Encoding/Exporting issues

[tylerh63862900]

Hi there. I am EXTREMELY new to the Adobe Suite so I'm having a bit of trouble starting out. I have a video I've been wanting to make since the summer. It's a 30 minute mash-up of a bunch of Go-Pro clips from my vacation over the summer. Here's my specs:

CPU: i7-9700K set to 3.6Ghz

Storage: 3TB of NVME M.2 storage

GPU: 2080

And here's what I'm facing:

So as you see, I'm getting insane render times for just a 30 minute video. Any suggestions?

Export to H.265 will take really long time.

I would check that the footage resolution and frame rate matches the Sequence Settings resolution and frame rate and last that the resolution and frame rate in the Export Settings dialog matches. Any mismatch can cause trouble.

It can often be a time saver to first render out the project to CineForm/ProRes/DNxHR and then use that file in AME to encode to the desired format.

Some things that caught my attention.

H.265: big pita (should convert to an editable format first)

2704x1520? odd resolution.

Path is leading to C:\users. Not such a great choice. All footage, project etc should be on a dedicated video disk.

I just went through the same thing last night. I also just purchased Premier Pro, last night. Problem has to do with Intel quick sync not being enabled. In your picture it says software encoding. For quick sync to work, it should be on hardware encoding. If the drop down menu to select hardware encoding is greyed out, then you need to do the following. For it to be enabled, you need to go into your system bios and enable the Intel internal GPU(make sure seting in bios is set to "enabled" and NOT "Auto".) Won't effect your discrete GPU at all. So that when you open task manger, you see two active GPU's. Your 2080 and the Intel one. My system is VERY similar to yours, so it shouldnt be an issue for you. Figuring this out cut my render times by 50-75% and gave my 9900k a break, not running at 90+% utilization.

You using a gopro? I film with my Hero 7 Black at 2.7k res, then export at 1440p for youtube. I don't do 4k youtube becasue you can't see 4k content on youtube with a mobile device, only up to 1440p. Lot's of mobile users on youtube.

i9-9900k @ 5ghz all cores overclock.

1. I was exporting in 2.7K (Go Pro's in-between 1400 and 4K)

2. I'm not sure what format to export to, this was just a quick export before I do any color grading and transitions (I like having a backup)

3. Averdahl, I have no clue what the last part of your reply meant, if you would, can you shoot a reply back teaching me how to do what you just said?

It sounds like he is saying to do your editing/grading etc in Premier as usual, export the final project to CineForm/ProRes/DNxHR format. Then take THAT file and put it in AME(Adobe Media Encoder?) to export to your final desired format.

Also, you really should make sure your quick sync is up and running. Your processor is killing itself at 100% utilization in those pictures. Your chip won't go over 30-50% usage with quick sync and your render times will go down by 50-75%.

Yes, exatly what KingMidasNV wrote! 🙂

Mission accomplished!
