Share to youtube taking a very long time?
I recently edited my first video in FCPX. I used FCP 7 a lot and I actually like FCPX so far. Usually I would export a self contained QT file then compress to H.264 for youtube. I did not buy compressor with FCPX however, so I figured I would give the share to youtube a try. this brings up the share monitor (batch monitor?) The video is 3 mins and after about 5 or 6 mins it was estimating 4 hours in the share monitor. Instead I exported to QT, (took about 2 mins) then I dropped it into the old compressor to convert to H.264. It took 13 mins.
Any one know reasons why the share to youtube was taking so much longer? maybe my H.264 settings were slightly different, but thats a BIG difference.
