  • Exporting time on a short project seems too long

    Posted by Magicbrian on December 4, 2005 at 9:48 pm

    Everytime I export my project, which is under 4 minutes, using the Adobe Media Encoder it takes over a half an hour. Sometimes longer depending on the format. Is this normal?
    I have exported it as a MPEG2-DVD, a MPEG1 and as a Quicktime 256 streaming.

    Sounds longer than I would expect from my system. What specs ( Computer, RAM, processor etc )are you running the application from.

    Some effects are take very long to render…unsharpen mask, blurs, color corrections.

    I am using a Dell Pentium 4 with 768 MB RAM – windows xp and I have an external hard drive with tons of space. Also, there are so special effects in my project, just a couple of crossfades so nothing that should make rendering take long.
    Thanks for the help.

    Yes but will that really make that much of a difference?

    Prem Pro is a RAM hog so I suggest that the minimum requirement is there for a reason.

    Thanks for the help. I’ll look into squeezing some more RAM into my computer. Got any suggestions on good DVD authoring software? I have used ULEAD but it’s not working properly and it look too consumerish.
