question about sony vegas

[Raven]

I have got my RvR vid put together, music added, all ready to go, now when i go to render in sony vegas it has given me a predicted time of 10 hours, is this normal?

Tech section perhaps?

Is this the rendring time (convert from x-format to y-format)? If so, click the button and find out, some can take a while, but 10 hours seems a tad long.

no there is no compression, all i have done is put in my fraps videos (already compressed) added music and added titles. i go to "render as" to create the finished file and it does (but has the massive timer on it) i did it over night as it was so long but it stopped rendering at the end of the first audio track for some reason so i have to do it again.

Fraps videos are uncompressed. Also, yes, 10 hours is probably correct.

You would be much better off getting virtual dub encoder to compress the files with the DivX codec or somthing, that way you'll have nice quality but around one tenth the filesize (if that).

Rendering videos always takes a fair while, depending on how many special effects you put in. Some of vegas's more flashy effects will probably add alot to the render time, I would encode the video segments then add them to the timeline, then when you come to finish it you should find the time it takes goes down a bit.

yeah thats what i had done, anyway given up with vegas and used windows movie maker, happy enough with the quality, its not great but the file size is small, 109 mb for 19 minutes video. just need to find a host now.
