With new version - render suddenly takes an hour
I have a project from about a year ago. It
- takes a pre-existing video
- chops it up into sections
- adds a page turn effect
- renders the results back out
This render should take maybe ten seconds.
The client wanted changes so I open the project and render the output file. Except it is soooo slow.
It renders at a normal rate for the first 15-20% of the project and then. Grinds. To. A. Halt.
The estimated time goes from 10 seconds to 2 minutes then 4 minutes then 29 minutes then over an hour ...
I thought maybe it was running out of memory but I show 60% memory available. CPU is only clocking 11%.
I tried changing the render output - uncompressed AVI, MOV, whatever.
Every time, when I watch it speed through that first 15% I think, 'Maybe I've fixed it...' But I never have.
Anything obvious I might be missing here? My recollection from last year is it rendered in about five seconds.
