Hi guys,

So recently I was editing a video with Premiere when I noticed that there was a large amount of jello in my footage. I used Rolling Shutter Repair at very high settings and let it render (which took 7 hours). Rendering was fine and it played back perfectly. However when I went to export using Media Encoder, I noticed that it said that it would take 60 hours to encode. There no problem with my footage, sequence settings, etc, I’ve checked all that. is this normal? or is there a better solution as not using my computer for an entire weekend is painful. Thanks.

is this normal?

It is. The default setting is to NOT use preview files during the export process, so all the rendering you did while editing has to be done over during export.

Without knowing the data of that computer ... OS/CPU/RAM/GPU/vRAM, the number/type of drives used, the type of media used, the type & number of effects used (and how much of the sequence they're used on) ... that sort of thing ... "we" can't guess.

So ... give us some more information, we might be able to suggest things to help. Rolling shutter repair work does mean analyzing and re-creating significant parts of every frame, though ... it's not an easy thing on the computer. And if you've got a lot of say 4k long-GOP media that you're applying Rolling Shutter repair to ... that could be a load.

Thanks.

I am editing 2 minutes of 4K 30p footage. Using a late 2011 iMac with 8GB of Ram. Only 1 effect used, and that is rolling shutter repair. The footage has rendered and played back fine, so I don’t see why I should need so long to export.

Unless you 'rendered' into exactly the format/codec/details of your export, and are using previews in the export, how it rendered for playback doesn't matter. If you didn't set the preview quality way up, it uses low-quality quickie previews. The export is a different process.

A seven year old machine, with only 8GB of RAM ... well, that isn't a particularly hot beast to start with. Though 60 hours still seems long. How much space do you have on the drives, how many drives, and how used within PrPro?
