VP8 Render times

CorTed wrote on 9/15/2007, 10:18 AM
I am rendering a small piece approx. 1:30 min, using Q6600 w/ 4gig and Visa 32 bit OS.
I noticed the CPU usage is 100% and RAM is 41%.
The program hung up once during render and froze the entire machine (required hard reset) Final render time was approx. 30 min.
Same clip on V7 rendered in less than 5 minutes.

Are there any 'render' settings I am missing... seems an awfull long time to render?
Anyone any input?

Thanks,

Ted

If your render settings are the same as you used with V7, you should, according to my preliminary tests here, see the same or slightly better performance with V8. I have had not render problems so far. Rendering m2t and m2v from graded m2ts.

LJA - what is a "graded" m2t?

"colour grading", colour correction..

Not sure if it is my system, but it seems I am having some serious hang ups when rendering, besides it being slow.
It has been freezing up a few times. Not using any color adjustment, just a lot of tracks 29 of them.
It definitely is rendering slower in V8. Just can't figure out if is the hardware, OS or V8...
I'll have to keep testing.

If you sure that the all tracks and content are identical with those rendered in V7 then something is wrong. The obvious settings to check are in Preferences/Video tab - number of threads should be set to 4 -- the Dynamic ram preview should NOT be set at zero but something above zero. I'm running a Q6600 w/ 4gigs and Vista 64. No problems. Everything rendering slightly faster than in V7.

If no reason for the slow down can be found you need to start isolating by rendering small sections at a time to find where the thing is slowing down.

I just realized you mentioned the OS as a possible variable .. can you load V7 under the same hardware and OS environment and do the render ?
