For anyone that exports regular video, does it generally take an age to do? Even exporting on an Alienware with 1080 GPU they seem to take forever to render? Is there any advice on optimal video export settings?
Hi @DanS_1 the higher the quality the longer it takes. If you want 30 FPS and 20 sec duration, you’ll have to create 600 perfect renderings.
Every single frame is rendered in your chosen quality, therefore it can take some minutes.
What capture settings are you using?
Render resolution has the most effect on rendering time - if only exporting a video for preview you could use only 720p resolution instead of 1080p or even 4k. Rendering quality itself has of course also some effect on computation time - the high setting might save some time over ultra quality without too much of a noticeable effect on image quality.
Hope I could be of help!
