    I’d like to install the new M100 codecs described in the Aug 13 post from AJ Metz. I understand this will speed up some rendering as well as allow Compressor to read M100 reference/selfcontained files. (It’s been crashing “Codec Not Installed”.) There are three codecs listed in my Library

    You can find the Codecs here, along with an instruction how to install tham. This should speed up your AE rendering dramatically.

The software codecs are considerably faster, so all File In/File Out will be much faster. The actual rendering will stay the same, though; so if you have very complex effects the read/write will not have a big share of the rendering time and therefore not affect the overall rendering time that much. But for “easy” effects this will be much faster.
