well as compressed audio. I know that some codecs take more time per frame than others and if I can smoosh a half hour show in 15 minutes, 10 minutes or something that would be great.

    Good luck.

    Ok, I'll answer this question.
    Hey -- mpg4 from compressor is the fastest with highest quality I've found.
    But you know what? Take some time for your customers and you might actually get some more in return. h.264 is the best you'll come up with for the megs you'll spend.
    Forget the hours. Using Compressor will still give you edit time on FCP too.

  • What is the best video codec for use in Keynote?

    I need to play some videos in a Keynote presentation. They can be 320x480 if necessary. Is there a recommended codec to use that minimizes playback stutter, dropped frames, bad audio sync and crashing the program?

    David,
    I also am having trouble with video in Keynote. I tried MPEG-4 and H.264 at 640 x 480 x 29.97fps (the "Web Download - LAN" setting in Compressor), but I always get pretty bad stuttering on playback. Is there any magic compression setting I'm missing here?
    I'm playing it back on various machines with the same results - 1Ghz G4 iMac / 1.3 Ghz iBook / Dual 1.42 Ghz PowerMac. None of them have super beefy memory (512 - 768MB) but I'd think the stuttering issue would be with the processor not being able to keep up, no? Or is this task handed over to the video card?
    The luck I've currently had as been with the Motion JPEG video codec. IIRC, it is supposed to be very light on the processor during playback so the overhead of Keynote doesn't seem to affect it as much. The trade off is the video files are huge.
    Thoughts?

  • What is the best video format/codec?

    Greeting Video Producers
    Please tell me what is the best video format/codec overall? And please list them from best to worse.
    MPEG 4
    MPEG 2
    AVI
    DVI
    QUICKTIME MOV
    WMV
    THANK YOU

    DVI isn't a format or codec; it is a digital signal protocol used for video display. DVI = Digital Video Interface.
    Please define what "best" means in your context ... "best" for what?
    WMV is one of the best in terms of viewer compatibility for web video, but it is not any good for DVD delivery.
    MPEG-2 is one of the best for broadcast server-based playback and is required for DVD-Video delivery, but it is one of the worst for editing.
    MPEG-4 is a more efficient codec than MPEG-2, but isn't as compatible for web delivery as WMV or Flash.
    AVI is a container.
    MOV is a container.

  • What's the fastest way to share files live between 2 Macs in the same room?

    Please can I have some advice on this scenario?
    I'll need to share HD video footage between 2 new Mac Pros in the same room. 1 Mac will be used to upload the footage and the other to edit it using FCP. The footage can be stored either on hard drives in the edit machine or on desktop hard drives connected to the edit machine (or if there is a better option I'm open to advice).
    What is the fastest way of sharing the files and what is the simplest way?
    Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks in advance

    What is the fastest way of sharing the files and what is the simplest way?
    Fastest way? a fiber channel SAN connecting the two machines to a common fiber-channel based storage array. Can't beat it for performance, but it comes at a cost (think $20K as a starting point, depending on the amount of storage you need).
    Simplest way? Some external media (thumb drive, external hard drive, etc.) that you shuffle between the two machines
    Intermediate: a NAS-based storage box on your network, although be aware that real-time editing of HD video can overwhelm many low-end NAS boxes.

  • What's the fastest way to kill the battery...

    hello friends. i was wondering what's the fastest way to drain my macbook pro battery so i can calibrate it? i want to kill the battery not the laptop if you know what i mean. thanks.

    Turn on wifi + bluetooth and turn the brightness all the way up, and if its a new mbp, turn off the automatic video card switching in energy saver. Then just play youtube videos / movies / games (anything that uses the vid card as much as possible helps) till it goes flat.

  • What is the fastest CPU I could put in Satellite Pro L20

    This is a desperate request for help!!
    The Football Manager 2010 is coming out soon and my laptop needs to be up to scratch.
    I know I need to upgrade it because Football Manager 2009 nearly killed it!
    At the moment I have 1.4ghz Intel Celeron M chip and 704mb of ram.
    What is the fastest chip I could put in? I've done a bit of research and found I can only have 2gb of ram
    The laptop is in perfect working order so I don't want to buy a new one just for the sake of it and its served me well over the last 4 years - I've dropped it enough times! Just need to speed it up a bit!

    Hmm... Do you really want to upgrade the pretty old Satellite Pro L20? I mean new notebooks are not so expensive anymore and I doubt that you will get a strong performance boost with new CPU.
    Anyway, in your notebook is only the preinstalled CPU pretested and nobody is able to say what other CPUs will run. But you should look on the specifications for other Satellite Pro L20 notebooks. If another L20 is equipped with faster CPU, it should also work in yours. You can try it but in worst case it will not work.
    Good luck!

  • What is the fastest way of getting data?

    With a scanning electron microscope, I need to scan a 512*512 pixel area with a pixel repetition of 15000 (two channels), meaning averaging over 15000 measurements. Simultaneously I have to adjust the voltage output for every pixel.
    I am using a 6111E Multifunction I/O board in a 800MHz P3. The whole task has do be done as fast as possible (not more than 20 minutes altogether).
    What is the fastest way to get this huge amount of data with averaging and output in between? (E.g. do I use buffered read with hardware triggering or is there a faster way?)

    Using the NI-DAQ API (not LabView) will give you a significant amount of more control over what happens and when to the data stream; which translates to a more efficient program. But you need to program in C/C++ or Delphi then. The Measurement Studio provides ActiveX controls that are like the LabView ones for C&C++ (they�re slow like the LabView ones though � not a lot you can do about the Windows GDI).
    What are you trying to sample 15000 times? The 512*512 pixel field?
    That�s almost 15Gigs of data! And it means you need to process data at 12.8MB/s to finish it in 20 minutes. I hope you know C, x86 assembly and MMX.
    I would setup a huge circular buffer (NI-DAQ calls them �double buffers�), about 30 seconds worth or so, to use with SCAN_Start. Then I would proces
    s the actual buffer the card is DMA�ing the data into with a high priority thread. Progressively sum the scan values from the 16bit buffer (the samples are only 12 bit, but the buffer should still be 16bits wide) into a secondary buffer of DWORDs the size of the screen (512*512), and you�ll need two of those, one for each channel. Once the 15000 scans are complete, convert each entry into a float divide by 15000.0f, and store it in a third buffer of floats.
    If you wish to contract this out, send me an email at [email protected]

  • What is the best video converter for DVD to iMovie? Either free or to purchase.

    What is the best video converter for DVD to iMovie? Either free or to purchase.  And one that is 'fool-proof' and very easy to use.  Many thanks, anyone who can advise.

    You want to 'reverse engineer' the compressed mpeg2 DVD file back to something iMovie can use?
    You need to convert the VOB files in the TS-Folder of the DVD back to DV which iMovie is designed to handle. For that you need mpegStreamclip:
    http://www.squared5.com/svideo/mpeg-streamclip-mac.html
    which is free, but you must also have the  Apple mpeg2 plugin :
    http://www.apple.com/quicktime/mpeg2/
    (unless you are running Lion in which case see below))
    which is a mere $20.
    Another possibility is to use DVDxDV:
    http://www.dvdxdv.com/NewFolderLookSite/Products/DVDxDV.overview.htm
    which costs $25.
    For the benefit of others who may read this thread:
    Obviously the foregoing only applies to DVDs you have made yourself, or other home-made DVDs that have been given to you. It will NOT work on copy-protected commercial DVDs, which in any case would be illegal.
    And from the TOU of these forums:
    Keep within the Law
    No material may be submitted that is intended to promote or commit an illegal act.
    Do not submit software or descriptions of processes that break or otherwise ‘work around’ digital rights management software or hardware. This includes conversations about ‘ripping’ DVDs or working around FairPlay software used on the iTunes Store.
    If you are running Lion:
    From the MPEG Streamclip homepage
    The installer of the MPEG-2 Playback Component may refuse to install the component in Lion. Apple states the component is unnecessary in Lion, however MPEG Streamclip still needs it.
    To install the component in Lion, please download MPEG Streamclip 1.9.3b7 beta above; inside the disk image you will find the Utility MPEG2 Component Lion: use it to install the MPEG-2 Playback Component in Lion. The original installer's disk image (QuickTimeMPEG2.dmg) is required.
    The current versions of MPEG Streamclip cannot take advantage of the built-in MPEG-2 functionality of Lion. For MPEG-2 files you still need to install the QuickTime MPEG-2 Playback Component, which is not preinstalled in Lion. You don't have to install QuickTime 7.

  • Sq01 what is the fastest way,

    hi all,
    what is the fastest way to detect coding that update to eban  from sq01?
    as i am facing problem with more than 100,000 PRs updated mysteriously (customer tab data ) without any history changes .
    i suspected it might be from query and i need to find the root cause of problem immediately
    pls advice

    Hi Ester,
    Haven't got clearly what you written.
    You mean to say, there is modifications done to query for updation?
    if it is a standard code then I don't think it is used for modification.

  • What is the FASTEST Internet Browser for OSX? (2014 Edition)

    What is the FASTEST Internet Browser for OSX? (2014 Edition)
    I'm a tech junkie, I love everything about technology.. especially FAST and EFFICIENT technology..
    I am currently using Google Chrome, and have nothing bad so say about it.. I like that I can "sign in" to Google Chrome pretty much anywhere (including my iPhone 5s), and instantly have access to all of my Bookmarks and Bookmark folders..
    I have seen a bunch of benchmark tests testing a bunch of available internet browsers on OSX.. however, the results seem a bit inconclusive and varying, and some that even support the notion that Safari is now FASTER than Google Chrome.. I'm not sure whether or not to believe it, and I don't really have the time/energy to conduct a series of tests on my own..
    What do you guys think? Is Google Chrome still considered the "fastest" when it comes to browsing/downloading?

    Has anyone used or have any opinions about Lightning?  I found some positive reviews around, and granted they all mention it's unrefined, they all seem to think it is the fastest.  Great as that may be, before I fork out the $2 I would like to get some more info regarding privacy and security.

  • What is the Home Videos tab within Movies for iTunes 11.0.1

    What is the Home Videos tab within the Movies list for iTunes 11.0.1?
    I can't find anything about it.

    There is a simple solution to error code 3072 when installing upgrades.
    Ensure all other users are logged out.
    This fixes the problem. From my experience so far you do not have to reboot your mac.

  • Windows Media Player cannot play the file because the required video codec is not installed on your computer

    I can not find solution to the issue "Windows Media Player cannot play the file because the required video codec is not installed on your computer" while attempting to play the file with *.wmv extension. Some computer fail in spite of said missing codec
    being present according the windrows media player in Windows 7 box

    If Rashid's link does not resolve it... consider the below:
    A)  As of this writing, the codec for GoToMeeting webinar recordings ("G2M4" codec) was only mentioned in *one* web page, of about 10 Microsoft web pages I read, to resolve this problem (and that codec is not included, yet, in their diagnostic tool),
    so if you're trying to play a GoToMeeting webinar, simply get the codec for it from their site:  http://www.GoToMeeting.com/codec
    B)  If Windows Media Player (WMP) will not even open the file, you won't be able to get the 4-character codec's name (like "G2M4") from WMP.  But VLC's media player will tell you that code, even when it fails to run the video.... and then you can
    search the internet for it. 
    C)  The problem sometimes is not actually a missing codec.  Other things that have helped others, some from: 
    http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/windows_7-pictures/the-windows-media-player-12-could-not-play-the-wma/bb823460-44df-4e8d-ba2c-42ec0e111e5a?page=3
    (1) running the System File Checker (SFC.exe),
    (2) opening WMP first (running both the 32-bit and 64-bit versions) then opening the file from inside them,
    (3) confirming that WMP was the file association for WMV files,  
    (4) Control Panel -> Hardware and Sound -> Sound, selecting my audio device, and looking for a "5.1" setting (I didn't have one), to change to "stereo",
    (5) checking Tools\Options\Devices\Speakers\Properties\Speaker Properties\AdvancedPlayback\ Speakers /HP\Properties\Advanced\Default Format, to select "CD or DVD Quality" (if that setting appears for your device),
    Good luck,
