  AE rendering time

  Posted by Richard Mamary on September 23, 2007 at 4:53 pm

  I am curious about rendering time.

  I am archiving a bunch of VHS tapes to DVD, and QT, after doing some color correction work.

  I am using AE 6.5, working on a Powermac G5 Dual 2.0, running OS 10.4.10

  I just rendered the first two hour tape, after having done level adjustments, (throughout the tape where needed), and a 2% scaling to lose the black bars on the side and bottom.
  The render took eight hours.

  The second two hour tape, I did the same scaling, a similar amount of levels, but I also did a minor amount of hue/saturation and shadow/highlights.
  The render took over sixteen hours.

  Is this normal? Should the rendering time have doubled?

  Hey Dave,
  I appreciate you getting back to me.
  I though that doubling up was way too long, and that something must be wrong.
  Thanks for the confirmation.
  All The Best,
  Richard
