Activity Forums Adobe Premiere Pro Crazy Export Times!

    Posted by Katya Szewczuk on February 15, 2018 at 11:05 pm

    Hey everyone! Okay, so I cleared cache, I rendered my project and yet my entire project is taking about 10 hours to export. The footage is 4K with effects added to it and the audio is a separate file. It’s a 45 minute piece and normally it would only take 2-3 hours to export. I was supposed to get this video up today, but looks like I’ll have to wait a day or two to get it up unless it’s an easy fix.

    I am using Premiere Pro CC. Is it an update issue? Or could it be my hardware? Thanks!

    What are your system specs/sequence settings/exact export settings?

    And what effects are added to the video?

    doing a 2nd pass with noise reduction separate from lumetri often helps

    there’s no way to help you if you don’t say what your system specs are.

    For Premiere I’m using Premiere Pro CC and have been exporting with H.264 format with the Match Source High Birate Preset (as requested). There’s also a message that says, “Rendering required Audio Files” whenever I use this preset.

    what GPU is in your system? and where are you saving this file to? what type of media drive?

    One issue is that you don’t have enough RAM. You need 32 gigs minimum for 4k editing.
