Premiere Pro CC 2014 and After Effects rendering SLOOOW

[Kevin Monahan]

Hi Christopher,
What happens if you close After Effects while rendering? Also see: https://blogs.adobe.com/kevinmonahan/2014/09/23/slow-rendering-of-after-effects-compositions-in-premiere-pro-sequences/

Thanks,
Kevin

Yes. Read it. Nothing else open but Premiere Pro CC 2014. Did the terminal global app nap disabler, also. Thought updating to Yosemite would help this but after working well for a couple of hours its back to render “creep.” I have used the cleaner and all the other “tips” I have gotten here and in the adobe forums/blogs. Seems I am out of options. Very disappointing as I have been an Adobe fan since Illustrator ’88.

Kind regards,

so is it the linked AE sequences that are bogging down the system? ya…terribly slow here. i have a 22:30 show with about 10 linked AE sequences and it’s taking about 5 hours to render to ProRes HQ. does that sound normal to the rest of ye? also, i’m on Mavericks, no Yosemite yet.

thanks for helping out a bonehead!

so far, i only see two solutions: go back and render out all the AE projects as rendered videos with their alpha channels like pre 2014 OR leave the linked sequences in the PP sequence, but render out the video with the layer turned off that has all the linked AE sequences. That one will render pretty quick, and then bring that rendered video back in to a new sequence and bring the AE layer over there and render. a little more work, but will save HOURS of render time…especially if you might have to render several versions of that original sequence (i.e., a different set of graphics, or no graphics – clean version, etc.)

thanks for helping out a bonehead!
