Horribly long render times in premiere on high end PC

I have a 3070 with an i9-9900k and 32gb of 3200mhz ram but for months now and since I've switched to premiere '22, I've had up to 5 or 6 hour render times for 6 minutes of video. Does anyone have a solution. It seems as though my gpu just isn't doing the hardware acceleration yet my integrated graphics is disabled.

That is a disaster. I'm  on a 3 year old Surface Pro 6 with i7 and 16GB of RAM and it's fast, very fast. 6 minutes video takes about 3-4 minutes to export.

Have you tried downgrading to 2021 version? 2022 is known for loads of bugs and glitches. Many people have been complaining about export being buggy.

I posted this in Video Hardware recently as I can see (in Windows resource monitor) Premiere Pro appears to not be making efficient use of CPU power for rendering when it has more capacity available,

My scenario is slightly different to the original post but I'm just sceptical on how efficient the coding has been in later Premiere Pro versions.

I am using a hybrid ProRes method to create a Pro Res Master copy for then generating fast export versions, but earlier PP versions seemed faster to me.

The timeline is H264 4K 50fps with mix of some Lumetri correction and the MOGRTS. The Previews are all created in 4K Pro Res during Timeline Render which are then used for the final export.

I'm going to go back to an earlier PP version and conduct more simliar tests to see if my CPU is being driven harder than only 49% usage using version 23.3.1.

The 2070 Super GPU is used but I don't have that many GPU accelerated effects in use, so not at very high % use.

It has been suggested the MOGRTs I purchased as stock templates are not built efficiently, which could be another factor, but I would have expected the CPU to be pushed harder.

This tracks with what I'm seeing, but I don't think it's complex or inefficient mogrts. In fact, when I'm watching the Encoding window of Media Encoder, it will hang on some frames - the thumbnail doesn't change nor does the status bar or Elapsed/Remaining time displays. While it hangs, there is almost no CPU/GPU activity until it starts moving again. The elements that make it hang are the simplest of mogrts (from AE) with just an icon and text on top of footage. It never hangs on a full-screen AE mogrt or the footage with nothing on top. I built a quick workflow out of AE mogrts and this bug has broken it.

Hi dthree_pmi,

Sorry. What happens if you create new mogrts from the latest After Effects version? Any behavior change? Let me know.

 

Thanks,
Kevin

Any insight into the media and what you're doing with it? Are there effects involved?

There are effects and captions in h.264.

Hi JonesVid,

Sorry! See if you get better performance with the new version, v.22.4. There is an improvement in speed for specific formats. Let me know if it helps. If not, give us more info on those H.264 formats, etc. CPUs are not always maxed out with every format, so your experience may vary depending on your workflow. I'm sure the community would be happy to detail your workflow with you. I'd be interested for sure.

 

Thanks,
Kevin

Premiere Pro needs to be tweaked. Premiere Pro can also be buggy. Are you editing H.264? Are you editing Pro Res, BRAW or R3D files? Do your stats look a lot like mine?
