Rendering in Media Encoder 2023 is extremly slow compared to Media Encoder 2022

I've been holding back on upgrading my workflow to the 2023 version because I can't get the same level of performance as the 2022 version, and here's a case in point: I tried rendering a 15-second comp using Encoder 2023, and it took a whopping 6 minutes and 30 seconds. But when I queued up the same comp in Encoder 2022, it only took 36 seconds. The difference is day and night.

And it's not just this one comp. It's affecting most of my general After Effects projects that I've tried to render in Encoder 2023. It's frustrating, to say the least.|

I'm totally open to working together and discussing this issue. I'd love to upgrade to the 2023 version and check out the new features, but if it keeps screwing up the performance, it's gonna cost me a a lot of time and money during production.


Here's what my specs:

  • AMD Ryzen 9 4900HS
  • RTX 2060 Max-Q
  • 16 GB RAM
  • Windows 11 2H22
  • NVIDIA Studio Driver 521.61
