Question

Very Slow Rendering Time

Hello, I make (relatively) simple videos in PP. I'm on a relatively new system (2021 M1 MacBook). 

 

On multiple occasions in recent weeks I have sent video projects to ME to render, and the rendering is taking hours where it used to take minutes.

 

I've not changed any settings and the video content i'm rendering has not increased in size or complexity. 

 

The PP session itself contains 4K footage, a single audio file and some png graphics.

 

Has there been any recent ME changes that might account for the significantly slower speeds? I'm talking used to take 20 minutes, now takes 4 hours...

Update, it took Media Encoder an overnight rendering session to render what PP renders in less than 5 minutes.

 

Either a ME setting has changed in a recent update, or there's a bug or issue with data files.

What are your memory specs? Did you look at memory while rendering? Maybe your machine maxed out on memory and started swapping.
