I’m using Premiere Pro CC. Everything is up to date.
I tried trashing the preferences as you suggested, and am testing this 7 minute AVCHD clip. Exporting with the same settings as a few days ago (vimeo 720p 23.987fps preset). I am exporting it to the desktop, and it’s still taking way longer than it should. It’s been running for about 30 minutes now and is only at 12%. I copied the project over to another drive so I could test the speed on a different machine, and a different hard drive. Similar results. Really slow on my 2011 Macbook exporting to the desktop… running the project through our mac mini server via ethernet, which for a clip like this should not be a problem. I’ve exported much more complicated projects via the server without issue in the past.
I can’t imagine what the issue could be! I’ve tried everything I can think of for days now, and all our projects are getting backed up because stuff is just taking forever to export. If you have any other ideas, let me know!

Additionally, I tried exporting a 7 minute clip yesterday – AVCHD file from a Canon C100… no crazy effects on it just a little fast color corrector – and exported it H.264, using the Vimeo 720p 23.987 preset, and it took a couple of HOURS to finish exporting. This was again via thunderbold through the Promise Pegasus R6. There is no reason ONE clip should take that long.

The CPU is not being overly taxed during export. I’ve already checked activity monitor. In this particular project, I am exporting DSLR footage to H.264 1080p 23.987. The footage is 1080p 23.987 fps. I’m not sure if that is an exact match though? I am changing the bit rate down to 8 for a smaller file.
It’s not even that it’s slow – which it is – but it literally gets stuck. I tried exporting the same sequence off a different hard drive (I copied the assets and project file over to a firewire 800 external drive…which I would expect to be much slower than the Pegasus, but wanted to see if the Pegasus was the problem) and it did the same thing.. just got stuck.. I left it overnight and when I left it was at about 12% and said it would take another 6 hours or so. came in this morning it was stuck at 26 % and it said it had 48 hours to go. That really doesn’t seem right.

Well I know I can manually drag it in the timeline, but I’m trying to avoid having to re-edit all that audio. I made lots of cuts and whatnot.
The source audio is just 2 channels.

Right, I figure the price of the 5D mkII will drop, but I am wondering specifically about the 7D and the 60D.

Aha! I watched Pluraleyes’s video on how to use it with FCPX and you’d think they’d mention that, but they didn’t. Thanks!
