    Is it normal for a 12gb ram i7 system to need 4 hours to render out a 30min mpeg2 dv sequence?
    capture format is hdv exported for dvd authoring to internal 7200rpm drive.

    Thanks

    Hi Phil,

    It depends on what kind of effects you have in there, but it’s quite reasonable if you checked “use Maximum Render Quality”. The big hit you are seeing is likely because of the downscaling.

    Hey Vince

    Turns out downscaling is what caused the problem.the same sequence exported in hd only takes 20 minutes!i think ill just capture in dv in the first place.thanks!

    One of the costly areas in this scenario is the pixel aspect conversions…which take some calculations.

    Keep in mind these are CPU-intensive processes and it sounds like you’ve got one quad core processor…two would be better if this was a common scenario for you.

    I have found that I get better render times if I export native HDV then import the single HDV file and fit that into a DV sequence and export to DV that way.
