Exporting 1hr video with PNG codec – 26 hours exporting time!

[Dan McGarry] “Thanks Walter, do you know if dnxhd is avaiable for premiere pro cs5? I can only find references to CS5.5 online.”

DNxHD [link] is offered by Avid as a free QuickTime codec, so it’s available to any application that can use QuickTime for output. You can download DNxHD 2.3.7 here [link].

The latest version of Premiere Pro (CC) supports DNxHD natively in MXF wrappers. Its performance is significantly better than using the QuickTime codecs, but I think you’ll see a big difference between QuickTime/PNG and QuickTime/DNxHD, too.
