  Rendering 1 hour video?

  Posted by Alex Vallin on April 25, 2012 at 12:05 am

  My pc is an HP touchsmart 310 w/windows 64 bit
  4GB RAM
  7200 RPM HD
  amd athlon dual core 2.9Ghz
  I usually render my videos flawlessly using an AVC/Mp4 Internet 1080p Preset.Will my computer be able to render about a 45 minute video?I will be doing intros and animated lettering(im doing a sweet 16)
  I work most of the time producing/editing/filming music videos so most of my videos are around 5 Mins long.Do you think I would be able to render the video? I film with a canon T3i and I use sony vegas Pro 11 along with after effects to to make special effects and animations.

  If not possible to render I wonder if its possible to get all of the video data and the VEG(Project file) and render it on my friends computer (Quad core/8GB RAM).He also has vegas pro 11.

  If your computer can render a 5 minute video, it can render a 5 hour video. The difference is time. Lots of time in your case. I have an old Athlon desktop at home, dual core, 2GB and it just cranks away for hours. You might want to check your email before it starts!!

  Yes, Stephen. You are right. But, having 16TB available I almost forgot what that was all about.
  (just kidding, I am blessed to have a great system.)
