  Sloooow NeoHD Render

  Posted by Dale Spetz on November 12, 2007 at 3:07 pm

  I am doing my first renders out of Vegas8 via NeoHD Codec v3.3.0 and the render time is painfully slow (30min project approximately 16 hrs!).

  I have Core 2 Duo (2.13ghz, 3.5ram). Dynamic Ram set at 0. Max threads set at 4. Quality set at “best”. NeoHD codec set at FilmScan1.

  It is a multilayered, somewhat complex project. Editing is done in HDV. Rendering is to HD (via NeoHD).

  Is my system just too wimpey for this work? Or, do I likely have something incorrect in the settings.

  Will a quad-core perform significantly better?

  Never mind. Pilot error, again!

  While I had my OS and source files on seperate drive, I had my scratch drive and render-destination drive as the same. This was fine for simple projects, but it caused a severe traffic problem for complex projects.

  Re-allocating drive functions sped up my render a mere 10x.
