Cutting/Rendering into 15min chunks at one time

I'm new to editing and i finally picked up Movie Studio. The reason I picked up the program is because I need to be able to cut and render videos of gaming commentary for YouTube. As many of you might know YouTube videos are usually 15min in length. What I am wondering is if I can cut a video that is lets say 2hr 30min into 15min cuts and than render all those 15min videos at the same time so they are all different files. If so can someone give a guide on how to do so. Thank you in advance I really appreciate the help.

No, there is no automatic tool for spitting out 15-minute chunks of a 2 hour video, Bkop.

But you can loop regions to define segments of the movie and only output that region -- then set the loop region to define a new segment and do it again, etc. It doesn't get much simpler than that.

Just set an initial loop region to 15 min., it should snap if everything else is set right.

Then render the first region, drag the blue bar to the next 15 min, then so on.
It goes very quickly, and doesn't get much more "automatic" than that.

You would have to post your complete render settings and video properties in order for anyone to have a clue.
