| |  How long should it take to render a 2Hour Movie for DVD?
In Movie Studio 4.0?
at 6%, it is suggesting I have another 3h21m left. That seems, long, but I could be wrong. |

It depends on your computer and the complexity of your project and your render settings.
To give you an idea:
I have a Intel P4 2.6 with 1G memory (I know, not the best but it was when I bought it - will be upgrading soon)
*Project 1 was a 30 minute film - a very basic cut - took 1hr to render
*Project 2 was another 30 minute film - very complex with lots of track motions, media generators and effects and use of the magic bullet colour grading tools - took upwards of 30 hours to render
They were both done in Vegas 6 and both rendered out to MPEG2 with the same settings - a little different to movie studio but that shouldn't make a difference - it's all about how much number crunching your cpu has to do and how fast it can do it. |
