InSaNe Render Times
It seems as if Final Cut is felling a little overworked. This is a screenshot of the audio render time I got last week. Even better is the pic my friend sent me today. (pic 2) Alright FCP, see you Monday!

The "about 8 weeks" made me laugh. I've seen some long render times in my day but nothing even remotely close to that. I'm going to bookmark this thread so I can come back to it later when I need to feel better about render times.
Looking at your timeline, it looks like the video is about an hour and a half long. I'm sitting here trying to figure out why the 4 day render time... do you have some type of crazy effects on it or something? I really really wish that apple would allow me to render with all the cores I paid for. You can do it with Compressor, why not FCP?

Can't FCS 3 export via Compressor?
I always got trouble when exporting via Compressor in FCS 2, but maybe this has been better in FCS 3 (I have it, but haven't tried it yet). Great pictures, by the way. 8 weeks. Funny as hell. |

I was talking about renders in FCP not using all my cores, not encoding using Compressor. I always prefer running Compressor separate from FCP so I still have the option to edit while encoding. Also, I could be mistaken but my unscientific opinion is that compressor seemed to me to encode faster when working off a single quicktime rather than from the timeline. I haven't used FCS3 yet so I can't speak for any improvements there.

Yeah, in FCS 2 I always got Compressor to crash if I tried to export via Compressor.
That being said, I expect some improvement in FCS 3, but I haven't tried it out yet. |

In compressor I had a render time of 28 hours... I should have taken a screenshot. I set everything to "Best settings" when i was downconverting. I canceled the render and changed one of the settings to "Better"... It happened a lot quicker.
