Encoding a 54-minute collection of odd-resolution computer sims in Vegas 5.
The first two clips and the last have audio, the rest have no audio.
I begin the AC3 "render-as" to make the sound track for DVD Architect 2. It counts up to 10%, indicates the estimated time as 7 minutes, then slows to a crawl, ultimately indicating a 2 hr 20 min encode, maybe. It seems to take longer the further into the encode I go.
I tried rendering the whole thing as a looped region; tried renaming the file and starting over; I rendered the existing audio as wav files and relayed them in; added a phantom sound track with its level at zero so something was there the entire length of the show. All still need an extremely long encode.
Normally the AC3 render is less than half the length of the show: a five minute video renders in a couple of minutes or less.
Why would a 54 minute show that has very little audio in it require upwards of 2-1/2 hours or more?
