Your English was perfectly understandable. Yes, Oki, I did do all of those things on the 5 minute video, including scaling the green screen clips. Did not do any dynamic linking to AE, it doesn’t seem to behave lately.
Only thing I disagree on:
“But by default the in-out in most NLE is “I” and “O”.
So most likely that you or someone else unknowingly was changing the keyboard shortcut. ”I checked a quick tutorial on Prelude at the Adobe site and the guy in the video specifically stated use (number) 1 for in point and (letter) O for out point. No finagling of keyboard shortcuts here, I can tell you that 😉
Thanks for your input. Much appreciated.

Hey Chris. Man, nothing is as frustrating as being given advice that I’ve already tried, to no effect. I have, in fact, been transcoding my .mov footage to DNxHD in Prelude, and all that other stuff (except for handbrake. Is that better than AME?)
At most I might see a 5 minute difference in a 45 minute encode. I am enjoying, however, learning Prelude. There’s one thing about it that bugs me. Why did they set it up that you hit the “1” for in points, and “O” for out points? Why not “letter I” and “letter O” or “number 1” and “number zero”? Kind of stupid.
I will check out your link on smart rendering. Thanks!

I don’t think you got my point. I’m not being an ass. There are guys here who help me all the time but they forget I’m just a nobody doing nothing videos and will suggest I get components costing a few thousand bucks, or they’ll tell me to do stuff my computer is not capable of, so I was just reminding them, and you, not to bother with those suggestions. I’m sure you have more pressing things to deal with than giving me advice I can’t take.

First, using youtube 1080p HD preset DID increase/keep my encode time the same as my custom settings.
Second, I AM using CC 2015, and it DOES give you the choice of setting minimum and maximum bitrates in h264.
Third, everybody who knows me here knows my pathetic “workstation”, a consumer PC with an integrated Intel 4600 HD graphics card. For some reason, this does allow me to use Mercury Playback Engine hardware mode.
As an aside, while encoding my latest video, which is only 35 seconds, encoding went smoothly, but hung up for a few minutes over one scene which was completely static. My son wanted to recreate the Meathead Rob Lowe Directv commercial. The part where it shows just a picture on the wall, no movement at all, took a few minutes to encode, whereas the rest of the video flew by. Weird.
And, just to get you up to speed I’m a complete amateur who makes little comedy videos for my own amusement, and the 8 other people who stumble upon them. I have no deadlines, no Hollywood directors pacing behind me while I work. Whenever I post here it’s usually to ask about oddities like this one, a 5 minute video taking 3 hours to render. Not being snarky, just saving you the trouble of suggesting $2,000.00 fixes and such that I can’t afford, and don’t “need”.

Just tried it and it increased the file size from 76mb to 113mb. Tried encoding anyway and it took just as long. I’ve resigned myself to long encodes. Thanks for trying to cheer me up 😉

Thanks Chris. Turns out the faster workaround was to export with Premiere Pro. Luckily it was only a 34 second video. Seems to be a similar problem to AME repeating the last second of audio at the end of a sequence. They say they fixed that in cc 2016. Hopefully they can fix this bug with an update, although I doubt the situation comes up much.
Thanks again.

Because that’s what I’ve always read you should do. High bit rate. They only go to youtube. What bit rate do you suggest?

I just tried it, it brought me to where I could edit my previous post, but it said I wasn’t authorized to edit my own post. The noive!!!

Remove Quicktime, just install the codecs (QT Lite).

I really wish you could edit your own comments here instead of adding more comments. Forgot to add, encoded to h264.
