I am using Sony Movie Studio Platinum 13 and have been trying to get a good render of ANY video for almost two days.

I am planning to upload to youtube, ideally at 1080 with 60 fps.

The video files I am trying to edit play perfectly before I put them into the Sony software, and I am not trying to add any special effects at the moment.

I am new to this so I am providing as much info as possible

The video files I have are .mp4 files recorded at 1080 120 fps using Elgato HD60. They say 1920x1080x12 while the project settings are on 1920x1080x32

My computer is old but has these specs:

Windows 10 PRO

2 Intel Xeon E5420 quad core processors @2.5 GHz (8 total cores)

14 GB RAM

Raid 5

NVIDIA GeForce 730 GPU

One 250 GB SSD

Two 150 GB HDDs

What I have tried:

Rendering to SSD and to HDD

Using video files stored on both SSD and HDD

Using Sony AVC/MVC, MainConcept AVC/AAC, and Windows Media Video V11 formats

Render template settings tried:

Disabling resample

Disabling and enabling "Allow source to adjust frame rate"

Disabling and enabling "Use deblocking filter"

Disabling and enabling "Two-pass"

Changing bit rates to higher than normal settings

CPU only rendering and GPU only rendering with CUDA (no difference)

Rendering to 60 fps and 30 fps

Using 30 fps files and trying to get it to render at 30 fps 1080

Rendering to 720 at 60fps and 30 fps

Is my old 2008 repurposed server pc the problem? I do not know what the motherboard is but I think it came with the Dell T7400 Workstation that it is in. Maybe I am just not doing a setting correctly in the Sony program? Your help is appreciated!
