Hello,
Maybe someone can help me with this.
I just 2 days ago bought a upgrade from Movie Studio Platinum Suite 12 to Vegas Pro Edit 16 and the render time for a 30 minute video went from around 30 minutes to about 2 hours.
Now I've checked all setting between the two versions made sure I was using the same codec and everything but nothing the render still for some reason takes 2 hours.
Any help would be appreciated.
We only can provide some help after you give needed information of what you see here under C.
Okay I'm not sure what happend. I just started gathering that info to post with some screen shots and when I started to render in Vegas Pro Edit 16 to get a picture of the render estimated time it only went to 28 minutes to render the video. I don't know what changed? All of my settings are the same as last night. I'm trying to render the exact same video as last night that took me hours to render. Only thing I can think of is I guess is I turned off my computer as normal and went to sleep and when I woke up and turned my computer on it started working properly. I have no idea.
EDIT: I did notice something when I selected to render yesterday it said the video size would be 7GB. Today when I started a render it said video size 1GB. That's a big difference.
Whenever something goes south in Vegas Pro, before I do anything I perform a full reset of Vegas Pro, and shut down and restart my PC. Especially after running other programs and working all day, some programs may cause Windows to loose it's resources. So, shutting down at night and starting fresh today may in fact have been to quick and easy cure.....time will tell.
Hope so funny thing is like i said earlier is I've had the upgrade for 2 days so I did turn off my computer at least one other time and it did not fix it but this time did. So weird.

Without the required file properties linked above, it's another good story. Thanks for sharing.
Here should be the properties from Movie Studio.
And here is the properties from Vegas.
You have different project properties. If this is the same source material, one of them is wrong.
Not only the projectproperties are different also the rendertemplate of Vegas Pro 16. You listed here the customized settings of VMS 11.
But if you also rendering in the Pro version with the old Windows Media codec will never give any advantage.
Render it to a Magix AVC or HEVC with NVENC and you will see a big speed difference.
That just it. I don't know why those are different. The video I was trying to edit is the exact same video as the one in the other.
Rebur, tutorials have their own link at the top of this page.. That's the place to start.
Part 2 of this post is about matching project properties to your media:
