    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
