Media Encoder 22.4 VERY SLOW

Report · May 12, 2022

Updated to V.22.4 Media Encoder and have noticed that my export times are excruciatingly slooooooow.... I'm using M1 Macbook Air. What used to take about 20 minutes for a 10-minute video now takes HOURS!!! WHY??????

Hi MarcusBrody,

We're sorry to hear about this. Let us know the type of media files you are working with (format/codec, frame rate & frame size) & the effects applied. Also, please share a screenshot of the Export Settings.

Thanks,
Sumeet

Hi Sumeet,

Thank you for your response. I have uninstalled v22 so I cannot send you a screen shot. Here are the basic file types and settings:

5 cameras (GoPro, Insta One X 2, InstaGo, Fuji XT3 and XT4)

All files are H265 at 4K or above

Minimal footage at 50 FPS (a few seconds)

Timeline and export is at 1080P/23.976

Did not change any audio settings

VBR 1 pass at 16 target

Motion Graphics minimal

LUTs for the Fuji footage

Basic color correct on all camera footage

Subtitles

I have exported the same types of projects before using v15.4 and usually takes about 20+ minutes to export a 10-minute project.

If you need more information, please let me know.

Thank you!

Marcus
