The time estimate is way off in my experience. I’ve had it say it’s going to take 13 hours but then it only takes 5. You’re actually better off using a timer and doing some math.
I just purchased last month and I have noticed a huge increase in the time it takes to finish after the most recent update. I have a 1 hour clip that is probably going to take 2 days to finish. I love the software and love that they keep improving it and adding updates so this isn’t really a complaint. This software has changed my entire video editing workflow but I am really having to shuffle to keep on track. I was literally online yesterday looking for a second computer just to run this software. With all the bitcoin miners snapping up the GPUs that is quite a struggle. I will say from what I have read the source files make a huge difference in the time it takes to complete. I am not upscaling at all but the source footage is Ultra 4K so I just attributed the longer processing times to that since I wasn’t cleaning up Ultra 4K previously.
Well…I’m new to this software. Had it for around 2 weeks but in that time I’ve been using it constantly. My main reason is I have a series that is very low quality (not available on DVD) the sound is fine but video is over-compressed blurry…a 48 min file is 144 mb…This software has been a miracle for these files. But the processing time is super fast relatively speaking (for these files) It takes 3 to 4 hours for each file. But other things I’ve thrown at this software are MUCH longer…Like another series with equally bad video quality and only 30 min’s long each, takes twice as long…So it is something within the source…What I don’t understand is that no matter what model or settings or resolution - it’s the same slowness no matter what. Like it doesn’t matter. That file will crawl slowly in the process no matter what settings you choose. I don’t get it.
I think there is a problem they should resolve…when i first tried this program it was not that long to export!
I doesn’t make me want to use it anymore, it’s too long to wait
i hope they will read this and fix this problem
