  • Final Cut Pro Export Taking WAY LONGER Than Usual

    Posted by Sina Ghi on August 17, 2010 at 10:59 pm

    Hi there, I’ve been using Final Cut Pro to edit video from a 1080p Canon Camcorder for the past 10 months, and since last week, whenever I’m done with the editing process and I decide to export the Video in 720p HD with H264 with AAC Audio, the exports take A LOT LONGER than they took before.

    It can take up to 2 hours to export a short 3 minute video..
    Whereas it USED TO take about only 30 minutes for the same footage before.

    Is there anything I’m forgetting, any setting I’ve accidentally changed or something?

    Please help me out,
    Thank you.

    (I’m using FINAL CUT PRO 7)

    You have to tell us in detail your workflow and settings for the export. Other obvious issues are whether all is rendered before export.
